The field of Digital Forensics, responsible for developing technology and techniques to identify, extract, classify, and preserve electronically stored information, has grown dramatically, and only a handful of firms are qualified to meet the court’s mandates.
Locating and Identifying ESI
According to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) electronically stored information is information created, manipulated, communicated, stored, and best utilized in digital form, requiring the use of computer hardware and software. ESI may be located on hard-drives of computers, servers, tablets, cell phones, and numerous other electronic devices. Identifying where data may be located requires the expertise of trained forensic investigators who are skilled in using advanced techniques to identify pertinent data.
Not all electronically stored information is evidence, and differentiating between what is and is not is something best done by experts. The training necessary to become certified as an electronic data evidence technician is extensive, and the personnel at Legal Evidence Corporation are cross trained and certified in the evidentiary attributes of electronic data as well.

Preserving ESI
The courts have determined that there is a duty to preserve ESI once a litigation has commenced, and that responsibility pertains to any and all participants who have been notified as being within the scope of the case, as well as custodians of evidence. With some cases it may be appropriate and prudent to obtain a hold letter or a motion to order that ESI not be tampered with or destroyed. We are qualified to provide expert advice regarding e-discovery and possibly petitioning the appropriate court for enforcement of evidence preservation orders.
Legal Evidence Corporation is eminently qualified to act as a trusted custodian of evidence during the time we are conducting investigations and examining the pertinent devices. From the moment a storage device is received by LEC, the integrity of the device and any data contained therein is handled according to established standards of care and due diligence.

Criminal Infractions
Hearsay becomes hard evidence when our trained forensic investigators retrieve vital ESI to prove your client’s side of the story.
Personal Injury
Electronically Stored Information is often able to corroborate or negate a victim’s testimony and move a case toward fast settlement.
Matrimonial Infractions
Probably the most common arena for ESI, forensic experts can often identify the day, time, and location of private communications even after they are "deleted".
Intellectual Property
Persons who engage in the theft of intellectual property invariably leave a trail of electronically stored information and evidence.
Malpractice Litigations
All types of professional malpractice, medical, accounting, and legal cases involve digital data that points to the truth and to possible cover-ups.

Each side has a story in these cases, and Legal Evidence Corporation can locate it and assist you in preparing it for evidentiary preparation and submission.

Settle Cases Faster By Identifying Crucial Evidence With ESI Forensics
It is estimated that 95% of civil court cases are settled out-of-court and that seems to benefit almost everyone. Prolonged litigation is often more expensive than the ultimate award, so settling avoids the possibility of an aberrant judgement being handed down to your disdain.
Today’s legal cases will invariably involve electronically stored information (ESI) and it is prudent to address this area at the commencement of any litigation.
