An Atlanta Private Investigator can help you in many situations where the police may find that their hands are tied. The Police have certain procedures and protocols that they must follow but an Atlanta Private Investigation will only be representing you and your best interests.

A good example of this is in a missing person’s case. Let’s say that your wife calls you like clockwork every day at 5:00 on the dot to tell you that she is on her way home. It is now 7:00 and there has been no call and she will not pick up her cell phone. You know that there is something wrong but the police can not call a person missing until they have been gone for 24 hours in most cases. If you were to hire an Atlanta Private Investigator to start the search, they would have a much better chance of picking up the trail than if they had to wait a full day to start looking.

Divorce and child custody are the most popular reason to hire an Atlanta Private Investigation firm. Let’s say that you are having trouble with your spouse and believe that they may be cheating on you. How do you find out? You obviously can’t just ask them and you may not have the heart to follow them around to see what they are doing. An Atlanta Private Investigator can discretely watch and gather data. If they are not cheating, then they will never have to know that you had doubts. If they are cheating and it leads to divorce then the PI’s evidence will come in very handy when you are trying to prove your case in court.

Divorce is a messy business and it is especially so when children are involved. Sometimes the wrong person gets custody because of a mistake in court and the other parent will often have no recourse. If the parent with custody decides to violate the courts orders and leave the state or the country, the court does not have the resources to track them down. That is when you will need to start searching for Private Detectives Atlanta. They can track down the parent and child to provide a detailed location for the courts. If the parent is not longer a suitable guardian for the child and is putting the child in danger then the PI can also gather the evidence needed to remove the child from their custody. If you are having any of these problems then you should get in touch with Silent Partner PI, they be glad to help you.

How to hire a Private Investigator:

  • You are a store owner and either your employees or customers are stealing you blind but you can’t afford to hire security personnel full time. You can hire a Atlanta PI to watch over your merchandise and the cost of hiring them will be offset by the amount your save from a decrease in theft.
  • Some one has managed to steal funds from your corporation but the thief was computer savvy and covered his tracks by deleting files and crashing hard drives. An Alpharetta PI trained in computer forensics can still recover data from a crashed hard drive in most cases and once that it done they can trace file usage and network access back to the perpetrator.
  •  

There are many other situations that you may need the help of an experienced PI but the above should give you a broad idea of how to apply their skills.

When looking for an experienced Georgia PI, try to find retired police or military police officers. They will have the training needed to testify in court, take clear notes and are usually fully licensed for the job at hand, including carrying a firearm when needed. Atlanta PI specialize in a specific service so you will want to find out what that is in the beginning.

When you interview the private investigator, there are a few questions that you should always ask:

  • How many cases like mine have you done and what was the outcome?
  • How long have you been a PI and what were you before?
  • Do you have a license for the state in which we will be working in?
  • Are you fully insured and bonded?
  • Will you be handling my case or will it be handed off to another investigator?
  • Will you be able to insure my confidentiality and how will you do that?
  • How much will this cost me?

 

Once you have found a Georgia Private Investigator  that you can trust be prepared to tell the PI everything about the situation. Do not hold anything back or it can make it impossible for them to do their jobs. If you are straight up with them then they will most likely bring you back the results that you are looking for.
