When a legal case depends on facts, evidence, and credible testimony, you can't rely on assumptions or incomplete information. That's where legal investigations come in.

Legal investigations support attorneys, law firms, corporations, and private clients by uncovering the verified facts needed to build strong cases, support legal strategies, and resolve disputes.

At National Business Investigations, Inc. (NBI), we have provided professional legal investigation services for over 50 years, helping clients gather accurate, admissible, and actionable information they can rely on in court.

What Is a Legal Investigation?

A legal investigation is a targeted, professional inquiry conducted to gather evidence and information for use in legal proceedings. Unlike general research or background checks, legal investigations follow strict standards of accuracy, documentation, and admissibility so the findings can hold up before a judge or jury.

Legal investigators work closely with attorneys to uncover key facts that can:

• Strengthen a legal claim
• Disprove false allegations
• Locate critical witnesses
• Recover financial losses
• Support negotiation or settlement

In short-legal investigations help ensure the truth is seen clearly.

Common Uses for Legal Investigations

Legal investigations are used in a wide range of cases, including:

1. Civil Litigation Support

Gathering evidence to support lawsuits involving injury, fraud, property disputes, breach of contract, and more.

2. Criminal Defense Investigations

Reviewing evidence, locating witnesses, and uncovering new information to ensure every client receives a fair defense.

3. Witness Location & Interviews

Finding key witnesses who can confirm or clarify events-and conducting interviews to preserve testimony.

4. Asset Searches

Identifying hidden or undisclosed assets in divorce cases, corporate disputes, and judgment recovery.

5. Background Investigations

Verifying the credibility of individuals involved in a case, including plaintiffs, defendants, and expert witnesses.

6. Surveillance & Evidence Documentation

Collecting time-stamped visual proof that supports or disproves claims-especially in workers' comp, injury, and fraud cases.

What Makes Legal Investigations Different from Standard Investigations?

Legal investigations must meet a much higher standard of proof.

Evidence must be:

• Collected ethically and legally
• Documented clearly
• Preserved in chain-of-custody
• Able to withstand court scrutiny

This is where experience matters.
