About Data365 Evidence
Data365 Evidence is a Boston-based, founder-led preservation-first evidence handling service for legal, insurance, and compliance matters that call for clear scope, controlled handling, and reliable records.
Overview
Data365 Evidence supports preservation planning, controlled handling, and structured records suited to legal or insurance review. Engagements are framed around the sources involved, the handling required, the matter authority confirmed in writing, and the materials expected at close-out.
The service is designed for matters where source condition, access, timing, or transfer logistics make informal handling risky once routine use, reassignment, deletion, or later analysis begins to narrow what remains available.
Why teams engage Data365 Evidence
- Intake is clarified before handling starts
- Identified sources are handled under a clear matter plan
- Preservation remains separate from later interpretation or expert activity
- Close-out records reflect the handling performed
- The service remains neutral and commercially disciplined throughout the engagement
The emphasis is disciplined handling and usable records, not a broad consulting posture.

Neutral Preservation-First Role
- Engaged to preserve, acquire, or transfer identified sources within confirmed engagement terms
- Provides records tied to the handling performed, the approved transfer path, and close-out expectations for the matter
- Remains separate from merits advocacy, legal opinions, and outcome-driven interpretation unless separately retained
Engagement boundary: Service limits, exclusions, and separate-retention items are set out on the Scope of Services page and then carried into the matter-specific engagement materials.
Why the practice is structured this way
Many matters require source handling before routine use, access changes, device turnover, retention settings, or internal transitions complicate the record. The practice is structured so those issues can be addressed through defined intake, controlled handling, and clear close-out materials.
This preservation-first structure keeps handling decisions clear, keeps records aligned to the handling performed, and preserves separation from any later analysis or expert activity.
