CASES ANALYSED

Across two decades, two countries and every class of digital evidence.

CASE FILE — 2007 One case is worth naming. RE: LEONEL, R. · LEI 13.772/2018

In 2007 Castilho examined the matter of Rose Leonel, a Brazilian journalist whose private images were published without her consent. The examination traced the material back to its source and the case produced a conviction. Brazil later passed Lei 13.772/2018, the statute popularly named in her honour.

We solved the case the law is named after. We do not claim to have written the law.

EXHIBIT 02 · INTAKE

Four doors into this laboratory.

People arrive here for four different reasons, carrying two different fears. Attorneys and corporate officers are afraid their expert will be discredited and their evidence excluded. Individuals and families are afraid that something is happening to them and they do not know what is true. Both fears are answered by the same discipline. They are not answered by the same conversation — so pick your door.

EXHIBIT 03 · METHOD

How we work.

Every engagement runs the same spine — documented so a second examiner can repeat each step and reach the same result. Watch it run.

CHAIN OF CUSTODYREPEATABLE · 5 STEPS

SAME SPINE, EVERY MATTER —
SO A SECOND EXAMINER REACHES THE SAME RESULT.

LAB CONSOLE — RECONSTRUCTION 26.37°N 80.09°W
SEAL ——— APPLIED FARADAY · AIRPLANE MODE CLOCK STOPPED AT SEIZURE
STEP 01 / 05 Identify & preserve We identify the evidence and stop the clock on it — before anything else touches it.

When we examine a phone, the first thing we check is not the messages. It is whether the device state, the OS version and the backup history will let us reach the messages without altering them. That order is the difference between evidence and a story.

THE LIMIT

We work lawfully. We do not access accounts or devices without authority from the person who owns them or from a court.

That limit is not a marketing position. It is what keeps an examiner’s findings admissible and an examiner’s testimony intact.

EXHIBIT 06 · INTERROGATORIES

Asked in almost every intake.

NO. 1 How fast can you take a case?

Preservation starts the day you call — often the same hour for incident-response matters. The examination itself is scheduled once the evidence is secured, because the order matters: preserve first, analyse second.

NO. 2 Can you recover deleted messages and photos?

Often — but honestly: it depends on the device, the OS version, how long ago the deletion happened, and what has been done to the device since. That is why the first instruction in almost every case is the same: stop using the device and stop deleting things.

NO. 3 Will you testify — deposition and trial?

Yes. Forty depositions in the past four years, plus trial testimony. Every report is written expecting cross-examination: method stated alongside result, so the findings survive the witness stand.

NO. 4 Can you get into my spouse’s phone or accounts?

Not without lawful authority — consent of the owner or an order of a court. That is not a hedge; it is what keeps the evidence admissible and the examiner’s testimony intact. We will tell you what can be done lawfully in your situation.

NO. 5 What does an engagement cost?

Scoped at intake and put in writing before work begins. Preservation, examination and testimony are priced as separate phases, so you are never paying for trial preparation on a matter that settles at the evidence stage.

NO. 6 Do you work outside Florida?

Yes. Remote acquisition covers much of the country, testimony travels, and matters with a Brazilian or cross-border dimension are handled in-house — a capability very few US examiners offer.

FINAL NODE · CUSTODY TRANSFERS TO YOU

The evidence already exists. The question is who preserves it first.

One confidential call. We will tell you what is recoverable, what it will take, and — when the honest answer is that we cannot help — we will tell you that too.
