NYPD Psychological Disqualification Appeals

NYPD Psychological Disqualification Appeals

Among the many questions a disqualified candidate may have the most common question is:

Will I win an an NYPD Disqualification Appeal?

Successful appeals mostly depend on the facts of your case. But having an experienced appeals attorney on your side greatly increases your chances of success. Speaking with someone with 19 years of experience and prior experience with the NYPD Legal Department I would be able to give you an in-depth analysis and insight into your chances.

Can I clear my name? If you had a successful appeal that would clear your name. Ther are are no other name clearing possibilities.

I’ll will this affect me when I apply for other jobs?

A disqualification from the NYPD would be known by all the other law enforcement agencies you apply to. Additionally, other law enforcement agencies will take your fingerprints to get an FBI print out showing the other agency to tried to join. Therefore being dishonest in this process is not really an option.

What if I withdraw?

You can withdraw but the withdrawal does not change the fact that your file from the previous disqualifications will be considered and referred to in the next psychological evaluation process.

Should you appeal an NYPD Psychological Disqualification?

Should you appeal an NYPD Psychological Disqualification?

Should you appeal an NYPD Psychological Disqualification?

After the initial frustration, disappointment and heartbreak of receiving an NYPD disqualification and certainly after spending 15 or 20 hours processing at the NYPD Candidate Assessment Division a candidate’s first question is: Should I appeal?

Certainly it will not get any worse if you appeal because you are currently disqualified. Your appeal could get reversed and NYPD disqualifications are getting reversed with increased frequency at second interviews at Lefrak City Plaza or the NYPD Candidate Assessment Division located at 235 E. 20th St.

By not appealing your NYPD disqualification would become permanent. The withdrawal option has a limited value insofar as if your true goal is to be an NYPD Police Officer they will take out that disqualification file that you did not appeal and hold that against you and additionally accuse you of consenting to the disqualification because you didn’t fight back and appeal when you got your first one.

I have been assisting NYPD Psychological Disqualification candidates for 19 years. What I see is candidates with compelling arguments that their disqualification was unjustified are being restored to the eligible list for NYPD Police Officer.

I would be glad to discuss your NYPD disqualification with you during a free consultation.

Chances of Reversing a NYPD Psychological Disqualification

If you are currently disqualified, you have two chances to succeed. Your first chance may occur if you wind up having a positive outcome after a re-interview at the NYPD Psychological Disqualification NOPD phase. It is extremely important that you have a knowledgeable, experienced attorney and seasoned mental health professionals to help, guide and prepare you for any re-interview.

If you are unsuccessful, you do have a second chance to win with an appeal to the New York City – Civil Service Commission, who holds hearings and could rule that your disqualification was improper. Candidates have had their NYPD Psychological Disqualification reversed at the NOPD re-interview. Additionally, candidates have had their disqualifications reversed after hearings at the Civil Service Commission. However, your  disqualification will not be reversed unless you take action.
