Experienced Private Investigators

2011-12-09T13:26:00.000-08:00

People have often asked why some private investigators charge more than others. It's actually very simple...the more years of experience an investigator has, the more their services are worth.
Who would you rather have work your case, an individual who is new to the investigations field or one that has 20 years of experience and expertise? The latter of course; but the experienced investigator is going to charge more because he knows how to do the investigation and obtain the results you're counting on!

Legal Searches

2010-04-29T11:43:00.000-07:00

What information is legal to obtain and what isn't?

Due to changes in privacy laws in the last 10 years, the obtaining of certain
information can get you in hot water with the justice system.

For instance, it is now necessary to obtain a court judgment before bank account records
can be legally obtained and the info cannot be obtained through pretext.

Also as of recently, cell phone records can no longer be obtained on another individual legally!

It used to be legal to run a credit report on just about anyone......not anymore! You must have
an individual's authorization to run a credit report for employment or tenant screening.

Also, if you have someone run a search that's illegal, you and the company that ran it can now be
charged with a federal crime!

Bottomline................Know what is legal and not before attempting to obtain any records.

Aaron Investigations & Research knows the legalities of searches and can keep you on the
right side of the law!

Worker's Compenstion Fraud

2010-02-09T13:14:00.000-08:00

Worker's Compensation Fraud is on the rise! From service trades to business professionals, the number of claims is steadily rising through out the U.S.

It appears that when the unemployment rate increases and the economy goes sour, worker's compensation claims increase also.

Many claims are legitimate. Many claims are not. And many claims start out with a legitimate injury, but upon being cured, individuals decide they don't want to go back to work and attempt to obtain ongoing benefits to remain unemployed.

The combination of good, legitimate doctors who are willing to substantiate to the insurance companies that the patient is cured and investigators providing video surveillance footage showing the patient capable of performing their previous work duties appears to be the only way to stop this fraud.

If you have an employee on Worker's Compensation that you believe to be "milking the system" and would like to prove their fraudulent acts, call Aaron Investigations & Research at
(877) 754-3518 or go to www.aaroninvestigations.com

Over celeberating on New Year's Eve

2009-12-30T09:16:00.000-08:00

Having a pre-arranged plan to get home after celebrating

As the current year winds down and people are preparing for a new years eve celebration, many forget to arrange for transportation to get home if they've celebrated in excess.

Statistics show that most people hurt or killed on the roads during the holiday season are a result of being hit by a drunk driver. Most of those injured or killed are innocent victims that had no alcohol in their systems.

There are numerous arrangements that can be made ahead of time for after hours party-goers to get home safely.
- Have a designated driver that has not drank alcohol do the driving.
- Use the transsportation companies that offer rides around the holidays for free.
- Stay at the residence or party location until the next day to avoid needing
transportation.
- Don't drink.

We wish to extend to everyone, a happy and safe New Year!

One of the latest social networking phenomena in the U.S. is known as Sexting.
Sexting is the texting (usually done by teenagers) of partially clad or nude photos

Not only can this be considered a means for illicit sexual exploitation, but many times

Criminal Records

2009-10-22T13:26:00.000-07:00

What's involved in a criminal record search?

Oftentimes, clients call us requesting a criminal record search on an individual. Reasons can be for employment, child care or custody, a pre-marital investigation, etc.

Before a criminal record search can be conducted, the individual must be identified with name, date of birth or age, a current or former address, etc.

Once the subject has been identified, electronic means are used to find out where the individual resided over the past 7-10 years and the cities, counties or states are searched for records.

For further information on having a criminal record search conducted, please contact us at
www.aaroninvestigations.com or (877) 754-3518.

Infidelity on the computer

2009-10-15T11:39:00.000-07:00

Is your mate cheating on you over their computer?

Infidelity by computer has become a larger means of cheating over the last 10 years due to the internet and usage of social websites. People are looking up old friends and are using e-mail as a means of communicating without becoming suspect from using telephones.

Individuals seem to think that erasing their internet movements means nobody can track their contacts. This is far from true as computer technicians are able to reformat a hard drive to show most all information originally stored on them including temporary files.

This means of computer forensics is not only used to find cheating individuals, but for obtaining evidence in cases of child pornography and fraud.

Hidden Cameras-What's legal, what's not?

2009-10-08T19:21:00.000-07:00

Hidden cameras can be placed in certain locations, but not in other!

Often times, companies have problems with employee theft, but don't know the legalities
of placing hidden cameras.

Hidden cameras can be placed anywhere an individual has no right to specific privacy
such as breakrooms, a warehouse, office space, entry & entrance locations, or any place
the public can roam freely.

