Thanks again to all who attended the CEIC 2008 session on creating user-friendly forensic reports. We hope you find the following resources useful. Do remember that while you are free to use these resources in your own reports, at the end of the day you will be the one defending your report. Do your own research and be sure you can defend everything in your report, whether it comes from this material or not.


Happy reporting!

Jerry Hatchett
