Dr. Tyson is a psychologist that a number of Mecklenburg county (and surrounding counties) courts refer people to for psychological examinations.
We found he is quick to take your money and is rather expensive, however slow to turn around any work product, sometimes in excess of 6 months.
In our experience we found his work product to be full of errors and contain statements which he implies are the results of psychological testing and facts. When critiqued by other professional it was stated state the tests he gave could provide the type of results he placed in his evaluation. His results and methods do not even come close to following APA guidelines.
In our experience he gathered no evidence to validate accusations, talked to no third party references and in general put in minimal efforts with little or no objectivity, often stating heresay as fact with no evidence to support his statements other than his opinion.
Research we performed showed that the tests he administered are of little value in truly determining a psychological profile as he does minimal testing, does not administer all the tests common in psychological evaluations and it appears he relies more on his opinion than data.
Our opinion is, if you know you will not fare so well on a psychological evaluation, and the opposing party does not have resources to hire a professional to critique the work, then this is your man. He will not find anything because he appears to put minimal effort in.
Our further opinion is, based on our experience, if you are in need of good litigation support, look elsewhere to one of the more reputable people with better credentials who will perform a more thorough assessment and provide a more credible work product
