Real experience.
A distinct perspective.
DCP Investigative Services brings over 50 years of combined law enforcement and investigative experience to clients across Northern Colorado.
Investigators who’ve worked both sides of the case file
Founded by Brad Templeman and Aaron Belk, both retired in good standing from Colorado law enforcement, our agency specializes in criminal case consultation, witness interviews, background investigations, case review and analysis, surveillance, process service, missing persons cases, GPS sweeps, and other investigative services.
Our experience spans investigations from minor incidents to complex, high-level felonies, with direct experience testifying at Municipal, State, and Federal levels.
Fort Collins, Loveland & the Front Range
We serve individuals, attorneys, businesses, and insurance professionals throughout Northern Colorado, including Fort Collins, Loveland, Johnstown, Windsor, Berthoud, Erie, Longmont, Thornton, and Estes Park.
Free consultations are available, with rates based on the scope and complexity of your case. Our team is typically available 9am–7pm by phone or text, with alternative hours available upon request.

Reliable, professional delivery of legal documents throughout Northern Colorado.
Missing Persons Cases
Diligent, experienced efforts to locate individuals across the region.

Detection and sweep services for unauthorized tracking devices.
Other Investigative Services
Every case is unique. If your situation falls outside our core services, there’s a good chance we still have the experience to help.
A deeper look makes a difference
After years investigating and reviewing countless cases, we recognize investigative flaws, inconsistencies, overlooked evidence, and weaknesses that may not be apparent from case files alone.
Our firsthand law enforcement background gives us a clear understanding of how investigations are conducted, how cases are developed, and where important questions may need further examination.

We serve individuals, attorneys, businesses, and insurance professionals throughout Larimer, Weld, Boulder, Adams, and other Northern Colorado counties.

What clients ask us most
