Digital evidence extraction for legal proceedings
Professional forensic data extraction with written reports. For solicitors, barristers, and private individuals.
Why it matters
Digital evidence can make or break a case
In legal proceedings, including family law, AVOs, criminal matters, civil litigation, and workplace investigations, digital evidence from phones and computers is often the most critical evidence available. Text messages, photos, call logs, and social media activity can make or break a case.
We have performed forensic data extractions for over 16 years. Solicitors, barristers, and private individuals across the Central Coast, Sydney, and wider NSW rely on us to extract, document, and present digital evidence accurately and professionally.
Scope
What we extract
Messages
iMessages, SMS, WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram, Signal. Full threads with timestamps, including deleted messages.
Photos & videos
All media including EXIF metadata (date, time, GPS location). Deleted photos recoverable in many cases.
Call logs
Incoming, outgoing, and missed calls with timestamps, durations, and contact details.
Social media
Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok. Posts, DMs, account data, and activity logs.
Location data
GPS history, Wi-Fi connection logs, location services records, and significant locations.
Browsing & email
Web history, search queries, cached pages, locally stored emails, and webmail cache.
Deleted data recovery: when files are deleted, they often remain in storage until overwritten. Our forensic tools access raw storage below the OS level, recovering messages, photos, and files thought to be permanently gone. The sooner the extraction, the better the recovery, but we regularly recover data deleted weeks or months earlier.

Process
Our process
Intake & documentation
We record device details (make, model, serial number, condition) and establish chain of custody. We discuss the specific data types relevant to your matter.
Forensic imaging
We create a bit-for-bit forensic image of the device. All analysis is performed on this copy. The original remains untouched and verifiable.
Analysis & recovery
We extract relevant data categories from the forensic image. For deleted data, we perform deep analysis of unallocated storage space.
Written report
A detailed report documenting device information, methodology, tools used, and all evidence recovered. Formatted for solicitors, barristers, and the court. Tailored to specific date ranges, contacts, or data types as directed.
Trust
Confidentiality & integrity
Every case is treated with strict confidentiality. Device contents are never shared with anyone other than the instructing party. We do not alter, add, or remove any data from the source device, which is essential for evidence to withstand court scrutiny.
We maintain documented chain of custody from intake to return. We can receive devices directly from third parties or legal representatives if required.
Is digitally extracted evidence admissible in court?
Digital evidence is routinely admitted in Australian courts: family law, criminal, civil, and AVO proceedings. The key is how the evidence is collected and documented. We follow established forensic procedures and provide detailed written reports that explain the extraction methodology, which supports admissibility.
What devices can you extract evidence from?
We extract data from iPhones, Android phones, iPads, Android tablets, Windows computers, Mac computers, and external storage devices. This covers the vast majority of consumer devices involved in legal matters.
Need digital evidence extracted?
We work directly with individuals and with solicitors acting on their clients' behalf.
