Forensic document examination
Questioned signatures, wills, contracts, anonymous writings and altered documents, examined to accepted forensic standards.
BEYOND THE OBVIOUS WHERE THE REAL EVIDENCE BEGINS
Independent forensic opinions based on evidence, not assumptions.
Professional forensic document examination is not simply about identifying similarities and differences. It is about determining the significance of the evidence and explaining every conclusion objectively, clearly and convincingly.
Based in Johannesburg, South Africa, I provide independent professional services to attorneys, businesses, institutions and private individuals throughout South Africa and internationally.
