An Important But Unfortunate Part Of Our Business

One component of our business is often overlooked; but it's an important part of what we do. It's also unfortunate that this part of the business is necessary -- but when it's needed it is a valuable and important part of our range of services.

That service happens to be our "computer forensic" service -- a service initially deployed at the request of one of our attorney clients. What was initially intended to be little more than a quick check of a computer to see if there was any obviously incriminating information has grown into a full-fledged service offering.

The intent of this service is simple...

  • We review the contents of a computer that may contain incriminating information, pornography, illicit or illegal information, inappropriate e-mails, pictures or instant messages.
  • We provide this service in a manner that will ensure that information found during the analysis will be allowable in court or significant in mediation
  • We provide our client(s) with information we find during our analysis of the computer
  • We appear as an expert witness if needed for our client

This service is currently available ONLY to attorneys and ONLY when domestic disputes or divorces are being litigated. We do not plan to extend this service to the "general population" because of legal, technical and ethical issues.
