The Investigative Team at CountyCoverUp.com

We have had numerous people ask questions about where we get our information from and about who the team is that does our investigative work here at CountyCoverUp.com. We are honored to introduce you to Upper Valley Investigative Services and The Integrity Project.

The Integrity Project was formed in 2015 to offer assistance and advocacy for those who were being “victimized” by a corrupt system. Since its inception, they have taken on 14 cases and have won all cases either with a jury decision or with officials finally doing the right thing. Upper Valley Investigative Services is a member of The Integrity Project.
