Background Intelligence for Litigation and Trial Prep

Landmark Investigations provides legal background checks for attorneys in Nacogdoches, Texas to support witness vetting, jury screening, and opposing party research.

You are preparing for trial or a deposition in Nacogdoches, and you need background intelligence on a witness whose testimony could shift the case, or you need to know whether a jury pool candidate has prior litigation history that could bias their perspective. The information you need is not always obvious from public-facing searches, and you cannot afford to walk into a courtroom without knowing what is documented about the people involved.

Landmark Investigations conducts witness background investigations, jury pool screening, opposing party background research, asset searches, litigation history reports, and court document retrieval specifically for attorneys building cases or preparing for trial. Each search is tailored to the legal question you are trying to answer, and the results are delivered in a format that can be referenced during case preparation or shared with co-counsel.

If you need background intelligence on a witness, juror, or opposing party in Nacogdoches, contact Landmark Investigations to discuss your case timeline and research needs.

How the Research Is Conducted

Your research request begins with a case briefing where you provide names, dates of birth if available, known addresses, and the specific legal question you need answered in Nacogdoches. Landmark Investigations then searches criminal and civil court records, bankruptcy filings, liens, judgments, prior lawsuit involvement, property holdings, and business affiliations using county, state, and federal databases.

After the search is complete, you receive a written report that organizes findings by category, includes document images or summaries where applicable, and flags any inconsistencies or gaps in the public record. If you requested court document retrieval, certified copies or scanned filings are included as attachments.

Most background checks for legal cases are completed within three to seven business days depending on the number of jurisdictions involved and the depth of the search. Landmark Investigations does not provide legal opinions or testimony, but the reports are compiled with the understanding that they may be used to inform case strategy or witness preparation.

What Attorneys Usually Want to Know

Attorneys ordering background checks for trial preparation typically ask about search scope, turnaround time, confidentiality, and whether the reports can be used in court filings or shared with clients.

What does a witness background investigation include?
A witness background investigation includes criminal and civil court records, prior lawsuit involvement, employment history if discoverable, address history, and any liens, judgments, or bankruptcies tied to the witness. The goal is to identify credibility issues, bias, or undisclosed relationships that could affect testimony.
How is jury pool screening conducted?
Jury pool screening involves searching each prospective juror's litigation history, criminal record, bankruptcy filings, and any publicly available social media or news mentions. You receive a summary report for each juror that highlights potential bias, prior legal issues, or connections to parties involved in the case.
Can you retrieve court documents from other jurisdictions?
Yes, Landmark Investigations retrieves court documents from county, state, and federal courts across Texas and other states depending on your case needs. You specify which jurisdictions to search, and the documents are delivered as certified copies or scanned filings depending on availability.
How long does an asset search take?
Most asset searches are completed within five to seven business days and include property ownership records, business registrations, vehicle titles, and liens or judgments that could indicate financial holdings. The search is conducted across the jurisdictions you identify based on the subject's known addresses and affiliations.
Are the reports confidential?
Yes, all reports are prepared for attorney use only and are not shared with third parties unless you direct otherwise. Landmark Investigations understands attorney-client privilege and handles every case with confidentiality and discretion.
