Modern Tools for the Modern Investigation

Litigation Support

Law firms need a licensed, experienced, investigator that can take a case from initial fact finding all the way through appearing as an expert witness. At McCann we understand that the trail can go from digital information like emails or  text messages to background research and traditional surveillance.  Many traditional private investigative firms do not understand computer forensics, mobile forensics or network forensics, they understand only traditional private investigative work such as surveillance and background work. 

On the other hand, traditional computer forensics firms often do not understand traditional private investigative skills. At McCann we understand the traditional “camps” between digital and analog services are artificial and are simply based on a lack of experience or the skills to adapt to a changing world.

Expert Research and Reporting

What is the relevant backgrounds of the parties involved in your case, from your client to your opponent.  Do you have all the relevant facts? Do you know if either of the parties have been involved in other similar civil history or do they have a criminal record?  It is possible that they have or had companies with extensive civil trail histories? McCann Investigators specialize in understand complex business issues such as partnership disputes, non-compete enforcement cases, intellectual property theft cases, privacy exposure/data breach incidents, family law cases such as divorce or child custody disputes, and other complex civil and criminal matters.

Once the basic information is developed, McCann Investigators can develop the file so that supporting evidence can validate the background information.

E Discovery Systems and “Simple” Review Platforms

Regardless of you require your acquired data formatted to a specialized e-discovery platform or you require a simple localized indexed drive with a standard search tool, McCann computer forensic examiners can prepare the data for review. Often times our clients find the complex e-discovery platforms are not needed since only one or at most a few lawyers will be reviewing the data.  In this case, a McCann external drive, created form the original obtained image, can provide a simple, easy to use low cost “e discovery light” tool. 

Email and Document Filtering and Searching

Often times, attorneys simple do not have the time to review emails and documents for key words or phrases. McCann computer forensic examiner can help you with this process and produce documents in an easy to review fashion.  Whatever format our attorney client wants to review, printed PDF’s, digital PDF’s or other formats for easy review.
