Family Dispute Lie Detector Test

Family arguments become intractable when everyone is convinced they already know the truth. Money goes missing from a parent's account, an inheritance does not add up, a sibling denies something everyone else believes, or an allegation is made in the middle of a separation and hardens both sides.

We act as a neutral outsider. Nobody in the family is our client's ally — our job is to test agreed questions properly and report what the data shows. That neutrality is often the only thing both sides will accept.

Testing happens at a home or a private meeting room, takes around 30 minutes per person, and produces a same-day result with a written report for each person tested.

Where two family members are in dispute, the most productive arrangement is usually for both to be tested on the same questions, agreed in advance by both. Each person is examined privately and receives their own report; nobody sits in on anyone else's session.

We are careful not to become a weapon in a family row. If it becomes clear that one person is being pressured into a test, we stop. Consent has to be genuine, in writing, and given on the day.

We do not test anyone under 18. Where allegations concern the safety or welfare of a child, a lie detector test is not a substitute for the proper route — social services, the police, or family court — and we will say so directly.

Adults involved in family proceedings sometimes use a test to support their own account. If that is your situation, speak to your family solicitor first about whether and how it may help; courts in the UK are not bound to accept this kind of evidence.

Call 0330 088 5207 and describe the situation. We will tell you honestly whether a test can address it, what the questions would look like, and what it costs before you commit anything. A £50 deposit holds the appointment.

Where several family members are being tested in one visit, we quote a reduced per-person rate.

Frequently asked questions

Can both sides of a family dispute be tested?

Yes, and it is often the fairest approach. Both parties agree the questions in advance, are tested separately, and each receives their own report.

Do you test children?

No. We only test adults aged 18 or over who have given informed, written consent.

Will a test help in family court?

It may support your account, but UK courts are not obliged to admit lie detector evidence and any weight is at the judge's discretion. Always take your solicitor's advice first.

Who receives the results?

The person tested and the person who commissioned the test. Nothing goes to anyone else without written instruction.

Can you test in a care home or hospital?

We can attend most private settings with permission from the venue, provided the person being tested is well enough and consents freely.

How much is it for two people?

Two examinations in the same visit are quoted at a reduced per-person rate rather than double the single price. Call us with the details.
