From People We've Helped.
Names abbreviated for privacy. Each matter handled under strict confidentiality and chain of custody.
"After months of harassment, I finally had the evidence I needed for my Family Court case. They recovered deleted messages that proved everything."
"When I suspected an employee of stealing client data, they found the proof. Their forensic report was accepted in court without question."
"I've referred multiple clients for phone forensics. The reports are impeccable, court-ready, and they're always available for expert testimony."
"I thought my ex had hacked my phone but couldn't prove it. They found the spyware, documented everything, and helped me secure my devices."
"During my custody battle, I needed to prove my ex was sending threatening messages. Even though he'd deleted them, the team recovered everything."
Evidence That Holds —
From Intake To Cross-Examination.
An unbroken, documented trail is what separates an interesting finding from admissible evidence. Every matter we accept follows the same court-tested protocol, without exception.
Secure receipt
Devices are received, photographed, sealed in tamper-evident bags and logged with a unique case identifier on arrival.
Hash signatures
Every extraction is cryptographically hashed (MD5 / SHA-256) so any change to the evidence is instantly detectable.
Write-blocked copy
Analysis is performed only on verified forensic copies. The original device is never modified at any stage.
Documented log
Every person who touches the evidence is recorded with date, time, purpose and signature — a continuous audit trail.
Controlled facility
Evidence is held in an access-controlled, CCTV-monitored facility with restricted entry and tamper-evident seals.
Court-ready report
Final reports include the complete chain of custody log, hash values and methodology — built to withstand cross-examination.
Accepted in Family Court, Federal Court and criminal proceedings across Australia and New Zealand.
