In most cases, yes. When files are deleted, they are not immediately removed from the storage device – only the reference to them is deleted. Using specialist forensic software, we can often recover deleted files, photos, messages, and documents. Success depends on factors like how long ago the deletion occurred, whether the device has been used since, and whether secure deletion tools were used. We provide a free assessment to determine the likelihood of successful recovery.
No. We use forensically sound methods that create exact copies (forensic images) of your device without altering the original data. We work on these copies, leaving your original device and data completely untouched. This is essential for maintaining evidence integrity and supporting clear legal review. Your device is returned to you in exactly the same condition we received it.
Timeframes vary depending on the complexity of the case and the amount of data involved. Straightforward mobile phone extractions can often be completed quickly, while comprehensive computer forensics involving multiple devices and large volumes of data takes longer. We provide realistic timeframes during our initial enquiry and will always try to work to legal deadlines where possible.
In most cases, yes, provided it has been collected, preserved, and analysed according to proper forensic procedures. Our digital forensics work follows recognised forensic principles (such as the ACPO guidelines) and UK legal requirements, so evidence is gathered in a way that can be relied upon in court. We maintain detailed chain of custody documentation and can provide a witness statement explaining our findings. Final admissibility is always a matter for the court. Read our guide on getting evidence that stands up in court.
It depends on the type and strength of encryption. For devices with simple passwords, we have tools that can attempt password recovery. However, modern encryption (such as BitLocker, FileVault, or full-device encryption on newer smartphones) can be extremely difficult or impossible to bypass without the password. We can advise on the feasibility during our initial assessment. In some cases, legal orders can compel individuals to provide passwords.
Costs vary significantly based on the scope of work. Simple mobile phone data extraction starts from £500-£800. Comprehensive computer forensics including analysis and reporting typically ranges from £1,500-£5,000+. Complex cases involving multiple devices, large data volumes, or expert witness testimony may cost more. We provide transparent quotes before beginning work.
