Finding and Obtaining Electronic & Social Media Evidence at Trial

Facebook has become a virtual treasure trove of information for attorneys – but there is very little guidance on how to best deploy this electronic evidence at trial. Trial attorney Dan Gilleon provides firsthand experience of how to obtain this electronic evidence and how to use it properly at trial. Mr. Gilleon utilizes case examples from his own practice and addresses ethical issues, the Brian Giles case, finding information on Facebook, prejudicial vs. probative electronic evidence, how to get this evidence in at trial, authenticating pictures and other electronic evidence at trial, and subpoenas. A recipient of the “Outstanding Trial Lawyer Award” given to him by peer attorneys, Mr. Gilleon’s extensive trial experience has led to several significant verdicts.
