How to unlock the Treason achievement in Mass Effect 2 - Definitive Guide
EDIT: There are reports of not getting the achievement when you do present the evidence, this is probably due to you ignoring Tali's wishes, and thus not gaining her loyalty.
Talk to Tali in between missions. She is on the lowest deck of the ship, in Engineering. Loyalty missions will not be available until after the mission on Horizon is completed.
Upon your arrival in the Migrant Fleet, Tali will be notified of her trial for treason against the Fleet. She is accused of sending active geth back to the fleet and those geth assuming control of a quarian ship. Agree to retake the ship from the geth in order to clear Tali. Once you retake the ship and have the evidence, return to the hearing. Respect Tali's wishes at the hearing and do not use the evidence.
Once Tali’s and Legion’s loyalty missions are complete, then there is a chance that they will get into a fight and you’ll have to choose to side with one of them. The longer that you wait to complete both of their loyalty missions, the higher your paragon/renegade rating will be to either diffuse the situation, or get one of them back loyal again. With a high enough paragon/renegade rating, you can end the fight and keep them both loyal. Use either the blue or red dialogue option on the left side.
See “Cat’s in the Cradle.”
Note: If you turn in the evidence and expose Tali’s father, she will not become loyal to you and you will not get the achievement.

Tali will ask you to help her in the Migratory Fleet's lawsuit against her. Talk to all the admirals after the first hearing to learn more about the underground infighting within the College of Admirals. Go to clear the ship. After you find out the truth about her father, return to the trial, but do not give up the truth about Tali's father and the trophy is yours. Otherwise, Tali may leave the team
