Get Help
If you’re here, you may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or unsure what to do next. Many families come to us during moments of shock, grief, or confusion, often without clear answers or guidance.
At FPS, our role is to help you slow things down, understand your options, and move forward with clarity and support.
We provide independent forensic expertise paired with compassionate, guided support. That means we don’t just perform forensic work, we help you understand what’s possible, what isn’t, and what steps may help bring clarity.
When families reach out to FPS, we promise:
- You will be heard.
- You will be guided.
- You will receive independent, evidence-based truth.
Our forensic pathologists are always selected to ensure full independence, with no prior affiliation to the hospital, office, or institution involved.
Independence is not optional in our work. It’s essential.
Learn more about the types of support FPS provides, including independent autopsies, second opinions, and medical record review.
If you’re ready to speak with someone, you can submit a request and an FPS team member will reach out within 24 hours to talk through your situation.
If you’re not sure where to start, our FAQ section answers common questions families have about independent autopsies, timelines, and what to expect.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. Many families contact us with only a few questions, and that’s okay.
We’ll help you understand what comes next.