Hidden cameras cannot be placed in areas such as restrooms or changing rooms where an
individual has an expected right to privacy from another individual or electronic means.

For a free consultation to find out more information regarding installation of hidden cameras or CCTV systems, go to www.aaroninvestigations.com

Surveillance or GPS Tracking

2009-09-29T10:50:00.000-07:00

Which is better for your case, Surveillance or using a GPS Tracking Unit

It really depends on your case objectives!

If you just need to know where an individual's travel routes and what stops they are making,
a GPS Tracking Unit placed on the vehicle can fulfill the need.

If you need pictures or video of where an individual stops and who they meet with, you'll
need to have a surveillance conducted.

In many instances, you can use both to have a read-out of all stops made and pictures to co-oberate their actions.

Pre-Marital Investigation

2009-09-24T08:01:00.000-07:00

These are often done for individuals who:
-Have been married before

Locate or Missing Persons Investigation

2009-09-22T11:58:00.000-07:00

What's the difference between a locate investigation & a missing persons investigation?

A locate investigation is considered an attemp to find an old friend, a relative, a classmate etc.
This usually involves database searches consisting of the individual's name, date of birth, social security number and past address. Locates are usually found within a matter of days.

A missing person investigation involves getting out and physically searching for an individual, interviewing neighbors, witnesses, co-workers, friends and working with the law enforcement entity where the missing person report was taken. This investigation can take days or weeks to track down a missing person. Often times, the person is either a child, an adult with alzheimer's or someone with mental deficiencies who has wandered off. In other instances, the case can turn into an actual kidnapping or abduction.

Pre-Employment Background Screening

2009-09-21T10:27:00.000-07:00

Many people have asked me why pre-employment background screening is so important in today's world. Here's a few examples of why these should be mandatory for every business to have done:

Education:
To verify that an individual has a diploma or degree
(Over 60% of applicants lie about their education on applications)

Criminal Records:
To find out in an applicant has a criminal record prior to hiring them

Social Security Number
To verify that the person is who they say they are and that they are legal
to be in this country

Wants & Warrants
To find out if the applicant is wanted or has a warrant for arrest by any law enforcement

Protection Against Negligent Hiring Lawsuits
If you hire an individual with a violent criminal past and that individual commits a violent
act against you or your employees and you didn't conduct a background check to find out
this past information, you could be looking at being sued for negligent hiring. Losing a
negligent hiring lawsuits can bankrupt a small business as the cost can be in the million
dollar range.

Bodyguard or Executive Protection Specialist

2009-09-17T09:34:00.000-07:00

What's the difference between a bodyguard and an executive protection specialist?

-Executive Protection Specialists plan ahead and determine potential risks or dangers.
-Bodyguards go with their target wherever they go with little or no pre-planning.

-Executive Protection Specialists are specifically trained on counter-intelligence and courses of action should an attack be initiated against their target such as: safe house destinations, where local hospitals or emergency medical services can be obtained, coordination with law enforcement for motorcades, travel routes, etc.,
-Bodyguards usually don't have this specific training.

-Executive Protection Specialists usually work in teams comprising of 2-12 agents and use specific formations for moving targets depending on the circumstances such as walking or driving.
-Bodyguards usually work as 1 or 2 individuals protecting their targets.

GPS tracking

2009-09-15T11:48:00.000-07:00

Last month I had a case where the husband was known to be cheating, but the wife didn't know where he was going during the day or who he was meeting with. Being the husband's job involved traveling throughout Arizona, conducting a regular surveillance would have taken numerous investigators and vehicles. We decided to attach a GPS (Global Positioning System) to the husband's vehicle so that only one investigator with a laptop could follow him and still obtain video of where he was going and with whom he was meeting.

After 3 days of following the individual with GPS, we were able to obtain video of him meeting another co-worker on multiple occassions in another city some 90 miles away!

We provided the vehicle to the spouse, who in turn confronted her husband with the evidence.

Protecting a student from harrassment & threats

2009-09-14T11:15:00.000-07:00

I had a female college student contact me and told me she was being threatened by a guy she had previously dated. She stated the guy was from Turkey and had been harrassing her by leaving texts stating if she didn't get back together with him, he would do harm to her family and kids.
We obtained an order of protection from the local court and had him served the following day. He arrived in court and told the judge he had not threated the lady or her family. We showed the judge the texts the defendant had left on her phone and the judge became furious and ordered the student not to have any further contact or be within 2 miles from the lady, her family or her residence.
Once we found out the Turkish student was here on an expired student visa, we had U.S. Customs pick him up and deport him out of the country with no chance of returning to school here.
