Independent Assessment Services offers Alternate Pre-Sentence Investigations in a format that is unique for your clients. We will meet with your client and discuss the Pre-Sentence format so that they are aware of the expectations during this process with us as, well as the State. We will then meet with your client and obtain background information, have them sign the necessary releases, and complete an Alcohol and Drug screening if appropriate. We will then work with your client to identify their needs and format a plan which is least restrictive in order to meet those needs. We believe that your client holds the information that is needed to make this plan, not a "tool" created by someone else. Independent Assessment Services will then review your clients prior Department of Corrections file (if available) in order to evaluate their progress on supervision and to look for signs of past compliance. This is important if a recommendation for probation is feasible. Finally, we will look at all of the mitigating factors, which are often disregarded in the State's PSI. We will then organize all of this information in a format which is easy to follow and leads to the most helpful recommendation for you client. Please contact us for more information and for questions on pricing. Please note that we will accept SPD cases in many instances. Our track record across the State speaks for itself.
