Over my career I have covered a very wide range of evidence types, having been part of various multi-disciplinary teams whilst at the Forensic Science Service (FSS). I now specialise mainly in handwriting and signature cases. I worked at the FSS for 25 years and joined Keith Borer Consultants in January 2012. I have given evidence in Crown and Magistrates Courts in England, Wales and Northern Ireland (including the Old Bailey) on numerous occasions.
