Locus report & statement taking

Locus report

Acumé visits the location of the incident to take measurements, record sightlines and take photographs, providing a logistical overview of the accident and how it occured.

We provide either an 'at‐a‐glance' locus plan to be printed or an interactive plan for digital devices.

Our interviewers are trained to Tier 2 level by the National Investigative Strategy. Statements are taken from drivers, passengers, third parties and witnesses. These interviews can be carried out using interpreters and in the presence of solicitors where necessary. Our engineers are able to take technical statements when appropriate.

All investigations comply with the following:

Human Rights Act 1998

Data Protection Act 1998

Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000

Criminal Procedures and Investigations Act 1998

Acumé has built relationships with agencies such as the police, taxi firms, licensing authorities and bus companies. We also carry out basic internet searches on individuals and companies.
