INFORMATION: EXPERT WITNESS
|
Digital evidence, whether acquired from a computer system, PDA or mobile phone, can often be the deciding factor in criminal cases, civil and matrimonial disputes and employment proceedings.
For a forensic investigation to be lawful and effective, it must take into account Civil Procedure Rules, current legislation and peer recognised technical procedures. Working to these standards will ensure that the data gathered and presented is admissible as evidence in all forms of proceedings.
|
The gathering, analysis and presentation of this evidence by an appropriately qualified expert are required by law and are an essential aspect of the provision of the DigiFor service. In addition to collecting and analysing evidence for companies investigating suspected wrongdoing in-house or individuals bringing a claim or defending themselves against their employer or in matrimonial cases, we also provide expert witness testimony in court.
All our procedures for the collection and handling of data are in line with current ACPO guidelines and with the appropriate civil procedure rules that we keep under constant review. DigiFor consultants are members of the UK Register of Expert Witnesses and the Society of Expert Witnesses.
