Sixteen US Offices, Local Lines and a 24/7 Hotline
Find the GDF Office Closest to Your Evidence
Evidence sits where people work: a laptop in Atlanta, a tenant run from Chicago, a phone that travels between Miami and New York. Global Digital Forensics serves law firms and companies from sixteen US offices and an international line, with examiners who have testified in federal and state courts since 1992. Call the office nearest the evidence, or the 24/7 hotline for an active incident anywhere in the country.

Your first call
Tell Us Where the Evidence Sits
On the first call a senior examiner asks where the devices and accounts are, who controls them and what deadline applies, then tells you what can be preserved today and which office will run the work. The consultation is free and handled in confidence. We arrange a secure transfer for evidence and passwords.

One Evidence Plan Across Every Office
Most matters touch more than one city. A sales director resigns in Boston with a laptop, a phone and a mailbox administered from the Chicago headquarters, and the customer files went to a personal cloud account the night before. We run that as one engagement: one source register, one custody record and one examiner accountable for the result, with the nearest office handling the devices and the rest collected remotely.
The people who plan the work are the people who testify about it. Joseph Caruso, founder, CEO and CTO, holds the CISSP and brings a technology career that began in 1980 to the technology disputes he supports for counsel. Robert Knudsen brings eighteen years of forensic casework, the CISSP and the Certified Computer Examiner credential after twenty years with the New York City Police Department. Veronica Perez, Senior Computer Forensic Specialist, served with Los Angeles area police departments and has taught mobile forensics for the California Department of Justice Advanced Training Center.
For an employee departure, bring three facts to the first call: the company information at issue, where each device is and who administers each account. That is enough to start preservation the same day.

Call (800) 868-8189 with the offices, the devices and the administrators involved, and a senior examiner will build the plan across every region it touches.
Remote Export, Device Handoff or Site Visit
The source decides the method, not the map. A Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace tenant is usually exported remotely by an authorized administrator; a phone can often be collected over a secure link while its owner keeps using it; a server room or a plant floor gets an agreed site visit. We settle which fits each source on the first call, then schedule the appointment before any equipment moves.
A device handoff needs an agreed receiver, item identifiers, packaging, a note of the condition on arrival and a custody receipt. A tenant export needs an authorized administrator, the retention and licence details, the selected records and a secure transfer route. A matter that spans several offices needs one source register showing the owner of each source, its location, its collection status and any unresolved access question. Each city page lists the courts and the source questions that come up most there.
