When a computer holds the answer, our examiners image it, preserve it, and read it the right way. Private-Eye provides court-defensible computer and laptop forensics for individuals, attorneys, and businesses in Tyler and throughout Smith County. Every examination begins with a write-blocked forensic image, so the original evidence is never altered and the findings hold up under scrutiny.

Our team recovers deleted files, reconstructs user activity, and builds a clear timeline of what happened on the machine and when. You receive a written report in plain language, backed by a technical appendix and a documented chain of custody that an attorney, insurer, or HR department can rely on.

Tyler sits within East Texas, where our examiners regularly support energy, manufacturing, and port operations across the Piney Woods and upper Gulf Coast. We work remotely from a forensic image where possible and travel for on-site acquisition when a device cannot leave your hands.

Common questions

Tyler computer forensics questions.

Straight answers to the questions Tyler clients ask first. If yours is not here, the first scoping call is free.

Do you need to keep my computer in Tyler?

In most cases we take a forensic image and return the device quickly, often within a day. We work from the image, so your computer does not sit in a lab for weeks.

Can the findings be used in court?

Yes. Our examinations follow defensible procedures, and reports are written to be presented to a court, an arbitrator, or opposing counsel. Our lead examiner is available for testimony when a matter calls for it.

What if the files were deleted?

Deleted does not always mean gone. Our examiners routinely recover deleted files, fragments, and traces of activity from areas of the disk that ordinary tools never show.
