Investigations that settle cases and close deals.
Integra Intelligence is a licensed Washington investigations firm specializing in white-collar crime. We uncover pivotal evidence for plaintiffs in securities fraud, antitrust, and qui tam cases.
Who We Are
We investigate corporate misconduct across complex industries. When litigation demands technical expertise and investigative depth, clients turn to us for evidence that withstands scrutiny. Our work spans securities fraud, regulatory compliance, and corruption cases where understanding specialized markets makes the difference between winning and losing.
We're skilled fact finders who hail from investigative journalism — we've never depended on a badge to get anyone to speak with us. We regularly interview stock analysts, short-sellers, lobbyists, rocket scientists, coders, drug representatives, physicians, pharmacists, engineers, regulators, and other specialists who hold the keys to understanding how businesses operate. The breadth and depth of our network allow us to quickly identify and connect with optimal sources in every matter.
We find the stories obscured in datasets, identifying connections and contradictions that reshape narratives.
We use data to correlate seemingly unrelated events, and reconstruct complex schemes from fragmented evidence. Bank records become timelines of deception. Phone logs reveal undisclosed relationships. Corporate filings expose hidden ownership structures that contradict sworn testimony.
We see stories where others see piles of paper and extract narratives from document chaos. After working hundreds of securities fraud cases, we understand industry patterns and spot vulnerabilities that others miss.
By extracting the signal from the noise, we transform dull documents into courtroom ammunition. When opposing counsel claims ignorance, we deliver the documents that prove knowledge. When witnesses claim poor memory, we produce the records that restore it perfectly.
Documents
We uncover hard-to-find public records and trace paper trails that produce relevant evidence. Our searches blend boots-on-the-ground fieldwork with research savvy.

Data
Raw data tells no stories. Financial records, digital footprints, and document trails remain meaningless until skilled investigators extract their secrets. We sift through mountains of information to uncover patterns—the anomaly that exposes fraud, the timeline that proves deception, the connection that breaks a case wide open. Every investigation begins with questions. We deliver answers backed by evidence that stands up in court.

People
We conduct skilled interviews that extract reliable information and secure court testimony. Our expertise centers on witnesses who aren’t incentivized to cooperate — we excel at obtaining accurate statements and ongoing cooperation.
