Our People

We're in the middle of a data revolution, and existing ways of managing information simply don't work anymore. INNOV-8 was founded by a veteran of major law firms and built around a multidisciplinary team of technologists and data management experts to radically reinvent how information is managed. We bridge law, data, and technology to help organizations turn information into meaningful results.

We created INNOV-8 because we saw in our own practices how inefficient our discovery process was — and how a lack of robust data management & analytics tools was slowing us down. We wanted to perform better, and we needed a tool that would help us accomplish that. Now, we help organizations collect and manage their data in a productive way that creates tangible results.

Our Forensic Collections and Analysis Team

Led by Raymond Seen, Director of E-Discovery, Forensics, and Project Management, INNOV-8’s forensics team helps clients identify, preserve, collect, analyze, and explain digital evidence for litigation, investigations, regulatory response, cyber breach, privacy, fraud, IP theft, shareholder disputes, ATIP/FOI matters, and other data-intensive legal work. The team combines legal-trained judgment with deep technical capability across computers, mobile devices, vehicle modules, cloud and internet artifacts, MacOS and Windows environments, SQLite databases, removable media, electronic devices, and complex data sources.

INNOV-8’s forensic bench is modelled on decades of specialized digital-forensics experience, including forensic examination of computers, cell phones, vehicle modules, modems, cameras, loose storage media, and other electronic devices; search-and-seizure support; advanced mobile extraction; unsupported-device data processing; detailed forensic reporting; and expert-ready explanation of findings. The team’s technical depth includes capabilities reflected by certifications and training in CFCE, Cellebrite mobile forensics, Oxygen Forensics, Berla vehicle-system forensics, Magnet AXIOM, IACIS mobile-device and advanced Windows forensics, MacOS examinations, internet and cloud investigations, incident response, SQLite analysis, JTAG, chip-off, ISP, board-level repair, and advanced mobile-device techniques.

Practical, Defensible, and Litigation-Ready

Our approach is practical, defensible, and litigation-ready. We help counsel and clients preserve evidence before it changes, maintain chain of custody, analyze the data that matters, and connect forensic findings directly to downstream eDiscovery, review, production, presentation of evidence, and AI-enabled discovery workflows. The result is a forensic capability that is technically sophisticated, legally grounded, and built for matters where accuracy, defensibility, and clear explanation are essential.
