Case Studies
Case Studies
Real matters. Real outcomes.
Every matter is unique, yet our approach remains disciplined and consistent. All case details are anonymised to protect confidentiality while demonstrating legally defensible outcomes grounded in evidence integrity.
Method assurance
Evidence is preserved with verified chain-of-custody, analysis is fully documented, and findings are prepared for scrutiny in court or tribunal settings.
Criminal Defence
Unvalidated mobile GPS evidence
Police relied on digital evidence and a report disclosed to the defence that purported to place the accused at key locations using GPS data extracted from a mobile phone. Our independent review found the location data had not been properly validated and that the methodology used to interpret it was unreliable for the conclusions being advanced. We provided an expert report addressing the limitations of the data and the absence of validation, which was served in disclosure.
The disclosure addressed evidentiary reliability concerns and supported a resolution. Serious drug charges withdrawn by the prosecution.
Corporate Investigation
Departing employee data theft
A mid-size firm suspected a senior employee copied proprietary client data and pricing models before resigning to join a competitor. We forensically imaged the workstation and mobile device, recovering deleted files and USB transfer logs confirming systematic data exfiltration over a three-week period.
Report and expert testimony supported a successful Court injunction. Data returned, costs awarded.
Family Law
Hidden assets and deleted communications
Instructed by a family law solicitor to examine devices where financial non-disclosure was suspected. We recovered deleted messaging app conversations and cloud-synced financial documents revealing undisclosed cryptocurrency holdings and offshore accounts.
Evidence was presented in affidavit form and withstood challenge at trial. Court ordered complete financial disclosure.
Insurance Fraud
Staged incident and fabricated evidence
An insurer engaged Foren6ix to investigate a high-value property claim where digital evidence appeared inconsistent. Analysis of CCTV metadata, phone location data, and email timestamps established a clear timeline contradicting the submitted claim.
The investigative report reduced exposure and supported referral to police. Claim denied; matter escalated.
Confidentiality maintained across all engagements, with defensible reporting tailored to the matter at hand.
