Get a free physical evaluation to document evidence of torture

Physicians for Human Rights Verified Information

PHR’s Asylum Network offers pro bono psychological and physical evaluations to document evidence of torture and other abuse for people fleeing persecution in their home countries. In order to request an evaluation, asylum seekers should have their lawyer fill out the forensic evaluation request form and submit it at least eight weeks before the affidavit is required.
Available
Prior to the evaluation of a client, lawyers will need to provide the health professional with a copy of their client’s affidavit, prior medical records, and any other relevant information. Lawyers will be responsible for contacting the health professional and making an appointment for their client. Lawyers also will be responsible for securing an interpreter if their client needs one for the evaluation.
