Digital evidence from servers, email, and records converging on a document under forensic review

Hiltz & Associates · Digital Forensics & Investigations

E-discovery consulting for litigation attorneys

Electronically stored information decides most disputes long before trial. Practice-management and accounting systems, email, text messages, cloud accounts, and workstations all hold evidence, and how it is identified, preserved, and collected determines whether it ever gets admitted. We guide counsel through that process and stand behind it under oath when it is challenged.

• EDRM-aligned e-discovery process guidance

• Legal hold & preservation counsel

• Forensically sound, defensible collection

• Processing, de-duplication & native-format production

• Chain-of-custody documentation

• Expert witness testimony on ESI authenticity & spoliation

Our process
