Case Development Consulting

What is Case Development Consulting?

Case Development Consulting is a specialized service where I meticulously review legal cases to uncover additional lines of questioning or crucial details that may have been overlooked. Acting as a third set of eyes, I analyze evidence, reports, photographs, audio recordings, and more, to explore whether an alternative context or narrative exists. This service is invaluable for both defense and prosecution, and in some instances, it’s about finding a pathway to reopen investigations that have stalled.

Recently, I was approached by a local attorney to review a case involving a tragic incident that resulted in a death. Despite a completed police investigation, the family was left dissatisfied with the findings and felt that critical aspects had been missed.

My role involved an exhaustive review of all available evidence, including photographs, reports, 911 tapes, and interviews. Through this detailed analysis, I identified inconsistencies where the evidence did not align with the police’s narrative. My work led to the development of probing questions for the attorney, which opened new avenues for investigation. Additionally, my findings were compelling enough to bring in a nationally recognized expert, who corroborated my conclusions. It became clear that the local police had made significant errors in their investigation, overlooking key details that could have altered the case’s outcome. This new information paved the way for re-establishing communication with the local police, ultimately leading them to reconsider their investigation—a rare and significant achievement in cases like this.

While I can’t divulge specifics about the ongoing aspects of this case, I can say that it has progressed in a positive direction, where previously all avenues seemed closed.

If you are facing a challenging case and need a fresh, thorough perspective, I am available to provide that critical second or third review. My expertise could help identify new lines of questioning or uncover overlooked details that could be pivotal to the case.
