A Miami Private Investigative service will gather evidence that will either confirm or eliminate your suspicions.
Locating People
Miami Private investigators locate people for a variety of reasons: Adoptees, birth parents, relatives, former friends, lovers, spouses, co-workers and employers can benefit from reuniting with a person from their past. Miami Private investigators access databases, interview acquaintances and piece together clues to track down people with whom you’ve lost contact. They can use public records to fill in missing information and uncover a new name, address, telephone number and social security number.
Pre-employment Screening
Companies need employment background checks on job applicants. A company may need to check applicants driving histories with the Department of Motor Vehicles. Perhaps a corporation is filling a top management position and wants to evaluate the profile of a candidate that goes far beyond what’s on the resume. Interviews with references and other informational searches can provide that. Or parents may decide to hire a nanny. A Miami Private Investigator can check the prospective caregiver’s personal and criminal history, as well as her references.
Prospective Business Partner & Investments
Before investing your money or time in a new company or other financial deal you should hire a Miami Private Investigator. A company may appear perfectly legitimate, with a fancy office, a pleasant receptionist and a readily available list of previous client referrals. But it could be a sophisticated scam. A Miami Private Investigator can perform background checks to check public records for licensing, small claim judgments, bankruptcies, state and federal tax liens, and other judgments or defaults.
Security Consultations & Risk Management
Some Miami Private Investigators perform Corporate Security Consulting & Risk Management . A business may need to secure premises, property, assets, people or even information. Some companies may need only a nighttime security guard or an alarm system. But others need electronic surveillance, a loss-prevention staff and strict computer security. Experienced Miami Private Investigators can recommend security services and techniques to prevent theft of inventory or to provide for employee safety.
Workers Compensation Claims
Insurance companies estimate that twenty percent of claims are fraudulent. Even a single fraudulent claim can cost a business tens of thousands of dollars. A Miami Private Investigator can look into employee claims to verify their legitimacy. The company benefits in another way as well: It deters future fraud by warning other employees that the company pursues every claim.
Law Enforcement
Top echelon Miami Private Investigators are an integral part of our community’s law enforcement. They work closely with police and the court system on the local, state and federal levels. When securing evidence for use in the judicial process, they assist police, the district attorney’s staff and lawyers. They conduct searches and surveillance, serve subpoenas, take statements and testify in court. They can also assist with unsolved crime and cold cases.
Electronic Surveillance Detection
Planting electronic listening devices is illegal and can result in a felony conviction. Still, we receive at least ten calls a month requesting such a service. If it’s illegal, who’s doing it? In small and large companies the competition can be relentless and the pressure to beat the competition can be ruthless. This can lead to one company bugging the boardroom of another, maybe by bribing an employee to place the hidden monitoring device. While no legitimate Miami Private Investigator will wiretap an office, many will offer “bug sweep” services to remove the problem.
