In a TBI case, the neuropsychological evaluation isn't just a clinical exam. It's a set of controlled clinical instruments introduced into a legal fight where both sides understand exactly what the data can do.

This episode covers a 2025 New York case where the chess match started before anyone sat down for testing. The way the eval request was written, no neuropsychologist would agree to conduct it. What happened next is a clinic in how raw data access, validity measure interpretation, and the clinical community's own gatekeeping rules shape who controls the narrative in a brain injury case.

The report is what the evaluator decided. The raw data is what they saw when they decided it. Those aren't the same thing.

If you have a TBI case with a neuropsych eval in it, the report you received is the beginning of the clinical conversation... not the end of it.
