Sir

A Private Handwriting Experts Report is reliable and acceptable piece of evidence in Court Law. However, before such Handwriting Experts Report can be admitted in evidence, it has to be proved that such person is qualified as an Expert in the subject, and that the process of handwriting analysis adopted by him is a recognized standard globally for hand writing analysis.

Once the qualification and method of analysis is proved, then his evidence and opinion becomes admissible in the Court of Law. However, the report of handwriting expert is only one of the evidences, and it is not conclusive and whole some evidence in the Court to prove fraud or not.

Whether in a given case, whether fraud document is made or not, depends upon facts and circumstances of each case.
