THE INVESTIGATIVE SCOPE
365 ALTERAM scopes independent physical examination review for serious and complex criminal matters. Examine supplied scene measurements, photographs, material examinations, engineering records and reconstruction inputs. Identify specialist needs in material behaviour, mechanical damage or event reconstruction and record the assumptions underlying any model. We define the question, available material and required specialist competence before proposing the work.
Check units, scale, boundary conditions, measurement uncertainty and sensitivity to changed assumptions. Compare plausible event scenarios rather than treating a visually convincing reconstruction as independent proof.
Examine supplied scene measurements, photographs, material examinations, engineering records and reconstruction inputs. Identify specialist needs in material behaviour, mechanical damage or event reconstruction and record the assumptions underlying any model.
Where a serious allegation depends on how an event physically unfolded, small assumptions can drive large conclusions. 365 ALTERAM can expose those dependencies and coordinate a technically grounded alternative assessment tied to the actual scene record.
Reconstruction depends on preserved measurements and suitable expertise. Simulation cannot recreate missing facts with certainty or independently establish a person’s intention.
When decades of liberty are at stake, every decisive forensic inference deserves independent scrutiny.
WHEN LIBERTY IS AT STAKE
Where a serious allegation depends on how an event physically unfolded, small assumptions can drive large conclusions. 365 ALTERAM can expose those dependencies and coordinate a technically grounded alternative assessment tied to the actual scene record.
For allegations carrying very long or life imprisonment, our role is to connect this discipline to the precise disputed act, identify what can be tested and provide counsel with a clear route back to the source. We preserve findings that support, weaken or leave the allegation unresolved.

The BALANCE-7 approachWe clarify the material issue, available records, authority and jurisdictions before proposing the work.
The agreed workstreams connect sources, test reasoning and identify what remains unresolved.
Counsel receives a scoped record of the analysis, supporting exhibits and material limitations.
BEFORE YOU INSTRUCT
No such claim is made. 365 ALTERAM scopes, coordinates and integrates independent forensic review. Medical examinations, laboratory testing and reserved expert opinions are assigned to appropriately qualified practitioners or laboratories under an agreed instruction. Availability, authority and any relevant accreditation scope are checked for the actual work.
The agreed report identifies the source for each material finding, separates facts from inference and records the specialist’s methods and limitations. Counsel can use it to formulate expert questions, seek further material or consider a properly supported challenge. Legal use and admissibility are assessed in the relevant jurisdiction.
Yes. Independence means reporting supportive, adverse and inconclusive findings consistently. We examine the record rather than promising a defence-favourable answer. Qualified counsel directs legal strategy and the court determines the use and weight of the evidence.
Start with a neutral summary, relevant jurisdictions, procedural dates and the disputed forensic question. Do not send sensitive records through an initial enquiry. Scope, fees, lawful access, confidentiality and evidence-transfer arrangements are agreed before substantive work.
No acquittal, sentence reduction, recovery or specific expert finding is guaranteed. Work is subject to lawful authority, specialist availability, competence and the material preserved. Original sources, handling history, analytical assumptions and limitations remain traceable.
