Criminal Investigations

Our tailored criminal and civil investigations meet the highest standards of evidential admissibility, led by expert former detectives from elite law enforcement units. They excel at complex, high-profile investigations and sensitive intelligence gathering using overt and covert techniques acquired from years of experience and enhanced datasets. We support ongoing litigation across multiple jurisdictions through bespoke criminal investigations, working with specialist law firms. Our strategy involves detailed interviews and obtaining statements and exhibits from key witnesses, examining digital material, and conducting criminal interviews of suspects. We also pursue open and closed source research, prepare unused material schedules, and manage disclosure to adhere to CPIA guidelines. ‍ We present a comprehensive case file to Counsel for evidential review in criminal investigations, drawing from our experience in complex trials at Crown and Central Criminal Court. The file includes a prosecutors’ report, case summary, prosecution and court bundles, witness and exhibit schedules, and disclosure management document, among other elements. Our goal is to construct a high-quality file that can withstand scrutiny and prevent issues at court. ‍ Our investigators have years of experience in conducting complex criminal investigations. Being a lead investigator at court for a complex trial and to be cross examined is in itself a skillset which is becoming increasingly hard to find. ‍ Our criminal investigations often result in early guilty pleas and criminal convictions due to the robust investigation and evidence gathering process.
