When the facts matter,
Duces Tecum Investigative Services provides professional, confidential, and dependable investigative services for attorneys, businesses, and individuals throughout Florida.
As a
Private Investigation Agency licensed by the State of Florida, we specialize in developing information that helps our clients make informed decisions, prepare legal cases, locate individuals, verify backgrounds, and uncover facts that may otherwise remain undiscovered.
Based on Florida's Treasure Coast, we primarily serve
Indian River County, St. Lucie County, Martin County, and Okeechobee County — the counties comprising Florida's 19th Judicial Circuit — while providing investigative services and support for clients throughout the state.
Whether you need a
Private Investigator, Process Server, Criminal Defense Investigator, Personal Injury Investigator, background investigation, or skip tracing services,
Duces Tecum Investigative Services is ready to assist.
Professional Private Investigation Services in Florida
Every investigation begins with a question.
- Where is the witness?
- What really happened?
- Is the information provided by an applicant accurate?
- Are there additional witnesses or records?
- Can a defendant be located?
- What evidence may exist beyond what has already been discovered?
Our job is to pursue those questions methodically and lawfully.
We provide investigative services tailored to the circumstances of each assignment rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. By combining professional investigative resources, public-record research, interviews, field investigation, and other appropriate methods, we work to develop
accurate, relevant, and actionable information for our clients.
Service of Process
Legal proceedings depend upon proper and timely delivery of court documents.
Duces Tecum Investigative Services provides
professional service of process throughout Florida's 19th Judicial Circuit, with primary coverage in
Indian River, St. Lucie, Martin, and Okeechobee counties.
We serve subpoenas, summonses, complaints, notices, and other legal documents while emphasizing prompt attempts, detailed documentation, accurate reporting, and communication with our clients.
When an address is outdated or the individual cannot readily be found, our investigative and skip-tracing capabilities can help develop additional location information.
Criminal Defense Investigations
An effective criminal defense may require an investigation independent of the information developed by law enforcement.
We work with criminal defense attorneys to examine the circumstances surrounding criminal allegations and develop facts relevant to their cases.
Our
criminal defense investigation services may include locating and interviewing witnesses, identifying potential new witnesses, conducting background research, examining public records, photographing locations, developing investigative leads, reviewing available information, and verifying statements or other facts.
Our role is to independently investigate and document information so defense counsel can evaluate the evidence and prepare the case from a more complete factual foundation.
Personal Injury Investigations
Accidents and injuries can generate evidence that disappears quickly.
Physical conditions change. Vehicles are repaired. Witnesses relocate. Video recordings can be overwritten. Memories become less precise.
Duces Tecum Investigative Services assists personal injury attorneys with investigations designed to identify, document, and preserve relevant information.
Our
personal injury investigative services may include accident-scene documentation, photographs, witness identification and interviews, locating parties, record retrieval, background research, and other litigation-support assignments.
Early investigative involvement can be particularly valuable when evidence or witness information may become more difficult to obtain over time.
Civil Rights &
Police Misconduct Investigations
Cases involving alleged
police misconduct, excessive force, or civil rights violations can require extensive independent fact-finding.
We provide investigative assistance to attorneys handling civil rights matters by locating and interviewing witnesses, researching records, documenting incident locations, identifying potential evidence, developing timelines, and investigating conflicting accounts of an event.
Our objective is to conduct a professional and impartial investigation that provides counsel with independently developed facts relevant to the case.
Background Investigations
Important decisions should be based on more than an application, résumé, online profile, or someone's representations about their past.
Duces Tecum Investigative Services conducts
professional background investigations for businesses, attorneys, and private individuals.
Background investigations may be useful when evaluating prospective employees, caregivers, housekeepers, contractors, vendors, business associates, and other individuals who may be given access to a home, family, property, finances, or confidential information.
Each investigation can be tailored to the client's legitimate needs and conducted using lawfully available information and investigative resources.
Skip Tracing & Person Location
Finding someone can become difficult when addresses, telephone numbers, and other information are no longer current.
Our
skip tracing and person-location services combine professional investigative databases, public records, research techniques, and other lawful resources to develop current information concerning an individual's possible whereabouts.
We assist attorneys, businesses, and individuals seeking to locate witnesses, defendants, parties to litigation, former tenants, relatives, debtors, and other individuals for legitimate purposes.
Skip tracing can also support service-of-process assignments when the subject is no longer associated with the address originally provided.
Witness Location & Interviews
Witness testimony can change the direction of an investigation or legal case, but witnesses first have to be identified and located.
Our Investigators assist attorneys by
locating witnesses and conducting professional interviews designed to develop information concerning what the witness saw, heard, or otherwise knows about an incident.
When appropriate, investigative interviews can help identify additional witnesses, clarify timelines, uncover inconsistencies, and develop new investigative leads.
Investigative Support for Attorneys
Duces Tecum Investigative Services understands the demands of litigation and the importance of reliable investigative support.
We work with attorneys handling
criminal defense, personal injury, civil rights, and other litigation matters requiring independent fact development.
Assignments may range from locating a single witness or serving a subpoena to more extensive investigations involving multiple witnesses, records, locations, interviews, and investigative leads.
Our goal is to provide counsel with
organized, professionally developed information that can assist with case evaluation and preparation.
Private Investigations for
Businesses and Individuals
Our services extend beyond the legal community.
Businesses may need assistance with background investigations, due diligence, locating individuals, verifying information, or investigating other legitimate concerns.
Private individuals may require help locating someone, researching a person's background, documenting circumstances, identifying public records, or addressing another matter where independently developed information could provide answers.
Every investigation begins by discussing the client's objectives and determining which investigative methods are appropriate for the circumstances.
