Graphoanalysis: Analysis and Authentication
of Handwriting on Photographs

FEES.
• $50 to analyze digital images of handwriting and tell you in an E-mail whether or not it is the same handwriting/writer, no details as to why or why not. Turnaround time depends on how busy I am, but 2-3 working days is about average.
• $75 to analyze digital images of handwriting and give you a brief written explanation in an E-mail about whether or not it is the same handwriting/writer. Turnaround time depends on how busy I am, but 2-3 working days is about average.
• $250 for a written Analysis and Authentication Report of the original of the handwriting in question. The report outlines all of the details of the handwriting that led to the determination that it is of a particular person. This report requires analysis of the original writing, not digital images. Turnaround time is approximately 2-3 weeks.

PAYMENT. Please make your payment by credit card in advance to joellesteele@joellesteele.com at www.paypal.com.

HOW TO SUBMIT HANDWRITING. To analyze questioned handwriting, I need a copy of the questioned handwriting you want me to authenticate, and I need a copy of an authenticated handwriting sample (exemplar) of the person believed to have written the questioned handwriting. For a quick analysis, I can work with digital images. They should be scanned in color at a minimum of 600dpi (preferably 1200dpi). Do NOT alter the image in any way. Save it as a .jpg and send it as an E-mail attachment to me at joellesteele@photorestorics.com. If you are ordering the full written report, you must send the originals (questioned handwriting and exemplar), insured, to me: Joelle Steele, PO Box 8492, Lacey, WA 98509-8492. I will return them, insured, to you.
