Meet Tigerlily
Tigerlily Taylor is a Certified Forensic Document Examiner specializing in disputed signatures, handwriting comparison, and questioned-document matters involving significant legal or financial consequences.
Her work is centered on a fundamental principle: a forensic opinion should not simply state a conclusion. The examination should reveal the evidence that supports it.
Each matter is approached through a detailed comparison of the questioned and known writing, evaluating the significance of individual characteristics, patterns of natural variation, and the cumulative weight of the findings. The objective is an opinion that is not only scientifically grounded, but clear enough to be understood and evaluated by others.
In contested matters, that clarity becomes especially important. Findings can be developed into enlarged, annotated side-by-side comparisons that visually demonstrate the significant handwriting characteristics underlying the opinion—allowing attorneys, clients, mediators, and other decision-makers to see the basis of the examination rather than relying on a conclusion alone.
Tigerlily works with attorneys, law firms, and private clients nationwide in matters involving disputed wills, deeds, contracts, beneficiary documents, checks, signatures, and other questioned writings. Every examination is conducted with the expectation that the methodology, observations, and conclusions may ultimately be examined, challenged, or presented in a legal setting.
In addition to her private forensic practice, Tigerlily serves as Director of Admissions and a faculty member at the International School of Forensic Document Examination, where she contributes to the training and mentorship of future forensic document examiners.
