Investigations + Business Intelligence

We find facts + provide solutions that serve our clients, wherever they operate worldwide.

We uncover the facts in complex, often multi-national, investigations utilizing comprehensive desktop, field, and cyber investigation methods. Whatever the context of the investigation, we tackle each assignment with the objective of providing you with the information required to make informed decisions, solve problems and protect assets.

Our team includes licensed investigators with experience working as federal and local prosecutors and law enforcement agents; digital forensic experts; forensic accountants; data and intelligence analysts; and former federal agents from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Secret Service, and the U.S. Marshal Service. Some have been called upon to testify as experts in federal and state courts.

Our capabilities, relationships and tools, allow us to effectively undertake any scope of investigation – nationwide and around the world – on a moment’s notice.
