Straight answers about how IEIS works.
A licensed PI can research public records, locate people, interview witnesses, document scenes, and conduct lawful surveillance in public places. A PI cannot:
IEIS works strictly within the law, so the facts we find can be trusted and used.
Yes. Your identity, your matter, and our findings are shared only with you or people you authorize, unless the law requires otherwise.
Most cases are billed hourly against a retainer, and some defined tasks can be done for a flat fee. You'll get a clear written estimate and agreement before any work begins, with no surprise charges.
It depends on the work. Simple records research may take a few days, while surveillance or complex investigations can take weeks. We'll give you a realistic timeline up front and keep you updated.

Reports are written to be clear, factual, and well documented, with proper chain of custody for evidence. Whether something is admitted is up to the court and your attorney, and the investigator is available to testify when needed.
