Clarity Autopsy Services LLC is an independent forensic pathology practice dedicated to providing clear, objective answers when the circumstances surrounding a death raise difficult questions. We serve families, attorneys, insurers, and agencies with evidence-based post-mortem examinations, autopsy review, medical record analysis, cause-of-death consultation, and expert forensic insight.
At Clarity, our work is grounded in scientific rigor, professional independence, and compassion. We understand that every case carries emotional, legal, and medical significance, which is why we approach each review with the care, discretion, and attention it deserves. Our goal is to help clients understand complex findings in a way that is honest, understandable, and useful.
Founded to provide an alternative to the limitations of government-based systems, Clarity Autopsy Services works directly for the people who need answers most. Unlike a public medical examiner or coroner office, our role is not tied to a jurisdiction. That independence allows us to provide focused, unbiased forensic pathology services tailored to the needs of each case.
Our services include private autopsies, second autopsies, second opinions on prior autopsy findings, independent cause-of-death review, medical record review, consultations for families and attorneys, and expert witness services in civil and criminal matters. Whether a family is seeking peace of mind or an attorney is preparing a case, we provide careful analysis supported by medical evidence and forensic expertise.
Clarity Autopsy Services is led by Dr. Amelia Nakanishi, MD, a board-certified Anatomic and Forensic Pathologist with fellowship training in forensic pathology and certification by the American Board of Pathology in both Anatomic Pathology and Forensic Pathology. Her approach combines meticulous scientific review with respect for the families and professionals who rely on her findings.
We believe every family deserves the opportunity to ask questions and receive truthful answers, and every case deserves thoughtful, independent review. From the first consultation to the final written report, Clarity is committed to providing forensic pathology services with professionalism, transparency, and compassion.
