Domestic investigations not only involve family but those hired to provide services. House cleaning and yard services are generally hired from outside the family. Under the banner of domestic investigations, background checks on yard, garden and pool maintenance and those who are nannies, baby sitters and house cleaning are becoming more common. Not only is personal property at risk of theft or intentional damage but increasingly children, the elderly and other family members are at risk and subject to exploitation and injury. Though far from a guarantee a background check of potential domestic employees provides a further element contributing to peace of mind.
Elder Abuse & Missing Persons Investigations
As the population of the United States ages there are more reported incidents of abuse of exploitation of the elderly. Physical ailments like Alzheimer’s and dementia leave some very vulnerable. Private investigators can act where criminal justice agencies are hampered by law, policy and procedures. None of us wants our elderly family members to become an abuse or exploitation statistic. Investigations of care givers, home or institutional can be conducted if concerns arise. Missing elderly calls for immediate action on missing persons cases, where law enforcement may have limitations prior to a 24-hour time lapse. The advantage of a private investigator is that they are hired to obtain results, not wait for a series of circumstance or time frames before validating a search. Those that wander are very susceptible to injury, abuse, or exploitation. Many of these are on medications demanding critical administration as to time and amount. The longer they are missing the more likely the chance of a tragedy occurring. Most police agencies will initiate a search under these circumstances. Missing persons, whether young old or in between can be accomplished by a PI not subject to the burdensome limitations and scarce resource that plague public authorities.
What a Private Investigator Can Do to Help Drug Addicts
Chemical abuse is a fact of life and affects many families. Many of us have a family member that has gone astray and suffers from alcohol or other chemical dependencies. Unfortunately, these loved ones will resort to petty theft and other crimes to support their habit. Building a case and being caught is usually the first step to assisting these individuals in getting help. Arrest is a sobering fact, that will in some cases drive home that their actions have repercussions. Investigations into theft, missing items and other indicators can be conducted by private investigators. Another avenue is to have associates of the individual checked so some informed action may be implemented.
Undercover & Surveillance Operations
Of course, the unfaithful spouse, spousal abuse and other domestic situations would fall under the purview of the private investigator. Undercover and surveillance operations can reveal some unexpected behavior and compromising actions of our family members.
