Criminal defense attorneys in Dallas-Fort Worth retain EJR Agency for one reason: thorough investigative work that holds up in court. With over 40 years of experience supporting Texas defense practices, our investigators understand what attorneys need — admissible evidence, credible witness statements, scene documentation, and findings that can withstand cross-examination.
We interview witnesses the prosecution missed or ignored. We re-examine crime scenes with fresh eyes. We verify or disprove alibis through field investigation. We locate and serve subpoenas on subjects who have gone off the grid. And we deliver case files prepared specifically for courtroom presentation — not generic investigative reports.
Defense investigations require a different mindset than civil work. Stakes are higher, timelines are tighter, and findings must be defensible under hostile cross-examination. EJR investigators have testified in Texas courts and understand both the evidentiary requirements and the strategic context of how findings will be used at trial.

Common Case Scenarios
Witness the Prosecution Missed
A defense attorney suspects there were additional witnesses to an incident that prosecutors did not interview. EJR canvasses the area, locates two witnesses with conflicting accounts of the timeline, and documents statements that become central to the defense.
Alibi Verification
A defendant claims to have been at a specific location during the time of the alleged offense. EJR verifies the alibi through surveillance footage requests, witness interviews, transaction records, and digital footprint analysis — building a documented timeline.
Prosecution Witness Background Check
A key prosecution witness has credibility issues that were not raised at the indictment stage. EJR builds a background profile showing prior false statements, motivation to testify, and inconsistencies that defense counsel uses on cross-examination.
Engage a Defense Investigator
Defense investigations are time-sensitive. Witnesses move, memories fade, scenes change. The earlier our investigators start work on your case, the stronger the evidence record at trial.
