What we do.
LITTIGATION SUPPORT
Our company discovers difficult to find information in preparation for litigation. We identify, locate and interview witnesses, obtain and review documents, then provide concise summaries of our discoveries. Our experience conducting interviews is aided by interpersonal skills and professionalism, enabling us to gain the cooperation of people from all walks of life. In addition, we tenaciously pursue public records and other relevant documents. Knowledge of the law, and close collaboration with the client, ensures that evidence gathered during the investigation is admissible in court.
BACKGROUND INVESTIGATIONS
J. Mahoney & Associates, LLC, conducts exhaustive research and investigations of individuals and businesses so clients can make informed decisions. We interview neighbors and associates and secure relevant court records. We also conduct archival and historical research of people, places, and products. By working closely with genealogists, historians, and other research professionals we are able to find relevant documents.
INSURANCE DEFENSE INVESTIGATIONS
We provide investigative services to third party administrators, insurance companies, and law firms. Our investigators discretely document claimant’s activities to rebut allegations of injury. Using state of the art surveillance equipment and covert techniques we are able to capture video evidence.
SOCIAL MEDIA INVESTIGATIONS
Our firm stays current with the latest online investigative methods including open source intelligence (OSINT). To help prepare for all our assignments, we ethically scour social media platforms and publicly available information for useful intelligence that assists with our investigation. Electronic canvassing is used to identify witnesses which may not have been otherwise know to law enforcement. Our review of social media also helps to develop a timeline of where a person may have been and when. Monitoring an individual’s social media activity can lead to evidence which may contradict a legal claim or support it. Posts, comments, and photographs can determine hobbies, habits, and connections. Searching these sites takes skill and experience. We can efficiently find helpful information to assist with litigation support. .
