Why hire a local Private Investigator

A local private investigator is a must when hiring a professional, especially if you’re looking for a professional that has the experience you need to solve your case. With the Internet, many out of state Investigators are advertising in your area as claiming they service Fort Myers. Some out of state investigators are not licensed in Florida, and the few that are may not live in your immediate area. Some of these investigative firms will try to “farm out” – Sub Contract – the work other people at lower rates than what you hired them for. Unfortunately, this can lead down an unfortunate path where these “low cost” investigators drop the case for a higher paying client.

In some case, you hire an investigator that you trusted with your information, that investigator could farm out the case to a 3rd party, who in turn passes it down to a 4th party. Now we have 3 different agencies with your information.

In other, cases these Private Investigators travel 2 to 4 hours to work in your area which cannot guarantee they will be on time. This also means that they may not want to come back to testify once they have your money.

This is why it is important to work with an investigator that works and is based out of your service area request. This becomes important when you need someone to testify for you in court and is well known in the court by Attorneys and Judges etc. A local Private Investigator also knows the area he is working and is more familiar with his surroundings.

If you’re thinking about hiring a local Private Investigator, make sure that the license number is on the first page of their website, it is required by Florida Law. If they do not have it on the site then most likely they are not licensed in Florida and your case and money spent may not be of any value.

Remember any out of State Company, no matter how big they are, is making a profit off other Private Investigators in the area. Only a local Private Investigator who performs work locally is interested in his reputation as he is invested in the local area.

Do your research, check online reviews, request local references from attorneys or businesses. 

When checking reviews, make sure you find them on Google my Business as a Fort Myers Private Investigator. Some investigators fake reviews on their website, modify reviews, or may be false or misleading.
