Our Mission

At Doyenne Investigative Services, we believe that facts win cases - but only when they are uncovered with precision, documented with integrity, and delivered in a way that stands up in court.  We provide litigation support and investigative services with the insight of someone who has spent decades inside the courtroom, preparing cases from the ground up. 

Meet the Founder

Shawnte Kinney, Licensed Private Investigator/Civil Litigation Paralegal/Trial Specialist

For over 25+ years, I have been immersed in the world of civil litigation, serving as paralegal and trial specialist for lawsuits handling high-stakes, complex cases. I have gathered evidence, traced assets, located witnesses, interviewed witnesses, reviewed transcripts, and prepared attorneys for trial- always with an eye on what it takes to win in court.

Our Approach

At Doyenne Investigative Services, we take a client-centered approach to our investigations. We work closely with our clients to understand their needs and develop a customized plan to achieve their goals. We believe in open communication and transparency throughout the entire investigative process.


Today, as the founder and lead investigator of Doyenne Investigative Services, I bring that same meticulous, courtroom-tested approach to every investigation. 

A Career Built on Legal Precision

Over two decades, I have:


  • Collected and organized court-admissible evidence for civil matters 


  • Interviewed and located witnesses critical to case outcomes 


  • Conducted asset searches and judgment enforcement investigations


  • Built timelines, players' lists, and fact patterns for trial 


  • Reviewed and summarized witness statements, depositions, and trial testimony 


  • Assisted attorneys in the courtroom with exhibits, trial strategy, and trial preparation


This foundation means I know exactly what attorneys need - and more importantly, how to deliver it in a way that strengthens their legal position.
