“Thomas Grogan, Thanks so
much for the fast turnaround on this item. We will continue to
use your service in the future. This is a wonderful service for
our industry, finally we have a place to go where the professional
service and integrity is without question. We needed an autograph
authenticated immediately and Forensic Document Laboratory Inc.
was there for us. They were able to handle such a high valued
item with no problems at all. I would recommend any firm or individual
to use this service prior to selling or offering a piece for
sale.” (Referring to signature authentication of W. H.

“Dear Mr.
Grogan: I very much appreciate your level of expertise and the
diligence which went into the handwriting analysis of a Power
of Attorney, which proved to be a forgery.
While many documents
may be important and involve both money and power, few could
be as important as one which has the implied power to control
the quality of life of a man who cannot speak for himself.
Thanks to your hard work, we have the credible evidence needed
to take the matter before a court of law. Your contribution to
our efforts has been priceless.
In addition to being an expert
in your field, truly, you put your heart into your work - a rare
combination. I would highly recommend your services to anyone
who suspects forgery.Thank you again.”

“Dear Mr. Grogan: My Mother and I would
like to thank you for the excellent analysis you performed on
our family documents. We were at the end of a bleak legal issue
that was out of our control. Now, with your help, we have a renewed
sense of hope that is leading us down the path of delayed justice.
The truth is going to help us when we go to court and we couldn't
have done it without you.
I know this is just another step in the
process; but we are confident that if you are with us in the
hearing, we will prevail. Thank you for your expedient, professional
analysis.”

“Dear Thomas
Grogan, Thank you very much for your analysis of the handwriting
documents and services from the historical files. Your expertise
and insight provided our extended Selsor family some validated
handwriting evidence that proved our ancestral origins to the
Hessian Soldier from Kleestadt Germany. It is nice to bring a
sense of closure to this question of origin that the family has
been trying to answer for decades now.”

"Dear Mr. Grogan, On behalf of the
North Carolina Paralegal Association, Inc., I would like to thank
you for your part in making our recent mid-year seminar in Cary
a success. It was a pleasure to have you on our program. The time
and effort you spent on your presentation is greatly appreciated.
Our group was truly enlightened as to forgery-proofing our signatures
with your helpful advice. All of the helpful tips we need to take
to protect ourselves from identity theft and becoming victims of
fraud were covered in this presentation. In addition, your services
in all of your areas of expertise will be considered in our professional
lives whenever our cases require forensic document examination
and expert witness in that regard. Continuing legal education is
an essential element in all law-related professions, including
the paralegal profession. Without generous support from people
like you, it would be impossible for NCPA to conduct these educational
activities. Again, thank you for your support.”

"Dear Mr. Grogan:
After the death of my sister I was in need of a handwriting expert to determine
the authenticity of her signature on her Will and several documents in question
that may have to be used in a court of law regarding her estate. I called you
late on a Friday afternoon and you called me back with 30 minutes. We talked
over 45 minutes and I knew from the way you explained your services and your
genuine concern over my problem, I wanted to retain your company. My lawyer’s
name and telephone number were given to you and on Monday a meeting was set
to meet. My sister’s documents were given to you and within 10 days my
lawyer and I had the answers to our questions. There were several telephone
conversations between you and I over that period which you kept me informed
of your progress. (Thomas) has been invaluable to me and my lawyer. Thank you
for giving me peace of mind.”

“In March of (2006) the undersigned
engaged the services of Mr. Grogan to perform a forensic examination
of certain documents in dispute in a Will caveat proceeding. Mr.
Grogan met with me and very efficiently and clearly described the
terms of his standard contract and what he would need to perform
the examination. My clients entered into a contract for his services
and he performed his duties in a very timely manner and submitted
a very clear and concise forensic document examination report.
Based upon my experience with Mr. Grogan and the quality of his
work I can wholeheartedly recommend his expertise in the field
of forensic examinations.”

“Dear Mr. Grogan,
I just wanted to take the time to write and say “Thank You” for the
time and effort you put into my case. Having someone forge my name to “give
up” my rights to my home was such an emotional roller coaster, that I sometimes
did not know which way to turn. Coming across your business was one of the best
things to happen during this whole ordeal. I appreciate your professionalism
but also your manner in clearly stating to me what your process was to be. I
felt comfortable putting this matter into your hands. I have no misgivings in
the information you have provided to me as well as the state investigators. Again,
I thank you for your help, your knowledge of your craft, and your sincere concern
in dealing with me in my hour of need.”

“Mr. Grogan,
Thank you for your prompt and efficient handling of our recent
handwriting analysis. We
had a journal that supposedly was written by the plaintiff and had only limited
samples of his own handwriting for comparison purposes. Youwere able to
quickly give us the opinion that the journal was not written by him, an analysis
that helped us determine our litigation strategy.”

“Dear Mr. Grogan,
Thank you for your expert opinion as well as your professional
service. You helped my family and I expose forged checks in
excess of $200,000. Your expert opinion was the necessary evidence
to motivate the County Attorney to initiate charges against
the criminals. His office did not have the resources available
for such an expert opinion. We are now on the road to justice.
We have also initiated a civil case based on your expert work.
We anticipate retaining your services when we have our day
in court. Thank you.”

"Thom Grogan spoke … at our monthly
dinner meeting of Credit Professionals International here in
Charlotte, NC. Mr. Grogan's presentation was excellent and very
informative not to mention extremely interesting. Mr. Grogan
concentrated most on The Making of a Forgery and all that a forgery
entails such as proactive ways to reduce chances of forgery through
contracts, checking and savings accounts and credit cards. The
importance of using the same type of pen and color for public
signatures was stressed to stop identity theft. Mr. Grogan also
made our organization aware of what to do if we become a victim
of a forgery, such as, contacting the police department and credit
reporting agencies within a timely manner, contacting the financial
institution to obtain an Affidavit of Forgery and the importance
of keeping originals (if available) in a safe place. Mr. Grogan
provided our organization with the viewing of his finger print
equipment that he uses in his line of work. Thom Grogan will
be returning to speak at our North Carolina State Conference
of Credit Professionals International in September of 2005. His
subject matter will be more in depth and he will have more time
for a more detailed presentation. If your company or organizations
are looking for a State of the Art type of presentation, please
call upon Mr. Thom Grogan."

“I want to personally thank you for
the handwriting analysis. My girlfriend of six years left
my residence with no words or open line of communication. The
only letter I received from her was the notice sent to me via UPS
in which she had asked for me to not try and contact her. I,
of course, did not think the letter was signed in her signature.
I certainly appreciate the work you have done for me in determining
it to be her authentic signature. I can now have closure
to our relationship once and for all. I will be glad to recommend
your services to anyone who needs your expertise.”

“In September 2007, I had an opportunity
to use the services of Mr. Thomas Grogan of Forensic Document

discreet. He worked quickly and provided the needed documents
in a timely manner. In addition, Mr. Grogan went out of his way
to accommodate my schedule and specific needs. I would very much
recommend his services to anyone in need of handwriting analysis.”
