Signature Verification

Our Signature Verification service provides forensic examination and comparison of questioned signatures with genuine reference signatures to assess their authenticity and identify indications of simulation, tracing, disguise, alteration, or forgery. The examination is conducted using established forensic document examination methods to provide objective, well-documented findings.

What Is Signature Verification?

Signature verification is a forensic examination of a questioned signature to determine whether it is consistent with the writing characteristics of a known genuine signature. The examination goes beyond visual appearance and considers features such as line quality, pen movement, speed, pressure, proportions, connecting strokes, letter formations, and natural variations.

The objective is to identify whether the questioned signature demonstrates characteristics consistent with genuine writing or whether there are features that may indicate simulation, tracing, or other forms of falsification.
