Criminal Defense Investigations
The truth uncovered
A criminal defense investigation is an undertaking that seeks, collects, and gathers evidence of a crime for a case or specific purpose. A criminal defense private investigator looks for clues and evidence to determine whether a crime has taken place. If a crime has been committed, investigators may look into the background of the accused and try to uncover who committed the crime.
We interview the client, review the police report, interview witnesses, retrieve data from devices, go to the crime scene, take measurements, photographs & video, etc. Depending on the case, we might recommend a limited or comprehensive lie detection examination for defense counsel.
CIVIL RIGHTS CRIMINAL DEFENSE
Our mission related to a criminal civil rights defense investigation is to dig deep into the background of the officer(s) involved, reason for contact and action of the officer(s); and were the actions justified, or could have been handled differently.
Law enforcement officers make mistakes; we'll find mistakes and civil rights violations. Police agencies try to hire the best officers for their department, however many officers are making improper decisions, are overly aggressive, lie on their reports, stop and search a vehicle or detain and search a person without probable cause or even reasonable suspicion.
Video cameras frequently capture law enforcement officers of wrongdoing. However, when the camera is not there to capture the officer(s) wrongful act(s), we’re here to dig deep!
Why do I need a criminal investigator?
They operate within the law to find evidence; criminal defense investigators can gather evidence of wrongful conviction or accusation.
A crime is an intended action that is against the rules of law for a community. A criminal trial in which punishment is pursued by the government, differs from a civil trial, which involves individuals debating their rights.
Criminal acts, such as sexual assault, physical assault, murder, theft, property damage, and vandalism, would call for investigators to gather evidence to assist defense counsel to have the charges dropped or reduced.
We specialize in criminal defense because we know innocence can be distracted by dishonesty and error by law enforcement & prosecutors.
