Criminal Defense Assistance

​

In a criminal defense case, a Private Investigator (PI) plays a crucial role in uncovering the truth, protecting the rights of the accused, and helping defense attorneys build a strong case. At NBG Investigation Group, we provide thorough, impartial, and legally sound investigative support for criminal defense matters across Oregon.

Our Criminal Defense Services Include:

  • Independent Case Review: We analyze police reports, witness statements, and evidence to identify inconsistencies, errors, or oversights in the prosecution’s case.

  • Witness Interviews: We locate and interview witnesses, including those overlooked or not interviewed by law enforcement, to gather testimony that supports the defense.

  • Evidence Collection & Preservation: We collect physical and digital evidence, such as surveillance footage, photos, or documents, ensuring it is preserved correctly for court use.

  • Background Checks: We conduct in-depth background investigations on witnesses, alleged victims, and other parties to uncover motives, criminal history, or credibility issues.

  • Crime Scene Re-examination: We revisit and photograph crime scenes to uncover missed details or conduct alternative theories of what may have occurred.

  • Expert Collaboration: We coordinate with forensic experts, accident reconstructionists, and other specialists when needed to support the defense strategy.
