Pre-Pleading Memoranda, a biopsychosocial formulation to aid in the defendants’ cases. The mission of Saphia Shaffie Consulting is to help assess a person’s risk of recidivism, with the purpose of recommending alternative sentencing and rehabilitation whenever appropriate or possible. We are able to achieve this by organizing evidence that consists of clinical assessments and interviews, biopsychosocial analysis, as well as testimony and collateral information provided by family members, friends, and colleagues of the defendant. This information can offer judges and courts a well-rounded perspective of the defendant and ultimately promote more equitable sentencing. In both the private practice and criminal justice settings, she has become more familiar with working and providing support to clients in short and long-term time frames.
