Surveillance

Surveillance is defined as conducting close observations of an individual or a group.

Service of process is necessary for many reasons, but the primary reason is to make sure that the due process of law is upheld in the United States. An additional reason process servers are an essential part of civil society is to ensure that legal papers are served in a highly effective and appropriate fashion. If papers aren’t served properly, the court is not able to rule on a case relating to an individual if they were not legally made aware of it. If service is determined to be improper, the entire case may be thrown out.

AOE /COE

An AOE/COE (Arising Out of Employment / Course of Employment) investigation is a workers’ compensation investigation to determine the facts surrounding an alleged injury to a worker on the job. The purpose of the investigation is to establish whether the employee’s alleged injury was work-related and happened in the course and scope of employment, or whether the injury was non-industrial or affected by third parties.

Why hire a Private investigator?

Insurance fraud happens when an act is committed with the intent to obtain a benefit in which a person is not otherwise entitled. False insurance claims are filed with the intent to defraud an insurance provider and they cost billions of dollars each year. Insurance fraud claims range from stretching the truth to committing intentional damages or injury. Private investigators can help identify the truth. We photograph those suffering from leg injuries playing basketball, and so on. In some cases, investigators may even photograph a living person, who is supposed to be deceased!

If you suspect your spouse is cheating or hiding important information or assets from you, may want to hire a private investigator. There are ways to tell if your spouse is hiding assets and a reputable private investigator can access records such as bank accounts you don’t know about or follow a spouse who has become distant to see if he or she is cheating. Before you hire someone, remember that a private investigator can help your attorney uncover evidence, if and when needed.

Private investigators are required to be licensed in most states, and are vigorously tested in order to be issued a license. Even at the real risk of putting a potential client off, they must be prepared to keep their clients well informed. Some examples are in the tape recording of others, the Gramm, Leach, Bliley Act (Privacy Laws) and the Federal Polygraph Protection Act (1988). All investigators have a responsibility to inform any potential or current client if they appear to be headed in the wrong (and illegal) direction. The recent sensational trial and incarceration of Anthony Pellicano, once known as the "P.I. to the stars" should be all that is needed to guide the investigator and client alike that violating even the spirit of the law is something not to be taken lightly.
