More Questions

Other Common Questions

Pricing & Process

How much do investigation services cost?

Pricing varies based on the type of investigation, complexity, and time required. We provide transparent estimates during the initial consultation and ensure you understand all costs before work begins. Some cases are billed hourly, while others may have flat-rate options.

How long does an investigation typically take?

Timeline depends on the investigation type and objectives. Simple background checks may take days, while complex surveillance or locate cases can take weeks. We'll provide a realistic timeline during consultation and keep you updated throughout the process.

Do I need to pay a retainer upfront?

Surveillance and corporate investigations typically require an upfront retainer before work begins. Background checks and other flat-rate services are paid in full at the time of the request. We'll explain all payment expectations clearly during your consultation so there are no surprises.

How will I receive updates on my case?

We provide regular updates through your preferred communication method — phone, email, or text. For active surveillance cases, you'll typically receive a same-day summary. You'll never be left in the dark about the status of your case.

Privacy & Legal

Is everything I tell you confidential?

Yes, absolutely. Client confidentiality is fundamental to our practice. All communications, case details, and findings are kept strictly confidential and protected. We will never disclose your identity or case information to third parties without your explicit consent.

Is hiring a private investigator legal?

Yes. Hiring a licensed private investigator is completely legal. We are licensed by the State of Michigan and conduct all investigations within the bounds of the law. We'll never use illegal methods, and we'll be upfront about what we can and cannot do for your case.

Will the evidence hold up in court?

All investigations are conducted lawfully, and evidence is documented to meet legal standards. Reports are thorough, timestamped, and designed to withstand scrutiny in legal proceedings. We can also provide expert testimony if needed.

Will the person I'm investigating find out?

Discretion is a core part of how we operate. Our investigators are trained in covert surveillance techniques and take every precaution to avoid detection. If at any point we believe an operation may be compromised, we pull back and reassess rather than risk exposure.

Getting Started

What information do I need to provide?

The more information you can provide, the more effective the investigation. Helpful details include the subject's full name, address, vehicle information, daily routine, and any relevant context about your situation. Don't worry if you don't have everything — we'll work with what you have and go from there.

Can you guarantee results?

We guarantee professionalism, thoroughness, and honest reporting — but no ethical investigator can guarantee a specific outcome. Investigations depend on many variables outside our control. What we can promise is that we'll give your case our full effort and provide you with an accurate picture of what we find, even if it's not what you expected.

How do I get started?

Contact us for a free, confidential consultation. We'll discuss your situation, explain how we can help, and provide an honest assessment of whether investigation services are appropriate for your needs. No obligation to proceed.
