WORKPLACE CRIMES
Specializing in the hospitality business
As a member of the Monterey County Hospitality Association and a retired police supervisor, I know Internal/external thefts, workplace violence, harassment, vandalism and allegations against employees from customers are all a part of doing business.
For persisting problems C-Suite decision makers and HR professional need reliable information to determine the next course of action. Other than taking a report, Law Enforcement (LE) often lacks the time or resources to solve the problem. Unless you have an in-house investigator/security, you probably delegate criminal investigations to a trusted manager. Most managers already have a primary job duty and adding a chore they're not trained, qualified, or equipped to handle not only causes frustration, inadequate results, but may expose them to dangerous situations and legal backlash. As a retired police supervisor, a member of the Association of Workplace Investigators, and a criminal defense investigator, my methodology meets legal standards for both civil courtrooms and criminal courtrooms.
ATTORNEY CLIENTS
Don't Wait
Tomorrow is too late
​
Inserting an investigator at inception can be the best legal decision you make for your client. All too often law enforcement fails to interview key defense witnesses, record their statements, collect exculpatory perishable evidence, follow up on defense leads, state all the facts, and/or stay neutral as an investigation focuses in on a your client.
When evidence organically disappears, video is recorded over after a couple of days or weeks, witness contacts are lost or move away, etc. and you are getting close to trial, there's too little too late.
Daily I analyze discovery (police reports, Body worn camera footage, etc.) for client attorneys and provide an analysis report that summarizes the case, highlights key points, and presents a list of actionable items for further investigation. In some instances this may be all that is needed for litigators to negotiate with the prosecution or help their client make the best decision.
Urgent isn't cutting corners.
It is starting ASAP and working until all leads
are exhausted.
PROFESSIONAL SOLUTIONS
Not just outside the box, but a bigger box
This is the DIY and AI age where everyone can do anything themselves. The question is are you going to gamble your freedom, your future, and/or your assets on clickbait databases, AI interfaces, and internet and social media sleuthing? Every decision has serious consequences especially if you misinterpret information, create legal conundrums, make mistakes, and/or ultimately arrive at faulty conclusions. .
​I provide actionable choices for decision makers. The databases I access are only available to licensed professional investigators and attorneys. I utilize a global network of vetted experts to assist me wherever the investigation may lead. I follow industry standards and adhere to the ethics and guidelines of CALI, AWI and the ABA. I am regulated by the California Bureau of Security & Investigations (BSIS). By constantly training, I stay abreast of current issues and trends so that you can focus on what you do best, and I do what I do best.
