Let's talk about your goals

Share a few details and our team will get back to you within 24 hours.

You have questions. We have answers.

Is it admissible?

That's for the court to decide, not us. What we can do is make sure nothing about how it was collected gives anyone a reason to challenge it — hashed at the point of capture, an unbroken record of who handled what. We always provide a written statement of the method, and someone who can explain it.

What if the evidence has already been deleted?

Often it's still there. Platforms keep more than people expect, and deleted usually means hidden rather than gone. But retention windows do close, and once they have, nobody can get it back — not us, not anyone. That's why the first call matters more than most people think.

Do I need to involve the other side's IT?

No. We collect from systems your client controls. If the evidence sits somewhere they don't control, that's a disclosure application rather than a collection, and we'll say so.

What can't you get?

Plenty. Some platforms don't publish a usable interface at all, some only expose a few weeks of history, and some hold the good material behind a licence tier the client doesn't have. We tell you what the limit is before you instruct us, and what we couldn't reach goes in the bundle in writing.

Are you replacing an eDiscovery provider?

No. We do collection, they do review at scale, and we work alongside them regularly. If a matter genuinely needs the full forensic treatment, we'll tell you rather than take it.
