Forensic handwriting examination is the analysis of forged signatures, manipulations, anonymous letters, threats, tracking of content in documents, etc.
We have a long and solid experience in civil and criminal cases. We help you to the best of our ability and conscience. .
Our document and font technology laboratory ensures reliable examination according to forensic standards.
We prepare expert reports on laboratory examinations that can be used in Norwegian and international law.
Desk research and document examination is about establishing authenticity, origin and changes in written documents. We analyse both handwritten and printed documents, assessing whether signatures, text or inscriptions originate from one and the same person - or whether they may be imitations, copies or digitally manipulated.
In our laboratory, we examine details such as line quality, print, rhythm, ink and paper, as well as digital traces from scanned or edited documents. The combination of traditional handwriting analysis and modern optical and digital technology provides high precision and reliability.
Common cases we handle include:
- doubts about genuine signature on contracts, wills and loan agreements
- assessment of forged documents or applied surcharges
- analyses of anonymous letters and threatening letters, where writing style and language can be traced to a possible author
- assessment of digital manipulation in PDF and image files
- handwriting comparison between multiple people for identification or exclusion
The result of the analysis is documented in a expert report, which summarises the method, findings and conclusion. The report can be used as evidence in Norwegian and international law, and fulfils requirements for professional verifiability.
All investigations are conducted independently and confidentially, with high ethical standards. You get a thorough, objective assessment that can bring clarity to complex or contentious document issues.
