Illustrative Scenario: Questioned Document Examination for Authenticity
Suppose beneficiaries dispute the signature on a will. Our document examiners would compare it with genuine reference signatures under magnification and angled light, looking at handwriting features, stroke order and the paper.
The Challenge
Beneficiaries challenge the signature on a will, suspecting it was simulated or traced.
Forensic Approach & Methodology
Examiners would compare genuine reference signatures from around the same time with the questioned signature, looking at line quality, tremor, pen pressure, pen lifts and stroke alignment under magnification.
Outcome & Impact
What an examination could establish: Whether line quality, stroke alignment and pen pressure are consistent with the reference signatures, set out in a court-ready report. Whether evidence is admitted is decided by the court in each case.
