I wonder. Is the poor economy causing people to stay home and look for other ways to entertain themselves? I hope this isn’t the case, but lately, cases have been pouring in like rain through a leaky roof. All kinds of different cases. Unfortunately for my business, most of the cases are through Public Defenders (indigent defense) possibly because people can’t afford private lawyers. Any lawyers out there that can confirm this? While we’re at it, what is the consensus of the lawyers out there; would you rather have a Computer Forensic Analyst that has a good reputation but may not be close by or an Analyst that is close by geographically? Of course one choice is an Analyst that is good and close, but don’t use that choice in a response!

Of course I don’t mind doing Public Defender cases. I feel I am giving back to the community in a way. However, the private cases pay much better. One thing I can say is that the Private Detective Industry, and especially the Computer Forensic practice is unique. No matter what the state of the economy, business is almost always good. Hmmm…
