The scale and location of the investigation will dictate the surveillance fees; larger jobs may also require more than one investigator, which will depend on the requirements of the client and the case.
In most cases the fees will begin from £45-75 per hour. To conduct a complete and thorough investigation, a minimum of 4-6 hours is usually required to gather sufficient evidence. This does not take into account the planning that takes place before the surveillance operation begins.
Included within that price will be a detailed written report along with any video or photographic images related to the case. This will serve as confirmation that the investigation has been carried out in full within the boundaries of the law to produce a final outcome.
The ease with which missing persons can be located will depend on a number of different factors. Re-establishing contact with someone you have not seen or spoken to in a while is often easier to achieve, thus producing a lower cost. For anyone who has disappeared and purposely does not want to be found, this can be a lengthier process and a more expensive procedure.
The price will also depend on the location of the person you are trying to find. Costs are lower for tracing someone in the UK, while most costs are incurred for locating people who have travelled abroad.
The demand for thorough professional background checks is growing year by year, with businesses and individuals ensuring they do not work with companies or staff who might pose potential issues at a later date.
The cost of conducting a standard background check on a company typically starts at £200. This would include asset tracing checks, although for more detailed investigations the cost would generally be higher.
As with many services provided by a private investigator the pricing level will depend on a number of factors such as the type of background checks required, travel, the length of time take and how much detail is required.
The use of modern technology enables a private investigator to find clear and transparent evidence, and the type of device used will depend on the nature of the investigation. There are two categories for GPS tracking: Historical, which ranges between £200-£300 and live tracking, which can be anywhere between £500-750.
This is a rough guideline for the other types of investigation a private investigator can conduct. Each service has a range of different factors to take into account which means the fee will vary.
There are a whole host of services that can be carried out by a private investigator and this includes: Investigating Insurance Fraud, Electronic Surveillance, Absent Employees, Professional Witness In Court, Hiring Of Advanced Electronic Equipment, Patent & Copyright Infringement, Attending Court, Detailed Due Diligence Report and much more.
In most cases the hourly rate attached to this type of investigation is between £55-£95, although there are other considerations to take into account which will add to the overall price.
