Pertinent Information  

​

​T.C.A.’s handwriting and signature analysis closely identifies unique traits and characteristics

to support authentication while simultaneously examining documents for alterations, indented impressions

and obliterations. Graphoanalysis, live ink analysis, and word-processed analysis may also be utilized to

support authentication.

​

It is important to note that TCA must examine the original item in order to confirm it’s authenticity. This is because

details such as writing pressure, erasures, and ink color may not be clear on copies. Additionally, dot and dust

specks may appear if a copied version was provided. If an original item in not available for review, a high quality copy

may, in some instances be acceptable.
