Private report on smartphones

A suspicion, a chat history that has been submitted, or a contradictory time stamp cannot be reliably assessed simply by looking at the display. A private smartphone forensic report establishes a technical basis of facts before any further legal or financial steps are taken. It can support or refute claims, or demonstrate that it is not possible to reach a definitive conclusion based on the available data.

Private expert reports are not only commissioned by private individuals. Companies and solicitors also use them to prepare for legal proceedings, to resolve matters out of court, or to examine digital evidence that has already been submitted.

OUR APPROACH

This is how your examination will be carried out

A transparent process – from the initial enquiry to the handover of the report.

1
To begin with, we work with the client or their solicitor to clarify exactly which specific question needs to be answered. As part of this process, we also assess whether the available equipment and documentation are, in principle, suitable for reaching the desired conclusion. This enables us to limit unnecessary investigations and avoidable costs at an early stage.
2
Once the device has been accepted and documented, a data backup suitable for forensic purposes is carried out, where technically feasible. The analysis focuses on the data areas relevant to the assignment. Automatically generated tool results are not accepted without verification, but are validated against the original artefacts, databases, metadata and other evidence.
3
LanCologne has a proven track record of producing numerous private expert reports on behalf of private individuals, companies and solicitors. Such reports have already been used in various court proceedings. Furthermore, LanCologne has also prepared IT forensic reports directly in response to court orders or on the direct instruction of the court. As a result, we are familiar with both the requirements of private clients and the expectations regarding a clear, neutral and verifiable presentation in a legal context.
4
Upon request, suitable extracts from previously prepared expert reports may be provided as references, following full anonymisation and redaction. In doing so, all personal data, reference numbers, device identifiers, communication content and procedural details that could allow conclusions to be drawn about those involved or specific proceedings will be removed.

LIMITATIONS & CONCLUSION

What you should know

A private smartphone forensic report provides an independent, methodologically transparent assessment of digital traces. It clarifies which claims can be technically substantiated, which are merely possible, and which cannot be substantiated on the basis of the available data.
