Cutting-Edge
Make state-of-the-art the standard. As a leading Forensic firm, KDX has a responsibility to be at the forefront of innovation for both our equipment and security measures used to deliver your results.
Why Should I Consult KDX?
Unlike other types of evidence, handwriting is something that is easily understood by the layperson and creates a natural want to compare on their own. We frequently hear from potential clients that “the signature looks just like” the purported person’s signature, but research has shown that the layperson is nearly 13 times more likely than a Forensic Document Examiner (FDE) to incorrectly call a simulated signature genuine.
Here at KDX we are not just Handwriting Experts. We are extensively trained FDE professionals who are able to conduct thorough examinations that include looking for evidence of simulations and numerous other alterations that may be present in the evidence. After an examination is complete, we provide our comprehensive report easily explaining detailed findings in writing and, when appropriate, with clear illustrative aids.
From our first consultation to providing testimony, we ensure you are fully informed each step of the way.
