Questioned Document Examination

Questioned Document Examination is the forensic practice of analyzing handwritten, typed, or printed documents to determine their authenticity or origin. Experts examine features like handwriting style, ink composition, paper type, and any alterations or forgeries. This process helps identify whether a document is genuine, modified, or counterfeit. It is often used in legal cases involving fraud, disputes, or document authentication. The goal is to provide objective, scientifically based conclusions that can be used as evidence in court or investigations.
