Fact Witness Connections That Win Cases for Trial Lawyers

Fact Witness Connections That Win Cases for Trial Lawyers
Whistleblower Cases

August 6, 2025

Trial lawyers face a fundamental challenge in every major case: how to secure the crucial evidence and testimony that will turn the tide. When it comes to complex litigation, the right witness can make the difference between a favorable verdict and a disappointing result. This is where Stratejic Relationships comes in, offering a specialized service that delivers impactful fact witnesses and whistleblowers to trial lawyers nationwide.

Why Fact Witnesses and Whistleblowers Matter

In cases involving personal injury, product liability, consumer class actions, and antitrust, defendants often hold all the cards. Critical information, internal practices, and harmful patterns can be hidden from public view, making it difficult for plaintiffs to build a compelling case. Fact witnesses, particularly ex-employees, can unlock this information and provide attorneys with an insider perspective that can’t be found in public records or discovery alone.

Whistleblowers and knowledgeable ex-employees help reveal negligence, regulatory violations, safety oversights, price-fixing schemes, and systemic misconduct. Their testimony adds credibility, context, and detail to your case, often resulting in higher settlement values and greater leverage during negotiations.

Who Is Stratejic Relationships?

Stratejic Relationships is a boutique firm dedicated to helping trial lawyers find, connect with, and secure relevant witnesses for their most challenging cases. With 18 years of experience and a national network of contacts, the firm specializes in uncovering hidden case details that can change the course of litigation. Under the leadership of founder Paul Littrell, Jr., Stratejic Relationships has become the trusted source for fact witness connections in the legal industry.

Practice Areas Supported by Stratejic Relationships

Personal Injury and Wrongful Death:
Stratejic Relationships supports cases involving elder abuse, trucking accidents, workplace injuries, premises liability, and other catastrophic events. By connecting trial lawyers with ex-employees and eyewitnesses, the firm helps build strong narratives around liability, damages, and the defendant’s conduct.

Employment Law:
From wage and hour violations to wrongful termination and workplace discrimination, Stratejic identifies potential class representatives and sources witnesses who can confirm employer practices. This service is invaluable for class actions and lead plaintiff replacement.

Product Liability Law:
Cases involving defective products demand evidence of foreseeability and internal company awareness. Stratejic Relationships uncovers engineers, quality control staff, and insiders who can speak to product design, manufacturing defects, and safety warnings.

Consumer Class Actions:
Successful class actions rely on finding genuine class representatives and corroborating widespread harm. Stratejic assists in identifying and contacting affected consumers, former employees, and others who can establish patterns of misconduct and ensure settlement checks reach the right people.

Antitrust and Price-Fixing:
When companies are victims of price-fixing or anti-competitive practices, internal witnesses and market insiders become key. Stratejic helps plaintiffs locate individuals who understand the industry and can explain how pricing schemes were orchestrated.
