Duces Tecum Investigative Services, LLC is a Florida private investigation agency providing professional investigative and litigation-support services to
attorneys, businesses and private individuals throughout Florida.
Based on Florida's Treasure Coast, we have a strong local focus on
Vero Beach, Sebastian, Fellsmere, Indian River Shores, Orchid, Gifford and surrounding Indian River County communities, as well as St. Lucie County, Martin County and Okeechobee County.
Our goal is straightforward:
find facts, document information and provide our clients with reliable investigative results they can use.
Whether an attorney needs assistance preparing a criminal defense or personal injury case, a business needs to investigate a prospective employee, or an individual needs help locating someone,
Duces Tecum Investigative Services approaches each assignment professionally, discreetly and methodically.
Experience, Professionalism and Attention to Detail
Successful investigations require more than access to databases. They require the ability to identify relevant information, recognize inconsistencies, locate people, conduct effective interviews, document findings and determine where additional investigation may be necessary.
At
Duces Tecum Investigative Services, we understand that every investigation is different.
We begin by identifying the client's objectives and developing an investigative approach appropriate for the circumstances. Rather than applying the same strategy to every assignment, we focus our efforts on obtaining information that is relevant to the specific matter.
Our investigative services may involve
records research, witness identification, interviews, background research, skip tracing, scene documentation, service of legal documents and other lawful investigative techniques.
Just as importantly, we understand the importance of
confidentiality, accuracy and professional documentation.
Investigative Services for Attorneys, Businesses and Individuals
Duces Tecum Investigative Services handles a broad range of investigative assignments throughout Florida.
Criminal Defense Investigations
Criminal cases should be examined independently and thoroughly.
We assist
criminal defense attorneys and their clients by investigating the facts surrounding criminal allegations.
Depending upon the case, our work may include locating and interviewing witnesses, examining available records, documenting locations, identifying potential inconsistencies and developing information that may assist defense counsel in evaluating the evidence.
Our role is not to determine guilt or innocence. Our responsibility is to
conduct an objective investigation and uncover information relevant to the defense.
Personal Injury Investigations
Evidence can disappear quickly following an accident or injury.
Our
personal injury investigative services can include witness identification and interviews, accident-scene documentation, photographs, record retrieval, claimant interviews and other investigative assistance needed by attorneys evaluating or litigating an injury claim.
Early investigation can be especially valuable when physical conditions change, witnesses become difficult to locate or memories begin to fade.
Civil Rights and Police Misconduct Investigations
Duces Tecum Investigative Services also provides investigative support for attorneys handling
civil rights and alleged police misconduct cases.
These matters can require careful examination of witness accounts, available records, photographs, video evidence, timelines and other information surrounding an encounter.
We approach these investigations objectively, documenting facts that may assist counsel in evaluating and developing the case.
Background Investigations
Knowing who you are dealing with can help reduce unnecessary risk.
We conduct
background investigations for businesses and individuals seeking additional information concerning prospective employees, contractors, caregivers, housekeepers, home-service providers and other individuals placed in positions of responsibility or trust.
The scope of a background investigation can be tailored to the client's needs and conducted using lawful investigative resources.
Skip Tracing and Locating Individuals
People can become difficult to locate for many reasons.
Our
skip-tracing services use investigative research, databases, public records and other lawful resources to develop current information that may help locate witnesses, defendants, former employees, debtors and other individuals whose whereabouts are unknown
Service of Process
Duces Tecum Investigative Services provides
professional service of process with particular emphasis on Florida's Treasure Coast and the
19th Judicial Circuit.
We assist attorneys, law firms and other clients with the delivery of subpoenas, summonses, complaints and other legal documents while providing diligent service attempts and appropriate documentation of our efforts.
Serving Florida's Treasure Coast and 19th Judicial Circuit
Local knowledge can be an important investigative advantage.
Our primary service region includes the four counties comprising Florida's
19th Judicial Circuit:
- Indian River County
- St. Lucie Ciunty
- Martin County
- Okeechobee County
Within this region, we regularly focus our services on communities including
Vero Beach, Sebastian, Fellsmere, Indian River Shores, Fort Pierce, Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Jensen Beach, Palm City and Okeechobee.
Our investigative capabilities are not limited to the Treasure Coast.
We serve clients and conduct investigative assignments throughout Florida when a case requires broader coverage.
Local Knowledge. Statewide Capabilities.
For attorneys and clients handling matters on the Treasure Coast, working with an investigator familiar with the region can make a difference.
Knowledge of local communities, roads, neighborhoods, government agencies, courthouses and records sources can help an investigator determine where to look and how to approach an assignment efficiently.
At the same time, today's investigations frequently extend beyond county lines.
A witness may have moved to another part of Florida. A background investigation may reveal connections elsewhere in the state. A case originating in Vero Beach may require investigative work hundreds of miles away.
Duces Tecum Investigative Services combines our
Treasure Coast presence with the ability to assist clients throughout Florida.
Confidential and Professional Investigative Services
Clients frequently contact a private investigator because they are dealing with a situation involving sensitive information.
We recognize the importance of discretion.
Information provided to our agency is handled professionally, and investigative assignments are conducted with respect for the confidential nature of the client's circumstances and within applicable law.
We also believe clients should understand what an investigation can—and cannot—reasonably accomplish. We discuss the objectives of the assignment, potential investigative approaches and the information available before determining how best to proceed.
