Barrett Critical Incident Consulting provides independent analytical support in police use-of-force and critical incident matters. Inquiries are welcomed from attorneys seeking early case evaluation, focused analysis, or litigation support.
Initial contact is intended to determine scope, relevance, and fit—not to commit counsel to continued engagement.
Early contact is often helpful when:
A use-of-force issue may be central to the case
Video evidence plays a significant role
Decision-making under time pressure is likely to be scrutinized
Counsel is evaluating whether expert analysis is warranted
Early, independent analysis can clarify issues before positions harden and costs escalate.
Email is the preferred method of initial contact
For case inquiries:
dustan@barrettcriticalconsulting.com
Please include, if available:
Jurisdiction
General nature of the matter
Current procedural posture
Any known deadlines
Do not include sensitive or privileged materials in an initial inquiry.
All inquiries are handled professionally and with discretion. Scope, conflicts, and availability are addressed prior to any engagement.
No analysis is performed, and no opinions are formed, until terms of engagement are agreed upon.
