The computer forensic process is the collection, preservation, analysis, and court presentation of electronic evidence. The proper collection and analysis of computer evidence is critical in all criminal investigations and civil litigations. As each forensic examination is unique, a time projection to complete the analysis is difficult to establish. The particular amount of time it takes to conduct the forensic examination will vary from case to case.

Therefore, the cost incurred by the Client will be based on a Per-Hour Fee of $250.00 US for computer forensic processes, court-related matters and other administrative requests.

There are situations where a Fixed-Fee contract is appropriate. Please contact us to discuss what arrangements best meet your needs.
