When You Need Facts, Not Guesswork
People call a private investigator when something important is uncertain: a person who cannot be found, a business partner whose story does not add up, a threat that needs to be taken seriously, or a legal matter that depends on evidence. Strategic Investigations and Security puts experienced investigators on those questions and works them until there are answers.
Our investigators are active and retired law enforcement professionals. They know how to gather information lawfully, document it so it holds up, and present it in a report you can act on, whether you are an individual, a family, a company or a law firm.

Why Hire a Professional Instead of Searching Yourself
Lawfully gathered evidence
Evidence that is collected improperly can be useless, or create problems for you. Our investigators work within the law so what we find can be used.
Access and experience
Investigative databases, records research and field work, combined with law enforcement experience, reach information that online searches do not.
Distance from the situation
When a case is personal, an investigator brings objectivity and keeps you out of risky confrontations.
