Domestic Dispute Resolution
In a sensitive custody dispute marked by claims of deception and concealed communication, our digital forensics team uncovered critical metadata from emails and mobile devices. This allowed us to reconstruct a clear timeline that substantiated our client’s legal position.
Case Details
A client came to EquiLaws amid a highly emotional custody dispute, lacking the evidence needed to support serious concerns. Our investigators conducted a forensically sound examination of digital devices, retrieving deleted messages, analyzing location data, and uncovering hidden communication patterns. The investigation revealed suspicious movements and contact with previously undisclosed individuals, directly contradicting sworn statements made in court. The evidence was compiled and submitted to the client’s legal team, strengthening their position in the ongoing custody case.
EquiLaws ensured that all evidence was handled under strict chain-of-custody protocols and prepared in a legally admissible format for court proceedings.
Situation Overview
The opposing party had deliberately erased messages and disabled location tracking, making the case particularly complex. Our primary challenge was legally reconstructing two months’ worth of digital activity across multiple devices without compromising evidentiary standards.
