SERVICE 04 — LITIGATION SUPPORT
Identification you can put your name to.
When the person behind a defamatory post, a harassment campaign, a leak or a fraud is anonymous or hiding behind a pseudonym, we identify them from public and commercially available digital sources and document how, in a report a solicitor can rely on for pre-action correspondence, a Norwich Pharmacal or disclosure application, or to decide whether a claim is worth bringing. We work only on instruction from a legal representative, and the scope is identification and research — not asset tracing, service of documents or surveillance.
Who it's for
Investigators
Insurance investigators and other professionals who need digital research delivered to their own standards and templates.

What you receive
A report written for a legal reader:
The conclusion and the confidence we attach to it
The evidential chain, each link sourced and dated
An explicit statement of the method and its limits
Where we cannot identify someone to a useful standard, we say so, and say what further step (a disclosure application, a platform request) would get there
Work is carried out under litigation privilege where your instruction establishes it.
WHY US
Identification is our core work
Identifying previously anonymous people has been the core of our work for more than a decade, from an in-house threat-intelligence team to independent practice. We have built our own systems for it.
We are members of the Association of Crime & Intelligence Analysts (ACIA), and we offer a free identification service to victims of anonymous stalking, referred through their solicitor or the police.
