We know our clients. But do they know their opponents? To face your litigation adversary effectively, you need to know that opponent’s strengths and weaknesses. You should know the opportunities you have to win, and the implicit and explicit threats they represent for your client.

Our combination of Human Intelligence and Web Intelligence (from open sources in all strata of the Web as well as proprietary and paid databases) will provide you with comprehensive insights into your litigation opponent - often at a surprisingly rapid speed.

KYC-OR (Know Your Colleague’s Opportunities and Risks

We all want to hire the talent that is right for our organization. And none of us want to have an unpleasant surprise that can emerge when a new hire’s real past is eventually uncovered.

We gather it all together for you and provide a complete, relevant, insightful interpretation of who the job candidate really is.
