Hamilton County and the Southern District

Brand, formula, and customer data are the quiet center of many disputes.

Employers in the region maintain product research, marketing plans, and customer lists that matter a great deal and sit in ordinary cloud drives. A departing manager may sync a folder to a personal account in a minute, and the record of it may be a single log line.

Rune Forensics helps counsel recover those lines, read them with context, and avoid overclaiming. For criminal defense matters, Rune Forensics can provide independent review of phones, computers, and the reports built from them.

FAQ

Common questions about Ohio cases.

Will examining a former employee's laptop alert them?

Not if handled correctly. Collection is planned around the device's status, and accounts can often be preserved without notice.

Can a sync log prove someone took a file?

It can show that a file synced to an account, from which device, and when. Proving intent or later use usually needs more evidence.

Can you assist defense counsel in federal proceedings?

Yes, with independent review and testimony support.
