At Courtside, we believe in the power of comprehensive support—strategically delivered through our three distinct yet connected entities: Courtside Legal Investigators, Courtside Advocacy, and DADurday Legacy. Whether you’re an attorney seeking reliable legal investigative services, an individual in need of compassionate advocacy, or a father working to strengthen your family and future, we offer tailored solutions to meet your goals.

Courtside Legal Investigators

Founded by former judicial professional Sean Burke, Courtside Legal Investigators has been a trusted ally to the legal community since 1992. With over 15,000 cases successfully completed, we have developed a proven track record of delivering accurate, confidential, and court-admissible information.


Our team consists of licensed private investigators, including seasoned professionals from law enforcement and the court community. We utilize our proprietary Scientific Method of Investigations—a rigorous, systematic approach that ensures every investigation is conducted efficiently, thoroughly, and in full compliance with legal standards.


Whether supporting attorneys or pro se litigants, our goal is to provide clear, reliable evidence that strengthens legal strategies and drives favorable outcomes in the courtroom.

We focus on the person behind the problem, offering holistic assistance that bridges the gap between legal strategy and real-life resilience.


DADurday Legacy

As our nonprofit arm, DADurday Legacy is devoted to empowering fathers through mentorship, education, and community-based initiatives. We believe strong fathers help build strong families, and we’re committed to equipping men with the tools they need to be present, positive, and purposeful. From fatherhood workshops to leadership development and family engagement programs, DADurday helps men rise to their full potential and become pillars in their communities.
