A Division of SIS Investigations
Investigations that hold upunder cross-examination.
We build the factual record for public entity liability, school district, and abuse litigation. Every fact sourced, cross-checked against every other fact, and confirmed by an investigator before it ever reaches your desk.
The problem
A report you have to re-check isn't a report.
Too many investigative reports arrive either as a wall of near-verbatim transcript or as a summary so condensed the detail that matters to the case has been sanded off. Either way, the work lands back on your desk: someone on your team goes into the raw interviews and records to confirm what actually happened.
That defeats the entire purpose of retaining an investigator.
SIS Liability rebuilt the process around a single principle: the factual record is assembled and verified before any report is written, not reconstructed from raw material each time someone needs an answer.
The standard we work to
Rigor you can trace back to the page and the timestamp.
No surprises at deposition
Contradictions between witnesses and gaps in the timeline are surfaced to you in advance, not discovered live by opposing counsel.
Full traceability
No finding stands alone. Everything links to an exact source: a specific recording timestamp or document page, verifiable in seconds.
Human sign-off on every fact
An investigator reviews and confirms each fact before it can appear in a report. Nothing reaches you unchecked.
The same structure every time
Regardless of which investigator worked the case, your team always knows exactly where to find what it needs.
Practice areas
Where we work
Litigation-support investigation for firms carrying complex liability matters against public institutions.
Attorney Civil Liability
Matters where an attorney's own conduct is at issue: professional negligence, fiduciary duty, and civil exposure claims requiring an independent factual record.
Public Entity Liability
Claims against municipalities, agencies, and public boards where the record is scattered across departments and custodians.
School District Litigation
Negligence and abuse matters involving districts, personnel, and campus records, handled with the discretion they require.
Negligence & Abuse Claims
Complex fact patterns with multiple witnesses, shifting accounts, and timelines that have to hold up under cross.
What your firm receives

Who we are
Not a startup with an app. An investigative firm that modernized its process.
SIS Investigations has spent 37 years and more than 1,000 cases doing this work. SIS Liability is our division built exclusively for attorneys: litigation-support investigation, nothing else.
The methods behind the record are modern. The judgment applied to it is human, and it belongs to investigators who have testified, been cross-examined, and know what a record has to survive.
