cm strategies was built for clients who expect more.

A premiere private investigations company founded in 2026 by Seth Carelli, Truman Carelli, and Brandon Mignard, professionals with backgrounds in federal investigations, intelligence analysis, and private sector consulting, CM Strategies provides clients with clear insight into complicated problems. Our work sits at the intersection of investigations, strategy, and influence—helping attorneys, organizations, and individuals uncover critical facts, understand risk, and navigate difficult circumstances.

A Boutique Firm by Design

CM Strategies was built intentionally as a boutique private investigative firm. Rather than operating as a high-volume agency, we maintain a focused practice so we can provide a more personalized and attentive experience for every client. Each matter receives direct involvement from the owners of the firm. Our clients work with professionals who understand the nuances of their case, communicate clearly, and remain accessible throughout the investigative process.

What We Do

CM Strategies is based in Nashville, TN and supports law firms, organizations, and private clients with a range of investigative and advisory services, including:

• Complex investigations
 • Litigation support and case development
 • Intelligence gathering and analysis
 • Strategic consulting for sensitive matters
 • Reputation and risk assessment
 • Media and public narrative advisory

Our team brings experience working alongside attorneys, investigators, journalists, and security professionals. This multidisciplinary perspective allows us to approach problems from multiple angles and deliver deeper, more meaningful insight.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple:

To deliver precise investigations, trusted insight, and strategic clarity for clients who expect more.
