Lancaster is one of the oldest inland cities in the United States, a county seat of about 59,000 people at the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country. The surrounding county mixes a thriving red-brick urban core with some of the most productive farmland in the nation and a large Amish and Mennonite population — which means our clients here range from downtown professionals to family businesses spread across the townships. The southeastward route toward Wilmington leads out through that farm country and into northern Delaware.
Your Wilmington appointment takes place in a private, purpose-controlled suite — no waiting-room crowds, no interruptions. A professional examiner trained to APA standards walks you through the pre-test interview, agrees every question with you before the instruments are attached, and scores the charts immediately after the examination. You receive a same-day written report suitable for any personal, employment or legal purpose. An individual test is $750, couples testing is $1,400, and groups pay $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, Delaware office is approximately ~1 hr 18 min from Lancaster. 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.
