Hawk PI Earns Accreditation as CLE Provider

“Over the past few years, we have seen an increase in questions about digital devices in all types of cases. As technology becomes more integrated in our lives, it will also become more intertwined in cases especially in family law.” said Brent M. Williams, president of investigative services at Hawk PI. “Investigations on cell phone, computers, tablets and other devices has only recently become available to the private sector and as one of the first to offer these services, we want to ensure that attorneys have the understanding and access to these investigations.”

Beth Messick, Hawk PI’s director of digital forensics, relies on her more than 20 years of experience with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to conduct device investigations. “In family law cases, we see a lot of questions concerning cell phones and especially a child’s device which may be traveling between households. Not only do these devices hold a wealth of information, they can also have vulnerabilities that in the wrong hands can be exploited.”

Hawk PI will be offering these complimentary courses monthly. Additionally, courses will be available for scheduling by law firms at their request. This program is approved for 1.0 CLE credits by the State Bar of Georgia and is the first of several courses in development for different technology-based investigative techniques and areas of law.

Hawk PI has provided investigations and security consulting to leading law firms, businesses, and high profile individuals for more than 30 years. The firm was voted Georgia’s top investigative firm for five consecutive years (2015-2019) and is a member of the Daily Report Hall of Fame.
