Value proposition
From Evidence to Impact
Strategic infrastructure for civil rights and criminal defense litigation.
1. Building the Monell claim
Establishing municipal liability requires proving a custom or policy of misconduct. That is nearly impossible with a single case file.
- Pattern-of-conduct analytics to link similar reports across a department.
- Department heat maps that show recurring misconduct hotspots.
- Evidence to prove deliberate indifference by city leadership.
We provide the evidentiary foundation to pierce municipal immunity and build a Monell-ready record under Section 1983.
2. Courtroom-ready evidence preservation
Immediate statement capture
Contemporaneous records
Give clients a safe, independent link to record the arrest timeline while details are fresh.
Evidence vaulting
Chain of custody
Link raw video, witness statements, and photos to a structured case file so public-interest evidence stays intact.
3. Strategic redaction workflow
Control how and when evidence is published while protecting witness identities and litigation strategy.
Private drafts
Create and store reports privately for internal firm use.
Controlled publication
Release evidence or summaries only when it supports case strategy.
Anonymized reporting
Protect client identities while still contributing to pattern data.
