The exponential growth of digital communication channels, ranging from standard emails and mobile text messages to dynamic collaboration platforms like Slack and Microsoft Teams, means that modern legal matters almost always involve staggering volumes of Electronically Stored Information (ESI). When a legal matter arises, corporate legal departments and outside counsel are immediately thrust into a […]
Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way legal teams manage electronically stored information (ESI). Modern litigation often involves reviewing thousands or even millions of emails, documents, chat messages, spreadsheets, and other digital records. Reviewing this volume of information manually is time-consuming, expensive, and prone to human fatigue. Today, many law firms and corporate legal departments […]

For several decades, pulling forensically-sound data from cell phones, smartphones, and other personal devices was virtually impossible. Now, mobile forensic analysts can extract live data from these electronics and recover deleted passwords and files.
When evidence is collected for a digital forensics case, a chain of custody must be established. If any step in the chain of custody process is missed, there is a risk that electronic evidence presented to the courts could be considered inadmissible. To protect your case’s evidence, you will want to work with digital forensics […]
