Litigation support investigations Queensland conducted for legal proceedings

Litigation Support & Legal Investigations Queensland

Regional Queensland Investigations provides independent litigation support and legal investigations across Queensland for solicitors, barristers, in-house counsel and government legal teams.

Our investigations are conducted for matters where evidence, process and independence must withstand legal scrutiny, adversarial testing and external review. RQI operates as an independent investigator, separate from legal advice, to ensure findings are objective, defensible and reliable.

Independent Investigations for Legal Proceedings

RQI is engaged in matters where investigations are conducted in contemplation of, or during, legal proceedings, including civil, employment, regulatory and administrative matters.

We understand the distinction between legal advice and investigative fact-finding, and we operate within clearly defined scopes and terms of reference to support sound legal decision-making.

Who Instructs RQI for Litigation Support

Our litigation support and legal investigations are conducted on instruction from:

  • Solicitors and law firms

  • Barristers and counsel

  • In-house legal teams

  • Government legal services

  • Statutory authorities and regulators

  • Insolvency practitioners and professional advisers

RQI operates independently of the instructing party’s legal strategy, ensuring objectivity and evidentiary integrity.

Types of Legal Matters Supported

RQI provides investigative support in matters including:

  • Employment and workplace disputes

  • Disciplinary and termination matters

  • Civil and commercial disputes

  • Regulatory and compliance proceedings

  • Administrative and tribunal matters

  • Government and public sector investigations

  • Matters involving disputed facts or credibility issues

Each investigation is tailored to the legal context and procedural environment in which it will be relied upon.

Procedural Fairness and Evidentiary Standards

RQI’s Director holds formal legal qualifications, which inform the firm’s approach to investigative process, evidentiary handling and procedural fairness. While RQI does not provide legal advice, this legal training ensures investigations are conducted with a clear understanding of how evidence, findings and process are assessed in legal and regulatory contexts.

Investigations conducted by RQI are guided by principles of procedural fairness, independence and proportionality.

Our approach includes:

  • Clearly defined scopes and terms of reference

  • Fair and professional interview processes

  • Accurate contemporaneous notes

  • Objective analysis of evidence

  • Separation between investigation and decision-making

This ensures findings are capable of being relied upon by legal practitioners and decision-makers.

Investigation Methodology for Legal Matters

RQI litigation support investigations follow a structured methodology:

1. Scoping and Instructions

We work with instructing legal practitioners to define scope, objectives and reporting requirements.

2. Evidence Review

Relevant documents, records and materials are reviewed with attention to relevance, accuracy and continuity.

3. Interviews and Fact-Finding

Interviews are conducted professionally and fairly, with regard to procedural requirements and the legal context.

4. Analysis

Evidence is assessed objectively against the scope and relevant standards, policies or allegations.

5. Reporting

Findings are documented in a clear, factual report suitable for legal review, decision-making or disclosure if required.

Litigation Support and Surveillance Investigations

In appropriate matters, litigation support investigations may incorporate lawful surveillance investigations to corroborate or clarify disputed conduct.

Any surveillance activity is undertaken strictly for a lawful purpose and in accordance with Queensland legislation and evidentiary requirements.

Queensland-Wide Legal Investigation Capability

RQI conducts litigation support investigations throughout Queensland, including:

  • Brisbane and South East Queensland

  • Regional centres

  • Remote and regional communities
