Recover deleted texts
for court.
Deleting a message rarely removes it immediately. Depending on the device, the app and how long ago it was deleted, we can often recover the text, the timestamp and the surrounding thread — and preserve it in a form your lawyer can actually tender.
In scope.
- Deleted SMS and MMS
- Deleted iMessage threads (with sufficient device or iCloud access)
- Deleted WhatsApp messages from local databases and backups
- Deleted Messenger, Telegram and Signal artefacts where present
- Timestamps and participants — critical for court use
Honest limits.
- Recovery of messages overwritten by heavy use of the device
- Recovery from a phone that has been factory reset
- Recovery from end-to-end encrypted apps without device or backup access
A defined process, end to end.
- Step 01
Stop using the phone
Every new message reduces the chance of recovery. Bring it to us quickly.
- Step 02
Forensic acquisition
Full file-system or physical extraction where the device supports it.
- Step 03
Carving & decode
Database carving, deleted-record recovery and app-specific decoding.
- Step 04
Exhibit-ready report
Threads exported with hashes, timestamps and chain of custody.
