Investigation Websites

It can be fun and entertaining to surf the net and explore the huge amount of private investigation and security websites. It’s a good way to become familiar with the many services offered by investigators. One thing that makes me turn my head away, is when an agency purports to “ do all”
When an agency lists 12 or 15 “ specialties” I began to have some serious doubts of their competence in all fields. Naturally, there are exceptions, notably when it is a very large investigation agency that has a sizable in house staffing. One example of a well known, international private investigation agency is http://www.kroll.com/ If you have the need for a well established agency, particularly for business needs, check out Kroll. Another example is http://www.investigation.com/ and http://www.diversifiedriskmanagement.com/
The reality for most investigative websites is the agency advertises all specialties, then simply sub contracts out the assignment, taking a little portion of the fee. http://www.factfind.com/ Remember, that vast majority of private investigation agencies in the United States or one or two firms.
Have the need for a pre employment background, took a look at http://www.usis.com/ USIS has done a lot of work providing secret clearance backgrounds for the government. Always deal with a background screening company that is FCRA compliant. We will discuss this federal law in later posts, but let it be know that it is very important that you contract with a pre employment screening company that expressly sates they follow all FCRA requirements. Liability can easily fall on your business shoulders if there is a background miss managed.
