Our state-of-the-art programs and assessments are changing how domestic and family abuse matters are handled in family, criminal and civil courts. Our extensive experience and expertise enables the legal community to prepare to prove or disprove allegations of violence or abuse.

All assessments are conducted by a multi-disciplinary team of professionals with significant experience in dealing with these sensitive cases. Our associates are not only qualified to perform the investigation and research, but also qualify as experts for purposes of testifying at trial or in arbitration hearings.
