How the price is worked out

What people usually ask before commissioning a report.

Can the final price differ from the starting price?

Yes, if the case needs more than the basics: more devices, more conversations or a comparison with other material. I tell you in writing before starting, with no surprise charges.

Is court testimony included?

No. It is quoted separately from day one: from €200 remote and from €450 in person.

Do you charge by the hour?

No. I charge per deliverable: a fixed quote for a defined scope.

When do I pay?

Usually a retainer when you accept the quote and the rest on delivery of the report.

How much is the first consultation?

Nothing. It is 30 minutes to see whether your case has forensic merit and what it would take.
