A private investigator (PI) is a professional who is hired to carry out investigative and surveillance work for individuals, corporations, or government agencies. PIs typically have a background in law enforcement, military service, or intelligence gathering. They are skilled in research, information gathering, and analysis, and they use their expertise to assist clients in gathering evidence to support their cases.

It is the nature of the private investigator to offer discreet services. I don't know anyone that does not uphold the integrity of confidentiality. Of course, there are bad apples in every bunch. However, it is our legal obligation to keep our clients strictly confidential. In fact, we've been asked many times by law enforcement who our client is, what we are watching, who we are investigating and we refuse to answer these questions successfully.

Private investigators offer a wide range of services, including but not limited to: background checks, surveillance, locating missing persons, investigations into fraud or white-collar crime, and providing evidence for court cases. They may also offer services such as security consulting, risk assessments, and executive protection.

We welcome everyone who respects that a profession honed from decades of experience and education is not replaced by a website publicly available on the Internet. We don't work for clients with no means of payment, we are not a charity. We don't work for clients that can't afford us.

We work for clients with reasonable budgets, legal reasons for hiring us, and whom are responsible and trustworthy as we may provide confidential information that must be upheld to a high standard.
