About Alcohol and Drug Evaluation
Alcohol and Drug Evaluation provides alcohol and drug assessments that aren’t DUI evaluations in metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. Their evaluations may be court ordered or self-referrals. They accept self pay and publish the price of these evaluations on their website.
Evaluations Meet Court Mandated Requirements
Payment must be made on the same day you schedule the appointment and not on the day of the appointment. Drug and alcohol evaluations may be needed to meet court mandated requirements for misdemeanors or felonies.
These may be requested after several types of charges, including assault, battery, burglary, and robbery. Your appointment can take up to one hour to assess your situation and make a recommendation to the court.
Standardized Psychometric Tests to Mitigate Your Sentence
The assessments are conducted at the office and based on the Addiction Severity Index Instrument or The Michigan Alcohol Screening Test and Drug Abuse Screening Test. These are standardized psychometric tests, and the results are shared with you when completed.
A written report is also prepared and shared with the court as necessary. These assessments are typically used in court sentencing to mitigate or reduce the length of your sentence or in a diversion program to substitute treatment in lieu of all sentences.
