Computer Expert Witness Services in the UK
Computer Forensics Lab provides specialist computer expert witness services for solicitors, law firms, law enforcement agencies, company directors, and private individuals across the UK. Our digital forensics experts have represented both private and business clients in UK Crown Courts, Magistrates’ Courts, and civil litigation matters.
We are frequently instructed to collect, analyse, interpret, and present digital evidence from a wide range of devices, including:
- Desktop computers and laptops (Windows, macOS, Linux)
- Mobile phones and tablets (including iPhones and Android devices)
- External hard drives, USB memory sticks, and SSDs
- Servers, RAID/NAS storage systems, and networked computers
As technology continues to evolve, so too do the challenges faced by the legal industry. The rise of digital communication, online storage, and remote working means that digital evidence now plays a pivotal role in both civil and criminal proceedings. Computer Forensics Lab bridges the gap between complex technical evidence and the legal standards required by UK courts.
The Role of a Computer Expert Witness
A computer expert witness provides independent, impartial technical evidence to assist the court in understanding complex digital issues. Our experts prepare detailed forensic reports that can withstand scrutiny from opposing counsel, judges, and juries.
Once a digital forensic examination is complete, we deliver a comprehensive report to the instructing solicitors. If required, our experts can attend court to give oral testimony, explaining findings clearly and objectively. We are often instructed under Part 19 of the Criminal Procedure Rules or Part 35 of the Civil Procedure Rules, depending on the type of case.
In some instances, the court may appoint Computer Forensics Lab as a Single Joint Expert, providing an independent opinion that is reported directly to the court. This helps streamline proceedings and ensure impartiality in matters where both sides require expert insight into digital evidence.
