Accurate, Defensible Information Gathered Through Structured Interviews
At Locke & Steele Investigative Services, professional interviews and witness statements are a critical part of uncovering the truth and strengthening a case. Whether supporting attorneys, insurance carriers, businesses, or government entities, our investigators conduct thorough, legally sound interviews designed to obtain accurate and reliable information that can withstand legal scrutiny.
Interviews and statements often form the foundation of a successful investigation. Key witnesses, involved parties, employees, neighbors, and other individuals may hold information that helps clarify events, confirm timelines, or reveal inconsistencies in a claim. Our investigators approach each interview with a structured methodology that encourages cooperation while carefully documenting relevant details.

Our investigators bring extensive experience from law enforcement, military service, and professional investigative backgrounds, allowing them to gather information professionally while maintaining objectivity and credibility.
Structured Interviews Backed by Preparation and Documentation
Each interview begins with careful preparation. Investigators review available records, reports, and background information in advance so that questions can be targeted and efficient. During the interview process, we focus on building rapport with the individual while also asking precise questions that help clarify facts and identify potential inconsistencies.
When appropriate, our investigators obtain written or recorded statements that clearly document what a witness observed or experienced. These statements often play an important role in helping attorneys prepare for litigation, assisting insurance companies in evaluating claims, or supporting organizations conducting internal reviews.
