"Proper handling of everything from corporate fraud and employee theft investigations to domestic relations cases, now requires computer forensics."  

Computers are now involved in nearly all financial crimes, and are increasingly used to communicate between spouses and their paramours, and to book travel and lodging.

If your company doesn't have the expert assistance of a competent computer forensics examiner from the beginning of the investigation, you may overlook or lose important evidence. 

If you are a party to domestic relations matter, or an attorney handling such a matter, an exam of the home computer can yield crucial and irrefutable evidence of the adulterous activity of the wayward spouse. 

From our experience, time and again computer forensics evidence is all that is needed to complete the investigation and win the case.   

Evidence recovered from computers, cell phones, and palm pilots is often not available from any other source.   You cannot afford to leave these items out of your investigations.  

We are experts at extracting probative material from computers and electronic digital storage devices.

"Abrams Computer Forensics has delivered the computer evidence we have needed time and again.  Their work is always professional and precise. Their reports are well written and use non-technical language to explain the science behind their investigative methods. ... I trust them to come through for me on my most crucial electronic discovery assignments."

"Steve Abrams and his company have been our go-to resource for computer forensics, skip tracing, and background investigations.  They have never let us down.  Their knowledge of computer forensics is seemingly limitless, and they make even the most technical aspects of computer forensics investigations easy to understand in their reports, depositions, and court room testimony." 

"Steve Abrams is an excellent private investigator.  He is intelligent and quickly understands complex fact situations.  He works with his head, not just his feet. Steve stays focused on the legal objective; therefore, he is economical. His integrity is without question.  When we need a detective, we call Steve."
