Robust Investigations

At Kelley Kronenberg, we conduct a matter-specific meticulous analysis of each case, prioritizing the determination of foreseeability regarding the specific crime in question. Collaborating with safety experts, law enforcement, and investigators, we diligently gather comprehensive information about the property and the surrounding area where the incident occurred.

Our approach involves a thorough analysis of temporal and geographic proximities of prior crimes, drawing distinctions between past incidents and the alleged crime at issue. This careful consideration and attention to detail underscore our commitment to delivering a nuanced and well-informed perspective on each case, ensuring the highest level of legal representation for our clients.
