Opposing counsel might want you to submit to psychological testing in a personal injury lawsuit. However, the testing can be extremely subjective, and you will need a Charleston personal injury lawyer to protect your rights. Our Charleston personal injury lawyers will consider the following:
- Review and research the specific type of psychological test, Does the test properly screen your condition?
- Is your condition in the authoritative manual, the DSM IV?
- Ask for the raw data from the original test instead of relying on opposing counsel’s summary of the material.
- Finally, they will seek a second opinion from another professional who can review the report.
Contact our Charleston personal injury lawyers if you have questions about submitting to psychological testing as a part of your case.
