Social media expert witness for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, YouTube, and X litigation.

My patent work focuses on a specific question: when a YouTube video became publicly accessible and whether it can qualify as prior art. I trace the video's publication history and explain the platform evidence in a form that can withstand scrutiny.

Social media can shape a criminal matter long before a jury is seated. In one murder matter, I examined how online discussion and news coverage had influenced the local information environment, providing analysis for a motion to move the trial to another county.

My personal injury work includes sensitive, large-scale events that caused lasting harm to families. I examine how harmful content spread through platform algorithms and whether public posts, comments, or warning signs could have informed law enforcement before the event. The analysis connects complex platform behavior to the factual questions at issue in responsibility and damages.

A social media account can be both a public voice and a business asset, which makes its value central to some disputes. In one matter, I assessed the role an Instagram account played in a hotel brand's business and gave counsel a supportable dollar valuation. The same discipline applies to defamation and advertising matters, where the outcome turns on what was actually said and who actually saw it.

Social media evidence can help explain workplace conduct, harassment, and how platform features shape what users can create and share. In employment and forced-arbitration matters, I have analyzed Snapchat evidence involving alleged targeting and harassment, and explained how Snapchat works when the platform itself was central to the dispute.
