Hiring a PI: What to Look For in a Private Investigator

Hiring a Private Investigator does not need to be a difficult and trying experience.

Verify that the “investigator” is in fact a registered licensed and bonded private investigator in the state of Pennsylvania.

Verify that they will not subcontract or assign work to unlicensed individual which is not what you are paying for. This is commonly done by a number of the “body shop” detective agencies which are basically online businesses subbing work to lesser qualified and unlicensed “investigators.” Many of the top placed search results will be companies that farm out most of their work.

Request their license, bond and professional resume which is important if your need goes to a Pennsylvania or Federal court in PA.

Pennsylvania residents can verify that the investigative company they selected is in fact a licensed and bonded private detective registered in Pennsylvania by contacting the Pennsylvania State Police (PSP)

Call the PSP Private Detective Roster phone number at 717-783-3762.

Additionally you should make sure the private detective you hire is also a Pennsylvania Act 235 agent.
