Businesses are under a legal duty to preserve and produce electronic documents in litigation. We help business meet this challenge.

It is our philosophy that the facts in a dispute can often only be revealed by looking at the electronic evidence, particularly the email evidence. The examples of cases where email revealed the true facts are growing each day. Consider the following examples:

  • Email evidence revealed the shredding of documents at Arthur Andersen.
  • Email evidence exposed Merrill Lynch analysts condemning stocks as "disasters" or "dogs," while Merrill Lynch publicly promoted them to investors.
  • It was an e-mail that asked Credit Suisse First Boston staff to "clean up" files that led to obstruction of justice charges against Frank Quattrone, a former star investment banker.
  • E-mails were also noteworthy in the President Clinton/Monica Lewinsky scandal, and in the Iran/Contra scandal.

Examples of email as the evidence that revealed the true facts are too numerous and common to ignore the phenomena. Many attorneys do; we do not. We always consider using modern investigative techniques to obtain the electronic evidence, and we have the know-how, skill and experience to obtain the electronic evidence.

We believe that the only way to uncover the real facts in any dispute is to review the relevant electronic evidence by adopting a modern investigative approach. We draw upon our unique skills in electronic document investigations to attempt to uncover the facts. We are comfortable working hand-in-hand with our network of computer technicians or with our clients’ computer IT departments in these investigations.

We believe that our approach allows our clients to make more informed; and, therefore, better decisions.
