What Can Cell Phone Forensics Find?
It is vital to understand that investigators can access the data on your cell phone. Everything someone does on a mobile device is subject to discovery.
Digital Forensics
Almost everyone carries a phone, and what is on it can matter in almost any case — fraud, infidelity, motor vehicle accidents and criminal investigations among them. Barefoot Professional Investigations focuses on mobile forensics, recovering and preserving evidence from phones for use in discovery, depositions, and litigation. Jan Barefoot is the firm’s examiner, certified through IACIS as a Certified Mobile Device Examiner (ICMDE). The field changes daily, so ongoing research and training are crucial.

Cell Phone Forensics
What can phone forensics find? Text messages, call logs, location history, app data, and deleted content, often more than people expect.

Jan Barefoot is qualified to testify as an expert witness on cell phone and mobile forensics findings in both civil and criminal trials.
