Toxicology (medico-legal)

Second opinions matter!

These are dangerous reports from unaccredited laboratories being tendered in court.

Without a toxicological review, a court may interpret these results as positive—when in reality, both readings are below scientifically accepted cut-off levels.

⚠️ The issue? Faulty reports like these have led to countless unjust adverse findings in:
✔ FCFCoA (Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia)
✔ Children’s Court of NSW
✔ Mediations & Parenting Disputes

If your client has received a positive hair or urine test, get expert advice fast!

🔬 Our toxicology team will assess your case and explain your options.
✅ If the result is a true positive, legal options are limited.
✅ If the test was conducted by an unaccredited lab (often American, due to lower costs), you have grounds to challenge it.

📩 Contact us today for a toxicological interpretation. Reports (with or without affidavit) are usually available within 24 hours.

All briefings are free. Fees start at $150/hour (+ GST).​
