Digital Forensics Services

Cornerstone Discovery offers digital investigation services to collect and preserve critical evidence from mobile devices, laptops, servers, and cloud accounts. Our forensic investigators, certified digital forensic examiners, litigation consultants, legal project managers, and e-Discovery Specialists leave no stone unturned and extract and preserve the data you need to support your case.

Our digital forensic solutions include Preservation & Collection (of digital devices, servers, etc.), Analysis & Reporting, and Expert Witness Testimony & Rebuttal in court. We can assist in a variety of matters that involve digital devices and data, from extensive corporate investigations (i.e., stolen trade secrets), internal governmental investigations, and internal investigations for public entities like school districts, colleges, and universities to criminal investigations (i.e., cybercrimes) and more.

e-Discovery Services

Once we forensically collect and preserve the data, our e-Discovery specialists can process vast amounts of data by setting a protocol to define search parameters, as well as assist with refining and negotiating an ESI protocol, executing searches, automating privilege logs, managing review teams, and producing relevant data. We work with you on your individual case to assess your needs and offer the most cost-effective and complete solutions to ensure projects get done on time and within budget. We also offer an online collaborative document review platform, Junto, to enhance the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of your electronic discovery efforts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between e-Discovery and digital forensics?

Digital forensics is the scientific process of identifying, preserving, recovering, analyzing, and presenting data from digital devices. It is often used to find out what happened on a particular device. e-Discovery, on the other hand, is the broader legal process of identifying, collecting, and producing all relevant ESI for a lawsuit.

A forensic collection can be one part of the e-Discovery process, especially when there are concerns about data deletion or hiding, but e-Discovery also involves processing, hosting, reviewing, and producing large volumes of data that may not require deep forensic analysis.

What are the risks of a law firm handling complex e-Discovery in-house without expert support?

The risks are substantial and include: inadvertently altering or destroying evidence (spoliation), which can lead to severe court sanctions; missing critical evidence due to improper collection or search techniques; incurring massive, uncontrolled costs from inefficient review processes; and having key evidence deemed inadmissible due to a broken chain of custody or improper handling. Instead of dealing with these problems, partner with our criminal and civil litigation support firm and protect the outcome of your case.

What is EDRM (Electronic Discovery Reference Model)?

The EDRM outlines the standard process for e-Discovery. It consists of nine stages: Information Governance, Identification, Preservation, Collection, Processing, Review, Analysis, Production, and Presentation. Our experts follow this model to manage electronically stored information (ESI) in a defensible and organized manner.

How can litigation support services benefit a small law firm or solo practitioner?

Litigation support levels the playing field, giving smaller firms access to the same powerful technology and specialized expertise as large, international firms without the prohibitive cost of building and maintaining an in-house department. By outsourcing technical tasks, solo and small-firm attorneys can efficiently handle data-intensive cases, reduce overhead, and focus their resources on legal strategy and client service.
