Our private investigative services are immediately available to assist attorneys, businesses and the public with a variety of legal, financial and personal problems.

Our investigators will use many means to determine the facts in a variety of matters. To carry out investigations, we may use various types of surveillance or searches. To verify facts, such as an individual's place of employment or income, we may make phone calls or visit a subjects workplace. In other cases, especially those involving missing persons and background checks, our investigators often interview people to gather as much information as possible about an individual.

The duties of our investigators depend on the needs of our clients. In cases for employers involving workers' fraudulent compensation claims, for example, our investigators may carry out long term covert observation of subjects. If an investigator observes a subject performing an activity that contradicts injuries stated in a workers compensation claim, the investigator would take video or still photographs to document the activity and report it to the client. We will provide our clients with still photograph, video recordings, if made, and a finished written report which details the activity and times we were on the assignment. Important decisions require accurate information. We have staff that can tackle just about any investigative need, quickly and discreetly.

Whether consulting Wall Street Journal before investing in a mutual fund or reviewing the Kelly Blue Book before buying a new car, it is always important to get information to minimize the risk. We help our clients by providing information so they can make good decisions. Whether conducting a high level employee background investigation or researching the litigation history of a prospective business partner, we can help make the decision an educated one.
