What to consider when choosing a detective agency

The detective's hourly rate is never uniform because it depends on:

  • the degree of difficulty of the case being solved
  • type of order performed
  • the number of people involved in the detective observation
  • amount of resources and equipment used to complete the task


When the order was non-standard, its final valuation may differ from the generally accepted price list provided on the website or presented to the client. The valuation of the order includes the number of hours during which the detective collected evidence, conducted observation and prepared a report covering all the activities performed along with conclusions.

Before you decide to use the services of a given detective agency, it is important to check whether it will cope with the task you want to entrust to it. Some detective agencies specialize in specific assignments. You should also carefully check the company's details, type of activity and whether it has the necessary license issued by the Minister of Interior and Administration allowing you to run an office. Each detective must have a valid detective license authorizing them to perform their work. Performing detective services without these documents is a crime under the law.

A website emanating with professionalism is not everything. When choosing the services of a given detective agency, it is worth considering recommendations and confirmed data. By choosing an office that employs several private detectives or operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the chance that the case commissioned by us will be solved faster and more efficiently increases.
