About Alvarez Forensics

Bridging Advanced Genomic Science and Court-Ready Evidence

At Alvarez Forensics LLC, we provide specialized investigative forensic bioinformatics and genetic genealogy services tailored for law enforcement agencies, attorneys, probate litigation, and licensed private investigators.

Led by Roger Alvarez III, Lead Forensic Genealogist and Chief Bioinformatics Officer, our firm merges cutting-edge bioinformatic data processing with traditional forensic genealogical methodologies. We transform complex autosomal DNA triangulation and genomic signatures into clear, verifiable, and legally defensible evidence.
