Core services for attorneys:

• Litigation support & evidence collection — scene documentation, photographs, time‑stamped video, and preservation of physical and digital evidence for trials and hearings.
• Surveillance & activity documentation — covert or overt surveillance to establish patterns, corroborate testimony, or disprove claims (infidelity, fraud, injury, custodial matters).
• Witness locating & skip tracing — find witnesses, defendants, heirs, or debtors using public records, databases, and investigative techniques.
• Background investigations — comprehensive checks on parties, witnesses, corporate officers, or experts (criminal records, employment, litigation history, affiliations).
• Asset searches & asset verification — locate real property, bank accounts, vehicles, business interests, and hidden assets for enforcement, settlement, or collection.
• Process serving & proof of service — reliable, legally compliant service of summons, subpoenas, and other documents with verified affidavits.
• Digital forensics & e‑discovery assistance — preserve and extract data from phones, computers, and cloud accounts; assist counsel with chain‑of‑custody and evidence handling.
• Surveillance vehicle / GPS tracking (where legally permitted) — document vehicle movements and presence at locations relevant to a case (used only in compliance with law).
• Records retrieval & subpoenas — obtain DMV records, corporate filings, property records, medical release coordination, and court-filed documents.
• Expert witness coordination & affidavits — prepare investigator affidavits and coordinate with forensic or veterinary experts, when required.
• Pre‑trial preparation & deposition support — provide demonstrative exhibits, timelines, and investigator testimony support for counsel.

How we work with attorneys:

1. Confidential intake & conflict check — secure intake to review case facts, evidentiary goals, timelines, and conflicts.
2. Case plan & scope — we propose a focused investigative plan, estimated hours/costs, and legal compliance steps before work begins.
3. Evidence collection & chain of custody — all evidence is date/time stamped, securely stored, and accompanied by a documented chain‑of‑custody to maintain admissibility.
4. Regular updates & privileged communication — progress reports and raw evidence provided on a secure portal or under NDA; we follow counsel’s instruction on disclosures.
5. Final deliverables — comprehensive investigator report, annotated photo/video exhibits, affidavits, and certified copies of records ready for filing or deposition.
6. Court testimony — our investigators are available to provide sworn testimony and professional, factual presentation in court.
