Would factory resetting your phone be sufficient, or is data still recoverable even after the standard factory reset option on Android (and I assume, iPhones)? I don't really know much about these "serious forensics."

If the storage is encrypted (standard on iOS, depends for Android) then the data should be pretty well unrecoverable.
