Your Report. Your Judgment. Your Responsibility.
ForensicShield is a clinician-controlled quality assurance tool configured for forensic social work. It reviews work you have already completed and identifies areas that may benefit from additional attention before a report is finalized or testimony is delivered. It does not write reports, generate conclusions, or contribute to clinical opinions.
A review configured for how forensic social work is actually practiced — and how it is challenged.
Scope of practice is the line opposing counsel probes first in a forensic social work evaluation, and it is where ForensicShield begins. Reports are routed through a discipline-specific configuration with a scope-of-practice review pass — examining whether opinions stay within LCSW or LMSW licensure and competence — plus professional-standards calibration informed by the NASW Code of Ethics, NOFSW standards for forensic social work, and the AFCC model standards for custody evaluation. You remain the social worker, the expert, and the signatory; the tool only surfaces what may warrant a second look.
ForensicShield also supports forensic psychology, forensic psychiatry, and neuropsychology — each with its own discipline-specific analysis configuration.
Opposing counsel is preparing this way.
The attorney across from you at your next deposition may run your report through an AI tool that analyzes every sentence for inconsistencies — tools of this kind can cross-reference an expert’s testimony across cases, flagging where today’s opinions sit uneasily beside something you said two years ago.
The same tools draft custom cross-examination built around the specific choices in your evaluation — whether an opinion stays within your scope of practice, how collateral sources were weighed, the inferential leap from observation to recommendation — and surface admissibility challenges before you ever take the stand. This capability is increasingly within reach as legal-AI tools mature.
The question is no longer whether opposing counsel is preparing this way — it is whether you are preparing at the same level. Tools of this kind were built to help attorneys challenge expert testimony. ForensicShield was built for the other side of that table: to put your preparation on equal footing.
The same rigor you bring to your reports.
Structured pre-finalization review is standard practice in medicine, law, and engineering. ForensicShield brings that discipline to forensic social work — without taking anything away from your expertise. You remain the author, the expert, and the signatory on every report.
Catch it before you sign it.
Run your draft through ForensicShield before your name goes on the report. You’ll see where scope-of-practice boundaries, collateral-source documentation, and the inference from observation to recommendation may warrant attention — while the document is still yours to strengthen, not after opposing counsel has built their cross-examination around it.
Encrypted, compartmentalized, auditable.
Your reports move through infrastructure built to the same standards as classified national-security systems: application-layer AES-256-GCM encryption, customer-managed KMS keys, PHI never leaving the AWS security boundary, and every access logged. The platform is HIPAA compliant. Use the tool with full confidence in where your data goes.
Describable on the stand.
ForensicShield is a professional instrument — comparable to peer consultation, Westlaw, or statistical software. If you’re ever asked to describe it in testimony, the framing is straightforward: a structured methodology review used as part of your quality assurance process. Sample language and engagement-agreement addenda are on our Resources page.
Anticipate the questions before you take the stand.
ForensicShield grounds its cross-examination preparation in patterns specific to forensic social work — the lines of questioning most often used to test scope of practice, the weighing of collateral information, and the step from psychosocial findings to recommendations. You may want to review these before a deposition so the questions you face are ones you have already thought through.
Discipline-Tagged Case Law
Findings are paired with landmark case law tagged to forensic social work and the admissibility standard in play. Every citation passes through a verification pipeline and carries a verification status — you read the actual opinion, never a summary you cannot check.
Group Practices
ForensicShield supports multiple evaluators in one organization — with shared analytics, batch analysis, and secure report sharing — for agencies and forensic social work programs that need team-wide visibility. Reports draw from one shared balance, with no per-seat subscription.
Built by a forensic professional. For forensic professionals.
ForensicShield is designed by Dr. Aubree Harrington, Psy.D. — a licensed forensic psychologist who has written the same reports the platform reviews.
Every severity calibration, every analytical lens, and every scope decision reflects how forensic psychologists actually practice. Built for forensic practitioners preparing for court.
HIPAA Compliant
BAA-covered AWS infrastructure. AES-256 encryption at rest. Every upload handled as protected health information.
