Employment disputes
Employee departures, information movement and disputed communications.
WHO WE SERVE
The technical evidence. In the context of your matter.
Digital forensics that helps counsel ask focused questions, preserve relevant sources and understand supportable findings.
YOUR PRIORITIES
Make the work relevant.
Start with the questions, dependencies and decisions specific to your situation.
Commercial litigation
Document history, account records and chronology relevant to a business dispute.
Construction matters
Project files, communications, versions and the sequence of decisions.
Family law matters
Authorized communications, relevant records and asset-related chronology.
Criminal law matters
Device evidence, communications, timelines and independent technical review.
Estate litigation
Document provenance, communications and chronology with authority confirmed.
01
Start with the issues, not the tool.
Explain the propositions you need to test and the practical constraints of the matter. DFI can help identify relevant evidence sources and frame a scope that is useful to counsel.
02
Keep interpretation and independence clear.
Findings should explain the methods, records and limitations. An expert opinion must follow the evidence, including when the results do not support the initial concern.
