Defence-Led Investigations

Ensuring your side of the story is properly presented

In many sexual offence cases, the police investigation is incomplete, one sided or focused solely on proving the allegation. Where appropriate, we carry out defence led investigations to ensure the full picture is presented.

Independent Investigators

  • tracing and interviewing witnesses
  • obtaining statements the police have not taken
  • locating CCTV or digital material
  • gathering background evidence relevant to credibility

Additional Witness Statements

We obtain statements from people the police have overlooked, including:

• friends
• colleagues
• neighbours
• witnesses to communication or behaviour
• people present before or after the incident

Digital and Communication Evidence

Independent analysis of:

• deleted messages
• social media
• dating apps
• location data
• metadata
• online activity

Expert Evidence

Where required, we instruct:

• forensic experts
• digital analysts
• psychologists
• psychiatrists
• medical experts
• memory and reliability specialists

Defence led investigations ensure your side of the story is properly presented.
