Insurance fraud investigations in Nashville

When a claim does not add up, the details tell the story: who was really in the car, whether the loss happened the way it was reported, and whether the people involved know each other. We find those details.

Insurance fraud ranges from an exaggerated injury to organized staged-accident rings. Each needs a different approach: a staged collision calls for scene work and relationship mapping; an inflated property loss calls for records, receipts and witness interviews.

We investigate methodically and document how every finding was obtained, so the work holds up whether the outcome is a denied claim, a referral, or litigation.

Red flags we are asked to look into

  • Low-speed collisions with unusually high injury claims
  • Claimants, witnesses and providers who appear in multiple claims
  • Losses reported shortly after a policy was purchased or increased
  • Receipts or documentation that do not match the claimed property
  • Inconsistent accounts of how and where the loss happened
  • Claimants who are hard to reach or who change representatives often

How we investigate a suspicious claim

  • Scene canvass and photography, including nearby cameras worth preserving
  • Recorded statements and witness interviews where authorized
  • Relationship mapping between claimants, witnesses and vendors through public records
  • Background and prior-claims indicators from lawful sources
  • Activity checks when injury severity is in question

What you receive

  • A structured findings report with sources
  • Photos, statements and documents organized by issue
  • Relationship charts where multiple parties are involved
  • Support for referral or litigation

Tennessee law that matters here

Lawful methods

Interviews are voluntary and we identify ourselves as investigators. We do not use pretexts to obtain protected financial or phone records.

Referral

Suspected insurance fraud may be referred to the appropriate authorities by the insurer. We prepare evidence so that a referral is useful.

Questions about this service

Insurance fraud questions

Do you only work for insurance companies?

No. We also work for self-insured businesses, defense attorneys and, in some cases, individuals who believe they are being targeted by a fraudulent claim.

Can you find out whether people in a crash know each other?

Often, through public records, social media and interviews. Relationship mapping is a core part of staged-accident work.

What about nearby security cameras?

Footage is often overwritten quickly. We canvass early and identify cameras so that you or your attorney can request preservation.
