| Why do I need to hire a
private investigator? |
| A private investigator is
hired for the purpose of obtaining legal
or personal evidence/information. Would you hire a Barber to perform heart
surgery? Or would you hire a mechanic to
get legal advice ? |
| |
| How much does it cost for
a private investigator and will I need money up
front? |
| Our prices vary according
to the type, duration, location and
complexity of the investigation. Yes, a
retainer is required on all
investigations. We conduct the
investigation and bill against the
retainer. Any funds from the retainer
that are not utilized during the
investigation are reimbursed to the
client. We have yet to conduct two
investigations exactly the same;
however, each and every case is
conducted accordingly! |
| |
| What type of evidence is
obtained during the investigation? |
| Again, this depends on
your case and what it is that you are
looking for or wanting to find out.
There are several types of evidence that
we can provide for our clients that are
as follows: video evidence, still photos
(from the video footage), photographs,
criminal and civil records, assets and
legal documents, valid addresses (when
asked to locate individuals) etc…Because we are a full service
private investigation company we are very
flexible and will work with our clients
to get them exactly what type of
evidence that they need. |
| |
| Are your services
confidential? Will my spouse or lover
find out that I hired a private
investigator to follow
them? |
| Our
private investigator services are
completely confidential! When you call
the office you will speak with an
investigator that is going to look out
for you, the client. During the
investigation if it seems that the
subject is suspicious in any way we will
contact our client (YOU) and discuss and
access the situation. At no time will
the investigator ever reveal his/her
agenda to the subject. That is our
guarantee! One important element that makes a
professional private investigator is
confidentiality, you have come to the
right company! |
| |
| How often do your
investigators catch cheating spouses
during surveillance efforts? |
| We have had a very high
success rate when working these types of
cases. 8 times out of 10 if you have
that gut feeling that your spouse or
lover is cheating, you are usually
right. There is something to be said for
those guts feelings! If we don't catch
your spouse or lover cheating then you
can have peace of mind that you know the
truth! Refer to our top 10 signs of a
cheating spouse on the domestic page. |
| |
| What type of information
do I need to provide to initiate an
investigation? |
| We ask that you provide
us with a photograph and description of
the subject that will be under
surveillance. Any information that you
can provide for us regarding where the
subject will be, what their address is,
what type of vehicle they are driving,
height and weight of the subject,
information about who you think they may
be cheating with, etc… will help us
get you optimal results without all of
the guess work. This in turn will save
you money. If we are conducting research
for you (locating a person or doing a
criminal background check) then it is
extremely useful to have their social
security number, date of birth, full
name and past or present addresses.
Pictures are worth a thousand words
(or $1000 bucks in this case)! |
| |
| How does the subject not
know that they are under surveillance
and being followed? |
| Our investigators are
highly trained and very good at what
they do. When our investigators follow a
subject they use vehicles that blend in
with other vehicles in the area. Our
time-tested techniques during a pursuit
are hands down the best in the field. It
is a requirement that our investigators
have “blacked out” windows on their
vehicles so that they will not be
detected when obtaining film for our
clients. Also, the “blacked out”
windows are impossible for people to see
through; therefore, our investigator can
conduct surveillance at a location for
hours without anyone knowing that they
are in their vehicle. |
| |
| Do your investigators
ever lose the subjects when you are
following them during an investigation? |
| Again, our investigators
are very good at what they do. There is
an “art” to following a subject
without them knowing it. It is important
for the investigator to remain at a safe
enough distance behind the individual
(so that the subject does not know that
they are being followed) however, they
have to make sure that they don't lose
the subject at a stop light or in
traffic. Sometimes things happen that we
can't control and our subject is lost.
If that happens we will be completely
honest with you the client and will
discuss ways with you to continue the
investigation successfully. Please let us know if you have ever
threatened your significant other to
hire a private investigator because that can cause the
subject to be extremely suspicious and
careful. |
| |
| Can Intervention
Investigations guarantee that they will
get results? |
| We can never guarantee
that we will get results for several
reasons; the spouse or loved one in
question may actually not be cheating,
they may be cheating behind closed doors
out of the investigators view, they may
be giving the spouse/client false
information about where they will be
causing our investigator to be in the
wrong place at the wrong time, etc…
One thing we can guarantee is that you
will get excellent service from
excellent, well-trained, knowledgeable
investigators that will put every effort
into obtaining results for you the
client. We make sure that our private investigators
are the best in the field and will not
employ inexperienced or unskilled
private investigators. |
| |
| How do I know that I will
get back my retainer money if it is not
utilized during the investigation? |
| Our company is licensed and
regulated by the Texas Private Security
Bureau, License # A-10881. We value our
good standing with the state board and
would not do anything to jeopardize our
reputation with state agencies or our
clients (whether it be individuals or
companies). If we owe our client a
refund regarding their retainer than we
guarantee that it will be paid back to
our clients in a timely, confidential
and convenient manner. We also guarantee that we will only
bill our client for actual time spent
during the investigation. Some companies
“pad” their billing which is not
only unethical but also dishonest and
downright wrong. |
