Our Services


Case Review and Analysis

If language plays a role in a legal matter and can be presented to the court as evidence, we analyze the evidence for merits and focus on determining the significance of the linguistic evidence in the case.

Confidential Verbal Consultation

We provide impartial expert opinion in a confidential manner. While our expert opinion is based on linguistic scientific facts, our analysis of the case is further informed by the pertinent Rules of Evidence.

Custom-Curated Written Report

We provide specialized, custom-curated expert reports for both plaintiffs and defendants. Our expert reports meet the requirements set out in Rule 53.03 of the Ontario Rules of Civil Procedure.

Expert Witness Testimony

We provide expert witness testimony at all court levels, including federal and provincial courts and tribunals. We participate in trial testimony anywhere within the province of Ontario.
