Courts are not licensing bodies. Judges are not tasked with ranking experts or deciding who is the “best” in a field.

Cellular analysis plays a crucial role in modern litigation. Attorneys often rely on Call Detail Records (CDRs) and tower information to reconstruct where a device was likely located. But these records only tell part of the story.

But while most attorneys understand call detail records and tower/sector information, very few realize that one of the most powerful location indicators in cellular forensics is something carriers normally don’t hand over unless you specifically request it

Today’s cars contain integrated telematics systems capable of recording and transmitting operational and location data with a level of precision that frequently surpasses what can be inferred from cellular records alone. In many cases, the vehicle is now the most objective witness available.

But a new form of digital infrastructure is quietly reshaping the litigation landscape: large-scale “SIM farms” or “SIM servers.”
