Ethics as a Document examiner

Wednesday night I was on a teleconference about Ethics in the Forensic Document Examination industry.

Did you know:

A forensic document examiner is expected at all times to be: a non-advocate, non-bias, non-spurious, non-prejudice, impartial, skillful, informed, reputable, truthful, reliable, dedicated, publicized, thick-skinned, dynamic, qualified, an author, studious, competent, with integrity and wisdom, and of course ethical.

That is a lot of resonsibility & takes a lot of morel turpitude. It is almost the same standards by which we expect officers of the law, laywers, & judges to abide by....but that is another debate for another time.

We had a lot of tough questions posed to us, and as a Document examiner, we are held at a very high standard.

A word to everyone: Verify the INTEGRITY and the REPUTATION of anyone before giving them your money.
