Our Services

• Cell phone extractions and analysis
• Text messages (SMS/MMS), instant messages, emails 
• Social media communications and data recovery
• Contacts, call logs, and searched items
• Device location data and movement history
•  Downloaded, deleted, and cached files (including images, videos, and audio)
• Passwords and credentials

 Why it matters: Mobile devices are often at the center of today’s cases. MDF identifies what data was actually on a device, recovers deleted content when possible, and evaluates whether law enforcement properly collected and interpreted the evidence. 

•  Computer data acquisitions and examinations
• Cloud storage accounts (Google, iCloud, Verizon Cloud, Box, etc.) 
• Internet history, cookies, bookmarks, and searches
• Emails, documents, databases, and applications
• User accounts and operating system artifacts (startup items, USB connections, log files)
• Data recovery from damaged or corrupted devices
   

Why it matters: Computers and cloud accounts can contain critical information, or reveal when evidence was misunderstood or taken out of context. MDF’s examiners uncover details about user activity, access, and ownership that can strengthen a defense.

• Cellular carrier records (CDRs)
• Cell site location information (CSLI) and tower analysis
• Call detail and duration 
• Patterns of movement and communication
• WiFi connections and time zone data
   

Why it matters: Law enforcement often relies on carrier records or cell towers to place a person near a crime. MDF reviews these records to test accuracy, expose gaps (such as missing data sessions), and create a clear timeline of device activity.

• Independent case review and consultation 
• Identification of overlooked, disregarded, or misinterpreted evidence 
• Expert witness testimony in hearings and trials
• Assistance with trial preparation, exhibits, and cross-examination strategies
   

Why it matters: MDF goes beyond technical work, we help attorneys understand how digital evidence fits into the bigger investigative and legal picture. Our reports and testimony are written to clearly articulate complex forensic nuances in a way judges and juries can understand.

• Recovery of deleted files, texts, and media 
• Password and encryption analysis
• Specialized forensic artifacts (system logs, shellbags, LNK files, registry entries) 
• File system examinations and last backup verification
   

Why it matters: Deleted or hidden data often becomes case-critical. MDF uses industry-standard forensic tools and investigative expertise to recover this data when possible and explain its significance clearly in court.

Every piece of data tells a story, but only when it is properly collected, analyzed, and explained. At MDF, our examiners combine investigative insight from law enforcement with the ability to articulate digital forensic findings in clear, persuasive terms for attorneys, judges, and juries.
