In reference to Infidelity and Private exams, please read the following:

The fee is $450.00.  A $100.00 deposit is required to hold your appointment time.  The remaining $350.00 is due at the time of the appointment. This deposit becomes non-refundable if the exam is cancelled within 48 hours of the exam or if the appointment results in a no-show.  A no show is considered after 15 minutes past the appointment time.  A one time reschedule is allowed for an additional $100.00 deposit within 48 hours of the original appointment, the remainder is due at the time of the rescheduled appointment.  After that,  any deposits are non-refundable.  Any cancellations resulting in a refund prior to 48 hours before the exam will result in a $10.00 cancellation fee to cover our processing costs.  Please see Online Payments to complete the deposit after an appointment date and time is set.

Up to four questions can be asked during the exam, however, the test is more accurate with fewer questions. The questions must be very specific and cannot have “and/or” in the wording.  All of the questions must relate to a single issue i.e. infidelity. The questions must be based on a specific act that someone did or did not do.  No thoughts, opinions or intentions can be covered in the questions. 

Examples of acceptable questions are: 

                        Since you have been married to your wife/husband, have you had                                 sexual contact with anyone other than him/her?

                        Did you ever have any sexual contact with (insert name here)?

            Poor examples of questions are:

                        Do you love your wife/husband?

                        Did you ever make arrangements to meet someone you are attracted                             to?

                        Do you want to be with your wife/husband?

There are many studies that have shown the polygraph to be anywhere from 80% to 95% accurate.  I suggest doing your own research on the accuracy.  

The exam will be by appointment only and will be conducted at our office.  Only the person undergoing the exam and the examiner may be in the room.  Anyone else will need to wait in the waiting room. All ow a mimimun of one and half hours to complete the process at the time of the appointment.  

In the days prior to the exam, please do not discuss the issue or argue about the issue prior to the exam.  This will cause undue stress on the person undergoing the exam.  All questions will be reviewed with the person undergong the polygraph examination,  there will be no surprise questions.  

The results will be in a written report which will be emailed within 24 hours of the completion of the exam.

Please note, we will not conduct any child abuse exams without an investigation by the proper authorities.

Pregnant individuals will not be tested.  Examinees found to be under the influence of alcohol or illicit drugs including marijuana will not be tested.  If anyone is found to be pregnant and/or shows any evidence of being under the influence including strong odor of marijuana and alcohol, they will not be tested and the deposit will be forfeited.  

Professional counseling is highly recommended.  Do not make any life changing decisions based solely on the polygraph exam.

BY PAYING THE DEPOSIT OR EXAM FEE, YOU AGREE TO THE ABOVE TERMS.  PAYMENT AT THE TIME OF THE EXAM WILL ONLY BE ACCEPTED IF THE CARD HOLDER IS PRESENT IF PAYING BY CREDIT CARD.
