A very high percentage of the potentially discoverable data created by organisations now lies in mobile devices, a fact which seems to have escaped the attention of many lawyers. It becomes increasingly important to understand how to recover data from phones, tablets and other devices, and to do so quickly and proportionately.

This is a field in which AccessData has both the tools and the relevant expertise. An article on the AccessData website explains how this is done using AccessData’s Mobile Phone Examiner plus (MPE+) nFIELD.

The starting point, of course, is to think through whether your discovery obligations include the examination of such devices.

The article is backed by a video which you see below.
