Specialized services like digital forensics or corporate investigations may cost more depending on scope and complexity. Emerging Investigations offers a free initial consultation to evaluate your case and provide a transparent, customized quote — so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
Yes. The state of Florida requires all private investigators and investigation agencies to hold active licenses issued by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS). Emerging Investigations operates under Agency License No. A3100046 with full liability insurance. We strongly recommend verifying any PI's credentials through the FDACS license search portal before hiring.
Licensed private investigators in Florida can conduct surveillance in public locations, perform background checks using public records and licensed databases, locate missing persons through skip tracing, interview willing witnesses, document evidence for court proceedings, investigate insurance fraud, and serve legal process documents. Private investigators cannot wiretap phone calls, trespass on private property, impersonate law enforcement officers, hack into accounts, or access sealed court records.
Investigation timelines vary significantly by case type and complexity. A basic background check may be completed within 24 to 72 hours. Surveillance cases typically require 3 to 10 days to establish reliable patterns and document evidence. Complex corporate fraud or asset investigations can extend over several weeks. During your free consultation, Emerging Investigations provides an estimated timeline based on your specific case requirements.
