It’s a new year and maybe you need to take charge of a certain situation in your life that a Private Investigator can help with. By offering a range of services to assist individuals and businesses in uncovering information or solving various types of problems, Investigative companies can help when you’re not sure where to turn. Here are some typical services offered by private detective agencies:

Surveillance

Providing video and still photo evidence for workers’ compensation fraud, insurance fraud, unemployment fraud, child custody, infidelity, cohabitation, theft of time, drinking on the job, residency requirements and more.

Background Checks

Effective ways for employers, landlords, potential business partners, etc. to learn about their potential new hires, residents or business partners.

Infidelity Investigations

Missing Persons

Locating individuals who are missing or have disappeared.

Corporate Investigations

Always communicate openly with the investigator about your expectations, and make sure you have a clear understanding of the costs involved. Keep in mind that not all investigations lead to the desired outcome, and results can vary based on the circumstances and available information.
