“Internet and Computer Crimes” can encompass a wide range of criminal offenses, from hacking and identity theft, to online fraud and data breaches, and sex-based offenses as discussed below. Effectively defending against these types of crimes requires not only a strong legal strategy but also an understanding of the underlying technology involved.

Often, attorneys will consult digital forensics experts who can analyze and interpret critical evidence such as metadata, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, system logs, and even deleted or encrypted data. These experts play a key role in reconstructing events, identifying unauthorized access, and tracing any manipulation of digital systems.
