Suffolk includes mid-market businesses, manufacturers, healthcare systems and Stony Brook academic and medical operations. East End matters are commonly residential or small-business work.
For Long Island matters, examiners are dispatched from the Manhattan intake at (212) 561-5860. On-site work is common at counsel offices in Uniondale, Garden City and Melville, at corporate premises across the island and at private residences where the record requires it.

Long Island practice notes
Planning a Long Island examination
Nassau corridor
Nassau collection planning starts with the custodian, source location, appointment and receiving person. Agree the travel window, equipment access and secure handoff before scheduling a visit; a regional listing is not a same-day availability commitment.
Suffolk corridor
For a Suffolk source, plan the travel, vendor access and receiving arrangements around the actual location and operating window. Authorized cloud collection may reduce travel needs, but its support and access must be confirmed separately.
East End matters
East End matters (Southampton, East Hampton, Amagansett, Montauk) are commonly high-net-worth residential or small-business matters where the record concentrates in personal devices, personal cloud accounts, home network equipment, and, in the residential-hospitality economy, vacation-rental platform records. The engagement is scheduled around the working season.
EDNY Central Islip practice
For matters in the Central Islip EDNY courthouse, preservation and collection is coordinated across the Long Island custodian locations and the report is prepared for the assigned chambers on the schedule set by the court.
Frequently asked
Common questions on Long Island matters
Do you serve the whole island, or only Nassau?
Both Nassau and Suffolk are covered. Nassau addresses in Great Neck, Manhasset, Garden City, Uniondale and Hempstead are within a normal drive from Manhattan. Suffolk addresses in Melville, Hauppauge, Ronkonkoma, Riverhead and the East End are handled with scheduled on-site visits and remote preservation where possible.
How do you handle EDNY Central Islip matters?
For matters seated in Central Islip, preservation and collection is performed at the custodian's Long Island location and the report is prepared for the assigned Central Islip chambers on the schedule set by the court.
Can you support a Long Island mid-market corporate matter?
Yes. Mid-market matters typically involve Microsoft 365, a small ERP or accounting system, an EDR product, a few line-of-business SaaS accounts, and a set of mobile devices. The engagement is scoped to those systems rather than a wholesale seizure.
Choose the county and collection arrangement
Use the Nassau or Suffolk page for the relevant venue and collection questions. The shared forensic methods are linked there; the practical difference is the actual custodian, source location and access window.
- For Nassau business or healthcare records, identify the local custodian and any Commercial Division order or provider approval.
- For Suffolk or East End devices and operating systems, identify travel, receiving arrangements and safety or vendor constraints.
- An illustrative regional register lists the source, county, owner, preservation status and whether work can be completed remotely.
- Confirm the collecting person, secure transfer, custody receipt and any site appointment before sending equipment.
