Making the Right Choice
Before you consider hiring any investigative agency you should first ask a few questions. You should ask questions like:
- Do you hold a valid state investigators license?
- Do you currently hold any certificationsin conducting insurance related investigations?
- How many years of experience do you have?
- What is your area of specialty?
- Do you do this as a full or part time business?
- Where is your office located?
- What areas do you service?
- What are your hourly, mileage and expenditure rates?
- What other costs if any should I expect?
- Do you conduct these investigations or do you use less skilled or inexperience investigators to conduct field surveillance?
"Warning"
Watch out for "sitters." Some surveillance-investigators are known as "sitters." In my experience, most of surveillance persons fall into that category in varying degrees. That is, they get their assignment and then sit on the target location for the specified number of hours and record activity. This method will usually get the occasional "good" video that will appease the uninformed client. Over time, however, a lot of resources and money will have been spent foolishly using these "sitters." A pretext and/or background investigation, coupled with various record checks, should be part of any surveillance-investigation. Surveillance is a percentage game, much like baseball and golf; using certain principles and tendencies will increase the odds.
Assigning The Case
Information should include the full name, address, phone number, date of birth, Social Security number, physical description, vehicles, claimed injury, medical restrictions, hangouts and any possible activities. A photograph or previous surveillance report can be invaluable. Advise if it is a "Rush."
Approximately 29% of our provided addresses are incorrect. When possible, make sure you provide us the most recent address. Sometimes claimants intentionally provide the wrong address to avoid detection. On many occasions, we have learned that a relative's residence is simply serving as a mail drop for the claimant. Checking medical reports, lien documents and forms from the applicant’s attorney may help detect false addresses. We also have several means of determining the current address for claimants and witnesses.
