Digital evidence for protection orders and family court.
We help domestic violence survivors, their solicitors and police preserve and present the digital truth — deleted messages, location history, stalkerware, account intrusion and image-based abuse — in a form Australian courts accept.
A note on safety. If you suspect your phone is being monitored, do not search this page or contact us from that device. Use a trusted friend's phone, a library computer, or clear your browser history afterward. We will never contact you unexpectedly or in a way that puts you at risk.
We recover SMS, iMessage, WhatsApp, Messenger, Signal, Snapchat and Instagram messages — including deleted threads — and present them as a court-ready exhibit with timestamps, sender attribution and hash verification.
Location history, geofence events, AirTag pairings, Find My logs, Google Timeline and vehicle infotainment data can show where a respondent has been — and where they should not have been.
We examine phones for commercial stalkerware (mSpy, Cocospy, FlexiSpy, Hoverwatch, Cerberus), hidden profiles, MDM payloads, jailbreaks and rogue accessibility services that secretly relay messages, audio or screen content.
Compromised iCloud, Google, Microsoft, social or banking accounts — sign-in history, device lists, recovery email/phone changes and session tokens preserved with a verifiable timeline.
Recovery of deleted images, screenshots and videos — including non-consensual intimate images and content shared without permission — with provenance suitable for police and court.
Forensic exhibits formatted for Family Court affidavits, ICL briefs and contravention applications — communications, contact patterns, location and device-use evidence.
Every detail below has been changed to protect client privacy. The forensic methods, exhibits and outcomes are representative of work performed under licence in Australian matters.
Applicant's former partner had factory-reset her phone before she could screenshot months of escalating threats. A physical extraction recovered 1,400+ deleted iMessages and 11 voice notes, decoded the SQLite journal and produced a chronological exhibit. Protection order granted on the papers.
Outcome — Order made — no cross-examination required.
Mother suspected the father was tracking the family vehicle. Examination of the iPhone revealed an unpaired AirTag generating Find My alerts for 47 days, plus Google Timeline data placing the father within 100m of school pick-up on six occasions outside his parenting time.
Outcome — Findings annexed to affidavit; supervised time ordered.
Client reported the respondent 'always knew' what she texted. Examination identified a hidden Cerberus install with device-admin privileges, accessibility-service abuse and a remote command-and-control endpoint. Full install timeline and exfiltration log produced.
Outcome — Evidence used in police complaint and DVO breach.
After moving out, the respondent retained access to the shared Apple ID and was reading messages and viewing photos. Sign-in logs, trusted-device list and Family Sharing history preserved; cloud acquisition produced under proper authority.
Outcome — Solicitor used exhibit to obtain interim restraint.
Stalkerware is a hidden app installed on a phone to relay messages, photos, location and even microphone audio to an abuser. It's more common than people realise — and almost always invisible to the person being monitored. We examine the device using forensic tooling, identify the software, document how it was installed, and prepare an exhibit suitable for police and court.
