St. Petersburg clients cross the bay for their examinations. Our office for the area is in Tampa — 2202 Northwest Shore Boulevard, Suite 200, in the Westshore business district — which lies 18.2 miles from St. Petersburg, about 32 minutes by road over Tampa Bay. There is no LieDetectorTest.com facility on the Pinellas side.
With roughly 257,000 residents, St. Petersburg is Florida's fifth-largest city, occupying the Pinellas peninsula between Tampa Bay and the Gulf and long nicknamed the Sunshine City. Its blend of retirees, young professionals and waterfront businesses supplies a steady, varied polygraph caseload: infidelity and relationship verification, family disagreements over money and care, employee theft inquiries, and individuals contesting accusations they know to be false.
The Westshore office was picked for exactly this geography — it sits at Tampa's western edge, the first business district you reach after crossing the bay, keeping the trip as short as the map allows. Inside, the examination follows strict protocol: a private, controlled suite; a professional examiner trained to APA standards; a pre-test interview where every question is agreed; then validated testing and analysis. Individual examinations are $850, couples testing is $1,400, and groups pay $650 per person. Your written report is issued the same day, so you recross the bay with the answer already on paper.

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 Tampa office is approximately ~32 min from St. Petersburg. 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 Tampa.
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.
