Were you one of those kids in school that never won penmanship awards and never got their papers hung on the walls like the other kids? Or, were you one of those kids that always got complemented on their handwriting and always made A’s in penmanship? Well, there is rhyme and reason to the differences that we all show in our handwriting.

 When we write, we manifest our feelings and personality into our writing. For instance, if your handwriting was shuffled in with hundreds of other samples of handwriting, could you find it? Sure, you could! Your handwriting is as distinctive as your personality. Keep in mind, that the same theory applies when analyzing someone else’s handwriting… their traits… good and bad, will surface. Understand that graphology provides you with insight into people that they may not even see in themselves.

Use this excellent diagnostic tool to see if your spouse is still in love with you, having an affair or really going on that “last minute” business trip. You will be amazed at the clarity that this service can bring to various personal situations. Prices are quoted per document page.

You applied for a new car loan only to find out that you have been denied…but why you ask? I have excellent credit – no late payments, no charges-offs, so why was I denied? The lender begins going over the accounts reported on your credit report – when you realize there are accounts that are not yours…somebody has stolen your identity. You dispute the credit reports, cancel all your credit cards but still want to know who did this to you!

Identity theft is terrifying! It’s frightening to think that someone is “out there” pretending to be you, racking up bills in your name, committing crimes or worse. It’s enough to make you lose sleep even before it happens and the reality after the fact can be equally frightening. Just think about how much information you put out on FaceBook and other social media outlets… very easy for a predator to take advantage of this information. And these days prospective employers check credit, too, so there is no time to waste in identifying a potential problem!

Small business owners think about this… an employee that you’ve hired is actually an illegal alien hiding under another citizen’s name and using their vital information - social security number, etc. Or worse yet, a possible employee has stolen a social security number from a deceased person and you never know it until the authorities come knocking on your door asking questions about your employee.

Here are some of the tools that the “bad guys” use to uncover your personal information:

1) Dumpster Diving – don’t put any vital information that has your social security number, date of birth or full name on any paperwork before first thoroughly shredding it;

2) Viruses and Trojan Horses – If you don’t know the person that’s sending you the email or if the subject line does not have a reference in it, then do not open the email;

3)Look alike websites – Look alike websites are familiar websites known to the victim that ask the victim to update his or her information, also known as phishing. Here’s an example: A “bad guy” imitates and creates a website that looks exactly like your bank, sending you an official email. You click on the email, you update the information, send it back to them and then the “bad guy” has all of your personal information to do as they wish. That is why it’s very important that you shred even the smallest tidbit of information.

Here are some “tricks of the trade” to help stop identity theft:

1. Avoid carrying more than one credit card, but, if you do carry a credit card carry it in a RFID sleeve – an RFID sleeve is a protective item made out of deflective material which prevents would be thieves from obtaining your personal / financial information from the RFID chip in your credit card [sold at www.MetroSpySupply.com];

2. Never carry your social security card or passport with you unless absolutely needed;

3. Never print your social security card or date of birth on checks;

4. Instead of signing the back of your credit card, write See Photo ID;

5. Never put sensitive pieces of mail in your mailbox, put them directly into an official postal service collection box.

1) Does the juror have his arms crossed when giving his answer?

2) Are his fists clenched so tightly that you can see the whites of his knuckles?

3) Is he fidgeting in his movements swinging back and forth constantly?

4) Does he close his eyes or cover his eyes before answering a question?

5) Does he look away when answering a question?

6) Does he overly stress answers to his question? EX: Positively, Absolutely, 100% No!

1) Those commenced by a fiancé or the fiancé’s family prior to the marriage [Please also see our Background Checks] or those commenced because of a possible extra marital affair during the marriage;

2) Often times, the verbiage in a prenuptial agreement is heavily weighted to protect one parties wealth and assets; however, because of this weighted leverage, a new trend has arisen to protect the other party… and that is dialog within the agreement that gives atonement for an adulterous affair. You can imagine, if you are dealing with millions of dollars in assets and income, this type of documentation of an adulterous activity could become vital in protecting and maintaining a certain lifestyle.
