How Investigators Can Save Attorneys Time

Handling a heavy caseload?

Private investigators can be time-saving allies. Here’s how:

1. Record Collection: Private investigators build relationships with records office staff over time. This means they can often fast-track requests and handle the legwork of digging up detailed records, freeing you to focus on the bigger picture.

2. Synthesizing Case Materials: As investigators sift through interview audios, 911 calls, police reports, and other discovery materials, they create comprehensive work products like witness lists, timelines, and summaries. These documents include timestamps and highlight critical information, keeping you organized and well-informed.

3. Witness Interviews: Organizing interviews around your busy schedule can be a nightmare. Private investigators handle witness interactions, conducting interviews during weekends and evenings, and extracting invaluable statements. They also provide detailed memos so you’ll feel as if you were there yourself. Plus, they’ll introduce you to witnesses they’ve already built rapport with, drastically reducing your prep time.

4. Client Assistance: You can’t be everywhere at once, but with an investigator on your team, it can certainly feel like it. Investigators extend your reach by handling essential tasks and visiting clients, enhancing client satisfaction and support.

5. Witness Wrangling at Trial: On the big day, having someone to help your witnesses can be a game-changer. Great investigators show up, stay organized, and are prepped and ready, allowing you to focus on presenting your case effectively in court.

Understanding and harnessing the full capabilities of private investigators can supercharge your legal work and boost your reputation in the field.
