Frequently Asked Questions
I've never hired a private investigator before. How does this work?
After a brief telephone conversation, we'll meet with you at a time and place of your choosing to discuss your case. We'll review the general situation and the desired results, collect the necessary information from you, then formulate a course of action that meets your needs. We'll sign a contract and begin work on your case. You'll be updated daily or weekly as you choose, and when the case is concluded you will receive a final report upon payment of the invoice.

Can you guarantee results?
The only thing we can guarantee is good customer service and solid investigative work. Sometimes the record doesn't exist, the suspected fraud isn't, the thieving employee doesn't, or the witness refuses to give a statement. There are too many factors beyond our control to guarantee results, but we will do everything possible within the law.

How much will this cost?
For listed flat rate services, only that fee with no additional costs. For all other investigations, there is a minimum charge of four hours of investigative services plus additional expenses as necessary. See our Fee Schedule for details.

How will I know the outcome?
In any way you wish. We can update you daily by phone or email, and your final report can be verbal, text file or PDF, or a hard copy. We will usually have the report to you within 24 hours of completing work on your case. More complex cases may require more time to complete the report.
