BUSINESS DUE DILIGENCE
When you need a clear picture into an opaque company, it takes the right mix of methods and technology. We map corporate structure, ownership, equity and debt arrangements, and assets. We also examine background records, key personnel, supply chains, office locations, and public perception, using both traditional and non-traditional intelligence gathering techniques.
GLOBAL INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION
SURVEILLANCE
UpStream's network of surveillance operatives provides on-the-ground coverage across North America, Latin America, Europe, Australasia, and East Asia. Our in-house operations and support staff set operatives up to succeed by feeding them critical intelligence in real time. They handle traditional surveillance, online and social media investigations, and Hague Convention compliant process service.
BACKGROUND INTELLIGENCE
Whether records live online or on paper, we know where to find them. UpStream has retrieved documents tied to civil litigation, property ownership, business ownership, and criminal cases. Records are only part of the picture, though. Analysis of online and social media content often surfaces the insight that opens up a new line of investigation.
DEVICE FORENSICS
Cell phones, computers, vehicles, and more can be analyzed for relevant data. Most often, clients come to us to examine a cell phone, either to establish where someone has been or to confirm whether critical files exist. Everything we collect is delivered in a clear, defensible report that gives professionals authenticated data they can rely on.
GEOSPATIAL SERVICES
UpStream's network of FAA Part 107 certified drone pilots delivers critical insight into property claims, automobile collisions, and natural disasters. Orthomosaic imagery, video, and 3D textured models are all available, securely hosted on a web platform that is easy to navigate. Drone work can also be paired with high-resolution historic satellite imagery to build a timelapse of any area of interest.
JURY RESEARCH - JURYPRO
Comprehensive background checks and targeted online research help courtroom professionals make informed decisions during voir dire, trial, and post-judgment relief. When a federal case leaves only a small window for voir dire, UpStream can deliver background information on up to 160 jurors per hour. Our real-time communications platform is tailored to the issues that matter most in each case, delivering actionable intelligence in both state and federal courts.
