Verify Audio Authenticity for Hearing

I have a phone-recorded conversation that is now evidence in an upcoming Zoom hearing, and I need an experienced audio forensics specialist to determine whether the file is genuine. My primary concern is authenticity—I suspect there may be cut or edited sections and possibly altered voices or other sounds. You will have access to the original phone-recording file (not an MP3/WAV export), along with the surrounding case notes for context.

Here’s what I need from you:
• A detailed forensic analysis explaining any edits, splices, or voice manipulations you uncover, supported by spectrograms or other clear visual markers.
• A concise written report in plain language that I can submit to the court, outlining your methodology, findings, and professional opinion.
• Your availability to appear live via Zoom during the hearing to explain those findings and answer any clarification questions from counsel or the judge.

The work should follow accepted forensic-audio protocols and be defensible under cross-examination. If you routinely use tools like iZotope RX, Adobe Audition, or forensic suites such as Cedar or Magix Sequoia, please mention that in your response.

Once we agree on scope and timeline, I will forward the recording and schedule preferences for the hearing date.
