Historically, access to forensic services has been limited to government
sponsored laboratories and specialists, leaving access to these services out of the reach of all but law enforcement
agencies. Not until recent years have these services been made available to legal defense teams and the private
citizen attempting to ensure that just and equitable trial procedures are fairly met.
As crime scene analysts and other forensic specialists became available, defense counsel and citizens privately
pursuing legal actions quickly recognized the benefits of having physical evidence reviewed and processed by an
independent and qualified expert. It was not long before the demand for skilled forensic specialists outpaced the
availability.
In 1996, Lisa Allyn DiMeo founded Arcana Forensic Services to provide for this communal need. Since that time,
Arcana Forensics has provided professional, skilled and qualified forensic support to cases throughout San Diego
County and the United States. Ms.DiMeo has over twenty years of crime scene investigation experience and has been
