Forensic fingerprint identification services involve the analysis and comparison of fingerprints in order to identify individuals or to link them to a crime scene or objects touched. Fingerprints are unique to each individual and can be used as a form of identification. In forensic fingerprint analysis, fingerprints are collected from a crime scene or from a suspect and then compared to fingerprints on file or to fingerprints collected from other sources. This can be done through a variety of methods, such as visual comparison, computer-based analysis, or through the use of specialized equipment. Our goal at Nikoui and Associates, FISC, LLC is to provide solid and reliable forensic fingerprint identification services and to provide objective and reliable evidence that can be used in court, or litigation process to help establish the identity of individuals involved in the case, either criminal or civil.

The process of fingerprint processing typically involves sequential physical and chemical processes, capturing images of finger and palm marks, evaluating, and extracting unique features from the print image, full documentation and preservation of the recovered prints and eventually comparing those features to the known fingerprints of individuals to determine association or exclusion.
