Frequently asked questions

What services do you offer?

We offer a comprehensive range of investigative services tailored to meet various needs. Our fingerprinting services ensure accurate and secure identity verification for employment, licensing, and background checks. Through surveillance, we provide discreet monitoring to gather critical evidence for cases involving fraud, infidelity, or workplace misconduct. Our background checks cover criminal history, employment verification, and other key areas to ensure trust and compliance. Additionally, our skip tracing services locate individuals for legal, financial, or personal matters, such as debt recovery or finding missing persons. Each service is designed to deliver reliable and actionable information with professionalism and confidentiality.

How much do your service cost?

Our pricing depends on the specific service, complexity, and scope of the investigation. For example, fingerprinting services typically have a flat fee, while surveillance and skip tracing costs may vary based on time, resources, and location. Background checks are customized to your requirements, such as the depth of information needed or additional verifications. We offer transparent pricing and provide detailed estimates after understanding your case. Feel free to contact us for a consultation, and we’ll tailor a solution that fits your needs and budget.

How long will the investigation take?

The timeline for an investigation depends on the type and complexity of the service. Fingerprinting is usually completed on the same day, with results depending on the processing time of the agency or organization receiving them. Surveillance cases vary based on the subject’s activity and the amount of information needed, ranging from a single day to several weeks. Background checks can take anywhere from 1 to 10 business days, depending on the depth of the investigation and the responsiveness of third-party sources. Skip tracing timelines depend on the availability of information and the individual’s circumstances, often ranging from a few days to a couple of weeks. After assessing your specific needs, we’ll provide an estimated timeframe during the initial consultation.

Are your methods legal and ethical?

Yes, absolutely. All our methods are fully compliant with federal, state, and local laws, ensuring that every investigation we conduct is lawful and ethical. We adhere to strict professional standards, respecting privacy rights and maintaining confidentiality throughout the process. Our team is trained to follow legal guidelines, including those set by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) for background checks and other industry-specific regulations. We prioritize integrity and professionalism, ensuring that our clients receive accurate, ethical, and legally obtained information for their cases.

How do you maintain confidentiality?

We take confidentiality very seriously and implement strict protocols to protect your privacy and sensitive information. All client details, case information, and findings are securely stored and accessible only to authorized personnel involved in your case. Our communication channels are encrypted to ensure secure exchanges of information. We operate under professional codes of conduct and comply with all applicable privacy laws, ensuring that your information is never shared with unauthorized parties. You can trust us to handle your case with the utmost discretion and professionalism.

Can I remain anonymous during the investigation?

Yes, you can remain anonymous throughout the investigation. We respect your privacy and can ensure that your identity is not disclosed to any third party or subject of the investigation unless legally required. We work discreetly and tailor our approach to your preferences, keeping your involvement confidential at all times. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss the best methods to maintain your anonymity while achieving your investigative goals.

What information do you need to start?

The information we need depends on the type of investigation. For fingerprinting, we’ll require a government-issued ID and any documentation related to the purpose of the fingerprinting, such as employer or licensing agency requirements. For background checks, we typically need the full name, date of birth, and, if applicable, social security number or known addresses of the subject. Surveillance requires details such as the subject’s name, physical description, habits, and locations they frequent. For skip tracing, any information you can provide—such as the individual’s name, last known address, phone numbers, or associates—will help expedite the process. During our consultation, we’ll guide you on what specific details are needed for your case. The more information you can provide, the faster and more efficient the investigation will be.

How will I receive the results of your investigation?

We deliver investigation results in a secure and professional manner tailored to your preference. Most commonly, we provide a detailed report summarizing our findings, supported by any relevant documents, photos, videos, or other evidence. These results can be shared electronically through secure, encrypted email or via a private online portal. If you prefer, we can also arrange an in-person or phone consultation to discuss the findings. Our priority is to ensure that the results are delivered confidentially, securely, and in a way that meets your needs.

Do you work with attorneys or law enforcement?

Yes, we frequently collaborate with attorneys and law enforcement agencies. For attorneys, we provide services such as litigation support, witness background checks, asset searches, and evidence gathering to assist in building strong legal cases. For law enforcement, we offer investigative support, surveillance, skip tracing, and access to specialized resources that can aid in ongoing investigations. Our team is experienced in working alongside legal and law enforcement professionals, ensuring that our methods and findings are admissible and compliant with legal standards. Whether you're an attorney or law enforcement officer, we can tailor our services to meet your specific needs.

What's your success rate?

Our success rate varies depending on the type and complexity of each case. For instance, in surveillance operations, we achieve positive outcomes in approximately 85% of cases, effectively gathering the necessary evidence. In background checks, our thorough methodologies ensure accurate and comprehensive reports in over 90% of instances. For skip tracing services, we successfully locate individuals in about 80% of cases. Please note that these figures are averages, and individual results may vary based on specific circumstances. We are committed to employing all legal and ethical means to achieve the best possible outcomes for our clients.
