Legal Assesments

Expert Opinion Assessments & Reports

Personal Injury Assessments (children and adults) – following an accident or traumatic event insurance companies sometimes contract an assessment of psychological injury in order to help inform what therapeutic support is needed in order to aid recovery. Our experienced clinicians can provide a high quality and timely assessment report. 

Expert Opinion assessments (children and adults) – these assessments are often instructed by solicitors or Court in order to support with pre-proceedings and care proceedings, cognitive and capacity assessments and criminal law and prison assessments. 

For further information on either of the above please see our Expert Opinion section

As you may be aware, on the 14th April 2025 the Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund (ASGSF) announced changes to the Fair Access limit with a reduction of funding to £3000 and the discontinuation of the separate Fair Access Limit for specialist assessments.

We are currently working really hard to amend quotes for ongoing therapy work to fit within the new Fair Access Limit and working closely with Adopt South West and other local RAAs. We are also working closely with other specialist adoption support providers and therapeutic organisations including DDP connects and Theraplay UK to explore how we can continue to deliver specialist therapies within this limit.

If you are waiting for a new package of therapy please look out for correspondence from ASW or your regional adoption support agency, as they will need to regain your consent for the amended therapy contract.

If you are concerned about the impact of the delay on your family or have questions about the therapy or assessment you are waiting for please get in touch with Ellen or Jen and we will do our best to support you.

We will be contributing to a wider response to this and the following is a link to a petition requesting government action – Petition · Action Against ASGSF Changes (Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund) – United Kingdom · Change.org
