Evidence Inspection & Documentation - AFI-LLC Newsletter August 2021

Each month our agency publishes an interactive and informative newsletter for
clients and colleagues. Our newsletters cover news from associations and our
profession – from training and conferences, to legislative. We also cover our
services in the areas of Expert Legal Investigations and Medicolegal
Consultations of Personal Injury, Negligence and Death in Civil, Criminal and
Probate litigation.

The current issue is posted at www.DeathCaseReview.com/afi-llc-newsletters

DNA & EVIDENCE COLLECTION AND EVIDENCE INSPECTION & DOCUMENTATION
We mentioned last month we are working on a new course for legal investigations - Evidence Inspection and
Documentation. In a prior newsletter we mentioned DNA evidence collection services. These are not new from our
agency, and should not be new to legal investigations. DNA collection has its challenges and preparations, and with the
right training and supplies, can be valuable to clients. This includes knowledge and implementation of proper evidence
collection, documentation, and secure storage – and by request, transfer to an accredited laboratory for analysis with
known DNA standards. Similarly, opposing party evidence inspection is a valuable service to clients – and is as important
as visiting and documenting the scene. Of course, there are limitations – usually budget constraints. This area can be of
importance to preventing an ineffective counsel claim; and post-conviction can address an ineffective counsel claim.

How can you prepare and complete these assignments? What are the benefits to this process, as well as additional tools
recommended? What about review and analysis of this evidence and the process?
