Digital Forensics Lewiston, Maine | Workplace, Family, and Defense Matters

In Lewiston and Auburn, a lot of disputes are close to home: a former employee, a former partner, a neighbor. The proof is usually on a phone or a work computer.

Talk Through the Matter

Androscoggin County

Evidence for local disputes is usually personal and recent.

The twin cities have a mix of manufacturing, healthcare, education, and small retail, and the legal disputes reflect it. Employers want to know what a departing worker took. Families want to know whether a message was sent and by whom. Defense attorneys want to know what a phone report really says.

Rune Forensics does not treat any of these as routine. Each starts with the specific devices and accounts, and ends with a written account of what they show and what they do not.

Small and mid-sized employers, family law and defense attorneys, civil litigators, and individuals who need to understand a record that is being used against them.

FAQ

Straightforward answers to common questions.

How soon should I call after something goes missing from an account?

As soon as you notice. Logs and device state change with use, and early preservation protects options.

Can you tell if a message was edited?

Sometimes. Depending on the app, the device, and available backups, edits and deletions may leave traces that can be examined.

Will my employer see what you find?

Only what counsel decides to share. Engagements run through the retaining attorney or party, and confidentiality terms are set at the outset.

Do you take cases that only involve one phone?

Yes. Narrow engagements are common and often the most efficient.

Questions first

A short call can establish whether forensic work will help.

Describe the situation, and the practice will say what is realistic, what to preserve, and what a first review would cover.
