WHY SHOULD I HIRE A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR?
Are you looking for a missing loved one?
Trying
to find an old friend? A Private Investigator can accomplish this and more. By using your
information, a Private Investigator can locate names, addresses, phone numbers and more
through any number of resources, providing you with relevant information.
Having domestic problems?
Concerned about your spouse's or
partner’s late night activities? A Private Investigator who is trained in surveillance
techniques can provide you a detailed and accurate account of the person’s activity.
Photograph and video evidence can usually be obtained. However, in all instances a
detailed report will be provided.
A pre-employment
investigation can give you an advantage and save time, money, and bad publicity.
By investigating a
prospective employee, you can determine if their credentials are authentic and match with what they are
claiming. A background search will also determine if the potential employee has required
training, licensing and experience in the required fields to reduce the total cost of training later and
possible employee and equipment costs. Additionally, a
pre-employment investigation can reveal careless driving habits, possible
criminal history, or other
undesirable information about a potential employee. This can reduce the chance
of inflated insurance costs,
employee pilfering, and other problems that can lead to higher expenditures.
Most states require
employers to show clear and just cause prior to the dismissal of any employee.
By documenting improper
actions and employee behavior you may reduce or eliminate the possibility of a wrongful discharge
lawsuit after the dismissal of an employee. Unless you are very familiar
with private investigation work, you could be putting yourself in grave danger if you try to do your
own private investigation. You are most likely not trained or experienced in the art of surveillance
or counter-surveillance and are therefore more likely to blow your cover early in the investigation.
This exposure could very well lead to greater danger for you when the subject you are trying to
follow realizes your presence, especially if the person has criminal experience or something
valuable to lose. It is far more sensible for
you to hire the services of a private investigator who has been specially-trained in the art of
undercover and surveillance work. An experienced private investigator is in a
position and has sufficient
resources to reduce the risks of detection throughout the whole investigation process –
something that will be nearly impossible for you to achieve. Investigation work is not
merely about asking a lot of questions – although interviewing is a very important skill. More
important is the manner in which the investigator asks those questions –
making use of probing techniques or
asking open-ended questions which will provide leads and answers.
