(NYSE: FCN) today announced that the firm’s Technology segment has appointed Corey Gildart and Brad Hadamik as Managing Directors in the Digital Forensics & Investigations practice, adding to the team’s robust, multidisciplinary capabilities in complex investigations, disputes and analytics.

Mr. Gildart brings more than 15 years of experience extracting critical information and deriving meaningful insights to bolster client claims, defenses and general data awareness in complex litigation and investigations.

He has also worked within Big Four firms and has extensive experience assisting with Foreign Corrupt Practices Act investigations, multidistrict litigation and the use of investigative text analytics to understand key facts and evidence in complex matters.

With 17 years of experience in digital forensics, forensic analysis, litigation readiness and consulting, Mr. Hadamik supports clients in global investigations, litigation, audits and other high-risk matters. He has provided written testimony to courts and regulators relating to the forensic analysis of mobile devices and other systems for numerous disputes and investigations.

Together, Corey and Brad bring more than 30 years of experience in digital forensics, e-discovery and analytics to our team, and they will be invaluable in supporting our clients as they face more demand and more data-related challenges.”
