You have probably heard about new federal rules pertaining to electronic discovery that have been forwarded to the United States Supreme Court for approval. Practitioners in firms of all sizes will be affected by changes and amendments to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 16, 26, 33, 34 37 and 45, and Form 35,[1] scheduled to take effect on December 1, 2006 (absent blocking legislation by Congress).  It is time to learn how you can use e-discovery in your practice, and how you can assure your compliance with e-discovery requirements. C.E. Cantwelll & Associates, Inc. are professional consultants with the technology and the know-how to make e-discovery work for your case and to protect you from errors in production to the other side. 

CE Cantwell & Associates, Inc. specializes in all types of electronic discovery and computer forensics

We consult and work for you in the areas of computer forensics, electronic discovery (“e-discovery”) and electronically stored information (“ESI”).  Our procedures are designed to make the evidence we gather and analyze admissible under the applicable rules.. We utilize MD5/SHA1 forensic workstations running only court and law enforcement recognized software (EnCASE FORENSIC and “dd” based tools running on Linux), so that you can be confident the data you are reviewing or producing for the other side is authentic and unaltered and verifiable for evidence purposes.

CE Cantwell & Associates, Inc. provides you with verifiable recovery of electronic evidence,  thorough processing of the evidence for your review,  chain of custody documentation,  interpretation of results, and  reporting of results in an understandable manner.

Here is a brief list of what is possible.

  • Recovery of deleted computer files

  • In many cases encrypted files can be decrypted
