Why do many attorneys misunderstand the importance of choosing the right cell phone forensic extraction method, and what are the potential consequences of this misunderstanding?

The choice of extraction method directly affects the amount and type of data retrieved from a smartphone.

This thorough approach provides a complete timeline of user activity, enabling a more accurate reconstruction of events.
