Could Factors Involving Electronic Evidence from a Digital Device Exonerate Your Client?
If so, partner with ITAcceleration Digital Forensics to help mount your best defense.
Technology and Digital Forensic Experts
ITAcceleration is a full-scale, state-of-the-art technology provider specializing in digital forensics and expert witness testimony. We have the experience and technology expertise to evaluate evidence, refute government reports, as well as find new evidence not previously disclosed and determine what really happened.
We Get to the Bottom of ‘How’
In past cases, we’ve seen evidence presented without an understanding of ‘How’. ‘How’ did the evidence get on the device, manipulated, deleted or modified? The government will move forward with cases merely at the presence of evidence. But once the ‘How’ is understood, the government’s findings can be called into question.

Case and Report Review
David Yarnall will review the criminal complaint and any investigative reports to determine how ITAcceleration can assist. In most cases, legal or technical red flags are immediately identified during this review.
Case Scoping
Working with the defense team, David will scope out the forensic work that makes the best sense. (View the full life-cycle of electronic discovery to learn more.) Getting involved sooner rather than later allows for a more thorough analysis, especially when dependent on the government for access to seized evidence. Our involvement has included consulting oversight of government reporting to testifying on
Evidence Preservation and Chain of Custody
Evidence preservation and chain of custody are the foundation for the technical aspects of the case. Without proper preservation data, spoliation can be introduced. Without
ITAcceleration’s workflow includes expertly preserving data, documenting all processes, duplicating evidence and establishing
Computer Forensics
Our experts stay up-to-date with hardware, operating systems, encryption, software applications and investigative techniques to fully review content and hard drive activity. Data recovery is part of this process and may lead to exculpatory evidence that the government neglects to review. Challenging the government about gaps in their investigation is fairly common when responding to their investigative reports.
Mobile Forensics
Android and iPhone devices are very different when they interact with apps and services. Device and app vendors make changes routinely, and compatibility issues between the two may exist when attempting to reconstruct activity with content. The government may not fully analyze the mobile device that could result in exculpatory evidence.
ITAcceleration has processed hundreds of mobile devices and mobile backups, including app storage data. We continually utilize the best tools on the market, Cellebrite and Oxygen Forensics, to facilitate the recovery of data that uncovers relevant evidence.

Data Recovery
From hard drives and thumb
Hard drives and phones provide a treasure trove of evidence, but it’s unknown if the government will pursue it and if it will support your client. Given that recovering deleted data can be tricky, this is all the more reason for governmental processes to be analyzed to ensure evidence was gathered properly.
Digital Forensics and Information Technology Expert Testimony
Our director of Forensic Computing, David Yarnall, has been a qualified expert witness for multiple civil and criminal cases, in local, state and federal courts. He knows how to communicate complex technical subject matters in a clear way that non-technical people can easily understand. David adeptly relays findings that have been uncovered and conveys the complete picture – counterbalancing the government’s side of the story, which is often based on a limited, biased investigation.
Don’t Allow the Government to Steamroll Your Client
The evidence may seem daunting or confusing without a proper explanation. But technology is riddled with variables. The government’s case needs to be reviewed objectively to determine negligence, undisclosed activity and evidence, potential tampering and misleading statements. There may be alternatives than merely allowing the government to present evidence, subjecting your client to a plea deal or worse.
Digital Evidence Makes a Difference in Defending Your Client
Whatever the accusations – text messages, emails, photos, videos or other digital evidence may have been involved. Identifying gaps in the process by the government, and then finding new, compelling digital evidence to form a reasonable doubt can change the outcome of your next case.
