Client portal · Coming soon

CaseLink

Stay close to every case.

CaseLink is in development for Precision Analytics clients. Our upcoming portal will bring case intake, evidence exchange, progress updates, and completed work together in one place.

CJIS compliance is a core development goal. Security validation and applicable agency approvals will be required before production use.

  • Submit case materials

    Bring the case request, source files, and follow-up materials together.

  • Follow the progress

    See the current stage, next steps, and requests for additional information.

  • Keep conversations together

    Ask questions and review updates alongside the case they concern.

  • Receive completed work

    Find released reports, exhibits, and other deliverables in the case record.

Two ways to work with us

Case production.
Ongoing advice.

One coordinated team for technical questions, fieldwork, analysis, and courtroom explanation. Agree on the work and deliverables before it begins.

Full-case analysis & presentation

Meet to review the case, questions, and deadlines. Provide the relevant cellular records, social media, LPR observations, video, and other evidence.

We analyze and correlate the material, including pattern of life where supported, then build integrated maps, timelines, presentations and/or evidence video. Explanatory slides help judges and juries understand the technology, findings, and limits. Expert testimony is available within the agreed scope.

Year-round advisory access

Work through developing cases with an experienced analyst. We review returned records, identify gaps, and help draft and review the technical language of search-warrant requests.

Act early: retention varies by provider and record type. We help identify preservation needs before data becomes unavailable. Preservation and disclosure are separate steps; counsel directs the legal process.

Our 12-month Agency Partner arrangement includes unlimited reasonable advisory access and six mutually designated analysis-to-trial case packages, usable throughout the year. Production for those cases follows the agreed scope. Additional or unusually complex work, vehicle examinations, and training require separate approval; field surveys follow the case scope. Availability and response expectations are agreed in advance.

Your case depends on evidence that people can understand. Precision Analytics helps prosecutors connect complex records to the questions that matter and present the findings with confidence.

We analyze cellular and geolocation records. This includes call activity, cell site information, timing advance, and available GPS data.

We compare a phone’s activity before, during, and after a crime with its established patterns of use. Consistent routines, locations, and communications can help establish that the same individual possessed the phone throughout that period. We present those connections clearly so a jury can understand the evidence supporting that conclusion.

We bring phone and vehicle records together with surveillance, license plate reader observations, social media, and other evidence. Then we turn the analysis into clear maps, timelines, and synchronized video presentations.

Our support continues through written findings, trial preparation, and expert testimony, explaining the methods, conclusions, and limitations so attorneys, judges, and juries can follow the evidence.

We also support active investigations, help identify useful records and production issues, and train prosecutors and investigators.

Our team brings more than fifty years of combined law enforcement experience, specialized training, and experience testifying in state and federal courts.

That experience includes homicides, robberies, carjackings, and complex organized crime investigations, including federal RICO cases.

Most cases our team works reach negotiated pleas after our analysis and presentations are shared. Making the evidence easier to evaluate can help move a case toward resolution before trial, saving the prosecution additional trial preparation, court time, and expense.

When a trial is necessary, our team brings a record that includes trial convictions and experience explaining complex evidence in court.

When your case demands precision, put our experience to work for your office. Contact us to discuss your next case.
