Forensic Document Examination Results You Can Trust
For over a hundred years the courts have relied upon expert examiners to resolve questions of handwriting, hand printing, and signature authorship. Simultaneously, documents have evolved with advances in writing instruments, stamping devices, and the rise and availability of digital printing techniques.
KDX Forensic Consulting is a Chicago-based Forensic Document Examination firm with over 8 years of experience working on behalf of the United States Federal Government, law enforcement, and the private sector. In addition to being Handwriting Experts, we have extensive experience in the examination of all components of documents including the examination for the presence of alterations.
Why you should Consult a Forensic Document Examiner
Handwriting, unlike other types of evidence, is something that is understandable by everyone and as such it is therefore natural for you to want to compare it yourself. We frequently hear from potential clients that “the signature looks just like” the purported signatory’s signature, but were you aware that research has shown that a layperson is nearly 13 times more likely than a Forensic Document Examiner to incorrectly call a simulated signature to be genuine?
Forensic Document Examiners are not just Handwriting Experts. We undergo extensive training to be able to conduct thorough examinations that include looking for evidence of simulations and other alterations that may be present. After a complete and thorough examination, we provide our clients with a comprehensive report explaining in detail all findings and, when appropriate, including easily understood illustrative aids.
From the initial consultation to providing testimony, we work with you at each step to ensure you are fully informed.
