Home to the University of Delaware and roughly 34,000 residents, Newark is New Castle County's college town, sitting in the state's northwest corner where Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania meet. That geography shapes our caseload: alongside the usual relationship and family matters, we regularly test clients who live over the Maryland line in Elkton or across the Pennsylvania border, for whom Wilmington is simply the nearest professional polygraph facility in the region.
Every Newark client receives the same three-part service. You are tested in a controlled private room — no interruptions, no observers, conditions held constant because that is what accurate charts require. Your examiner is a professional trained to APA standards, and the pre-test interview ensures you know and understand every question before the instrument is attached. You leave with a same-day written report. The individual examination fee is $750, couples are tested for $1,400, and group testing starts at $700 per person.

Preparing for Your Visit
Travelling to your polygraph appointment? These tips will help you arrive prepared and get the most accurate results.
Plan Your Journey
Your appointment at our Wilmington office is approximately ~20 min from Newark. We recommend arriving 10–15 minutes early — rushing to your appointment can elevate your heart rate and affect your physiological baseline, which could impact accuracy. Plan for traffic and allow a small buffer.
The Night Before
Get a full night’s rest. Fatigue affects physiological responses and can interfere with the accuracy of your polygraph results. Avoid alcohol the evening before, and try to maintain your normal routine as much as possible.
What to Bring
Bring any relevant documents — case notes, a list of questions you want covered, or reference materials. If someone is accompanying you, they’re welcome to wait in reception while the examination takes place in a separate private room.
On the Day
- Avoid caffeine and stimulants — coffee, energy drinks, and nicotine elevate heart rate and can affect sensor readings
- Eat a light meal — don’t arrive on an empty stomach as sessions typically last 90 minutes to 2 hours
- Wear comfortable clothing — sensors are placed around the upper body, so avoid tight or restrictive layers
- Bring valid photo ID — your examiner will verify your identity before the examination begins

Why Our Results Are Trusted
The science behind our polygraph examinations at Wilmington.
Accuracy Rate
When administered by a qualified, APA-qualified examiner using validated protocols, polygraph testing achieves 90–95% accuracy in specific-issue testing, supported by decades of peer-reviewed research.
Question Repetition
Every relevant question is repeated a minimum of three times during your examination. This multi-pass approach eliminates anomalies and ensures the physiological data is consistent and reliable.
Channels Monitored
Our digital instruments simultaneously monitor heart rate, blood pressure, respiration (thoracic and abdominal), and electrodermal activity — providing a comprehensive physiological profile throughout the examination.
Validated Technology
The polygraph is the only scientifically validated technology for truth verification. We reject unvalidated alternatives including voice stress analysers, mobile apps, and eye-tracking tools.
Polygraph Testing & Legal Admissibility in Delaware
Polygraph results can be used as supporting evidence in many legal proceedings in Delaware.

Our Wilmington examiners provide detailed written reports suitable for legal use, and are available for expert testimony if required.
