Counsel

For law firms

The law firm introduces the business seeking litigation-approved email and file forensics. VE Forensics consults with counsel — not by cold-calling the client alone — obtains authorized access with you, runs examinations in tandem on litigation-approved forensic platforms, and produces packages you can stand behind. Powered by Vital Edge IT Inc.

When counsel gets the call

Offboarding gaps and quiet transfers often show up first in mail, chat, and documents — not in a polished complaint. You introduce the business; we consult with you, secure admin access, and run the examination in tandem using the keywords you provide. Defensible packages for the file. Same house for prevention: Vital Edge IT Inc. can harden access, email and file security, and compliance so the next exit does not become discovery.

Built for the way firms actually try cases.

Partners need a short, defensible story: what was collected, how it was hashed, who searched it, and what left the room. Associates need search driven by the firm’s keywords — not a week of PST gymnastics. VE Forensics is staffed for both.

Litigation and eDiscovery

Mailbox and file productions that match the request — not a raw dump. Hits, families, and load files assembled so the case team can review instead of babysit exports.

Employment

Harassment, wage, and departure matters often turn on who sent what, and when. We isolate custodians and threads without boiling the ocean of the rest of the tenant.

IP and trade secrets

Outbound attachments, unusual forwarding, and personal-webmail exfiltration. Search is tuned to keywords counsel supplies — not generic fishing.

Fraud and internal investigations

Quiet collection with authorized access obtained through counsel, role-based access, and an examiner log that shows the path from allegation to exhibit.

Family, estate, and fiduciary

Personal accounts, mixed devices, and incomplete exports are common. We document gaps as carefully as we document hits — with the firm in the loop.

Government and law-enforcement support

Process that can be explained. Hashes, logs, and productions prepared for counsel who must describe the method on the record.

Engagement model

You introduce. You stay in control.

Law firm introduces the matter

The firm is the affiliate / referral path — it introduces the business seeking litigation-approved email and file forensics.

Consultation with counsel

VE Forensics handles project consultation directly with the law firm, not by cold-calling the business alone.

Authorized access with counsel

To reach business emails and in-scope personal chats, we work with counsel to obtain the necessary admin / authorized access.

Keywords from the firm

The law firm provides the keywords and search parameters needed to compile the litigation-approved reporting.

Examination in tandem

Examinations run in tandem with the law firm — counsel stays in the loop for privilege, scope, and production.

  • Engagement letters and scoping memos in counsel’s file.
  • Admin / authorized access obtained with the firm — tenant admin, mailbox export rights, device or chat exports as applicable.
  • Keywords and search parameters supplied by the law firm for litigation-approved reporting.
  • Optional testimony on process. We explain method; we do not claim a court certification the work does not require.

Typical matters: Employment and workplace investigations; Intellectual property and trade secrets; Fraud and financial misconduct; Regulatory and government inquiries; and more.

  5. 05

    Litigation-approved reporting & production

    We deliver hashed, audited packages counsel can stand behind. When the business also needs ongoing IT, cybersecurity, or compliance, Vital Edge IT Inc. is available as a follow-on — at counsel’s introduction.

When the business client needs IT

Introduce Vital Edge IT Inc. — only if it serves the client.

Mailbox and file examinations often surface a second problem: the client’s mail, backups, or HIPAA posture will not survive the next incident. Vital Edge IT Inc. provides managed IT, cybersecurity, compliance, cloud, and email security for those businesses — especially healthcare and other regulated operators in New England and nationwide.

The introduction is yours. We do not market around the firm.

Affiliate path

Firms that regularly introduce examinations can apply for a unique code and earn a starting 10% of forensic project-contract professional-services fees, paid after the invoice is collected.

Affiliate program

Introduce the matter. We will take the estate from there — with you.
