The Forensic Power Move

DNA is often referred to as the “gold standard” of forensic science due to its exceptional reliability in criminal investigations. DNA testing plays a crucial role in identifying suspects and offenders, linking them to crimes, exonerating innocent individuals, and in cases with unknown human remains. But what happens when traditional testing methods and the CODIS database come up empty?

The shared nature of human DNA means anyone can be traced, whether they are individually listed in a genetic database or not. Our advanced forensic DNA testing supports forensic investigative genetic genealogy (FIGG) using whole genome sequencing and SNP profiles. This is testing tech that public crime labs can’t do. SNP profiles are the only type that can be used to search consumer-based genetic genealogy databases. Unlike traditional DNA (STR) matching methods using CODIS, FIGG enables investigators to identify unknown suspects or victims by tracing distant relatives and constructing family trees to pinpoint identities — even in decades-old cold cases. This new testing technology is capable of providing defensible, science-based leads where none previously existed–lead opportunities that CODIS doesn’t provide.

At [Your Brand Name], we have partnered with Resolve Forensics on an industry-first subscription pricing model that has been designed to deliver more affordable access to this “game-changing” DNA+FIGG industry innovation. In addition, our dedicated support managers, scalable testing technologies, and tiered pricing model were created to deliver an easy, all-in-one casework solution that simplifies budgeting, offers an integrated backlog reduction strategy, and efficiently closes more cases with accuracy and predictability in days and weeks–not months.

Let’s start changing outcomes today!

Subscription Tiers for
FIGG+DNA Testing Casework

FIGG has Gone From Experimental to Essential

For victims and their families, cold cases utilizing FIGG are uncovering new investigative leads where none existed and delivering accountability and justice that no one thought would ever come. Our FIGG testing program is reshaping criminal investigations and expanding identification capabilities, offering law enforcement, medical examiners, and attorneys a powerful tool to close cases that once seemed unsolvable.

[As an example only, this sample landing page uses $2,000/case for IGG work. So for the 1st Beason level $2,000 + $3,600 for DNA testing = $5,600 cost per case. Your page will reflect your pricing.]

  • Dedicated Account and Training Manager
  • Secure online JusticeTrax Portal access
  • No Rush Fee
  • Standard testing turnaround times are 30 days or less
  • A’ La Carte Pricing for all Cases that Exceed the Selected Tier Amount [pricing schedule]
  • Direct processing of Backlog Reduction cases based on tier level (extracts only; sequencing and bioinformatics only) [pricing schedule]

For subscription cases where multiple samples from the same case fail at quantification or Phase 1 QC, Resolve Forensics will count up to three (3) such attempts as one (1) billable case. This supports flexibility for difficult or degraded evidence.

At the end of the 12-month service period, should any “Included Cases” go unused for the selected tier, you will have the option to roll them over if a new contract is signed before the previous contract expires. Any additional cases submitted over the included number in the selected subscription tier are billed at a-la-carte rates.

As [Your IGG Name] and Resolve Forensics grow and invest in additional automation and equipment, we anticipate increasing the number of DNA testing cases included per subscription tier at no additional cost. While not guaranteed, this reflects our commitment to efficiency and client value. If desired, additional FIGG records research work for these cases would be billed at $2,000 per case.

Client shall select one (1) of the six (6) annual subscription tiers. The selected tier provides a fixed number of forensic sample submissions per year. Additional cases beyond the tiered allocation will be billed at standard a-la-carte rates. The selected teir shall remain in effect for a period of twelve (12) months from the effective start date. During the term, Resolve Forensics shall provide forensic DNA testing services and [Your IGG Name] the Investigative Genetic Genealogy research, as outlined in the selected subscription tier.

All case data, DNA profiles, and related information shall be handled in strict compliance with applicable forensic standards, privacy regulations, and industry best practices. Resolve Forensics agrees to maintain the confidentiality and security of all information, employing encrypted systems, access controls, and audit trails to protect sensitive data.

Add-On: Backlog Reduction DNA Testing + FIGG Schedule

You may optionally include a Backlog Reduction Add-On for previously extracted DNA samples. These cases bypass extraction and Phase 1 QC and are processed directly through Resolve Forensics’ standard sequencing and bioinformatics workflow. Although no official definition exists for the DNA backlog, the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) defines a backlogged case as one that remains untested for 30 days after it has been submitted to a laboratory.

Add-On Backlog Reduction Cases will include the upload of data to GEDmatch, FamilyTreeDNA, and/or a third-party database for genealogical investigation and analysis by [Your Brand Name] IGG professionals.
