Why Hire a Private Investigator?

We live in some of the most uncertain times in our personal and professional lives.? More companies are operating in limited operating spaces and people are more dissatisfied with their personal lives.? A business owner needs to be concerned with a competitor potentially seeking intellectual property just as much as a spouse may need to know if a partner is being unfaithful.? When businesses or individuals find they need information gathered, hidden truths uncovered, or facts verified, Private Investigators can do so with discretion and confidentiality to reduce risks to companies and allay fears of individuals.

When you make the decision to hire a Private Investigator, understand the Pros and Cons so you are aware of what to expect.

Pros:

1. Expertise and Experience: Private Investigators are trained professionals who have experience conducting various types of investigations.? They are able to conduct surveillance of individuals (or companies), gather evidence, conduct interviews, etc. to help get at the truth of what is happening in an operating environment.

2. Resources: Private Investigators often have access to resources for research and any surveillance requirements.? They also have experience with a variety of technical and physical tools that allow them close up collection of required information for an investigation.

3. Legal Compliance: Private Investigators are trained to understand the legal boundaries of what they are or are not allowed to collect to allow admissibility in any court proceedings that may follow from investigations.

4. Time and Cost Savings: Private Investigators are trained to conduct investigations and have processes and perspectives that help move things along, resulting in time and cost savings.? Without that expertise and going it alone, you could waste time and money that could have been easily handled by an experienced Private Investigator.?

Cons:

1. Cost: Private Investigators are professionals with unique skill sets that have been developed over time, and compensation will reflect that experience.? Investigations can also be very time consuming, requiring surveillance at odd hours of the day/night.? Clients need to consider costs against their aims of hiring a Private Investigator.

2. Potential Emotional Impact: Not every investigation is going to be ‘pretty’ and some of the answers found will be painful.? Clients need to be cognizant of that fact and be ready to hear painful results – a cheating spouse, a favorite employee is stealing from a company, etc.

3. Limited Control: When you hire a Private Investigator, you are handing over control of the process to find the required information.? Clients and Private Investigators need to establish boundaries and good communications processes.
