Kurtis Stenderup — Founder & Lead Investigator

With decades of law enforcement experience, Kurtis Stenderup founded Hat Creek Solutions to give Northern California attorneys the investigative depth and technical expertise their cases demand. He specializes in digital forensics, cell site analysis, Title IX investigations, and workplace investigations. Bringing the same methodical, evidence-first approach to every engagement.

Kurtis understands that uncovering the truth is only half the job. The other half is making that truth usable in court. He delivers clear, defensible reports, explains complex findings in terms judges and juries understand, and provides calm, credible expert testimony that holds up under cross-examination.

What his clients value most is his ability to work as a true extension of the legal team — responsive under tight deadlines, thorough when details matter, and deeply committed to documentation that meets evidentiary standards.

When you work with Kurtis, you're not just hiring an investigator. You're gaining a partner who knows what attorneys need and delivers findings you can stand on at every stage of litigation.
