From raw material to the issues that matter
Electronic evidence can be voluminous, repetitive and superficially persuasive. The task is to identify what the underlying material establishes, what depends on inference and what remains unproved.
Mobile devices & messaging
Experience with handset downloads, extraction reports, messaging, contacts, images, video and application data, including the relationship between selected prosecution material and the underlying extraction.
Telephone attribution & call data
Analysis of attribution evidence, call records, patterns of contact, chronology and the evidential basis for linking a device, number or account to an individual.
Cell-site & location evidence
Analysis of cell-site, location and co-location material, together with expert evidence, testing the limits of what location evidence can properly demonstrate.
CCTV & reconstruction
Use of CCTV, viewing logs, timelines and other electronic records to reconstruct events and compare competing accounts against objective material.
Large records, disclosure and expert material
Experience includes cases exceeding 20,000 pages, multi-defendant proceedings, extensive electronic disclosure, unused material, forensic evidence, expert reports, lengthy chronologies and competing evidential narratives.
Testing the proposition
Separating fact from inference and assumption; checking whether schedules and summaries are supported by source material; identifying contradictions, gaps and alternative explanations.
Disclosure & admissibility
Experience with disclosure issues, unused material, challenges concerning the use of telephone evidence, admissibility questions and the instruction and testing of expert evidence.
Digital evidence and legal AI
The same discipline used to test a prosecution proposition against thousands of pages of source evidence is directly relevant to evaluating AI-generated legal analysis.
Both require source checking, identification of unsupported assumptions, reconstruction of reasoning, management of long context and a clear distinction between what the material proves and what merely sounds plausible.
