Private Investigator Information for the Public
Hiring a private investigator can be a confusing and daunting experience. You obviously have a great need for help with a particular matter, but you are not sure the best way to go about achieving your objective. This is normal, so relax. Professional investigators are experts in sorting out all types of situations and providing intelligence gathering for civil and criminal matters.
We always advise potential clients to shop around and interview several investigators, before making their choice. This way, they can compare and contrast services, demeanor and fees, to get the best value for their hard-earned dollar. It is important that your investigator meets licensure and bonding requirements in your area, so be sure to inquire about these crucial details before signing a contract with anyone.
If you still have a difficult time locating the best investigator for your case, consider contacting a private investigation association for a referral.
Private Investigator Information for Detective Trainees
Would-be professional investigators often do not know where to begin when planning a career in private detective work. They often have questions about investigator training and the schools which provide the best quality education for the money. Additionally, they are often confused about private investigator licensing requirements and how they can actually make the leap into working as a detective.
Some interested parties have prior military or police experience and easily integrate into private sector work. However, other people come from a diversity of backgrounds and do not know how to get started in a P.I. job.
We hope that the resources on this website will provide answers to many of these questions and will help to build the next generation of quality professional investigators.
