Investigative Services
Our Investigative Services practice focuses on investigative methodology. While the subjects of investigations vary, the tools and steps we use are consistent. Investigations and applied research are our core function, providing data, insight and evidence to other areas. We emphasise planning, scrutiny, persistence, coherence and paperwork to ensure that all activities are legal and ethical. This practice area includes the following steps:

- Gathering and reviewing evidence: Collecting evidence through interviews, document reviews, public records searches, and analytical tools.
- Identifying and interviewing key individuals: Conducting targeted interviews with individuals who have critical information.
- Analysing and synthesising evidence: Using data analysis, statistical tools, and forensic techniques to evaluate evidence and identify patterns or connections.
- Documenting and reporting findings: Documenting findings, preparing detailed reports, creating visual aids, and giving evidence as required. Providing clear, objective analysis and recommendations for follow-up.
- Working with stakeholders: Liaising with lawyers, law enforcement and other investigators to share information and coordinate efforts.
