Choosing a private detective in Atlanta can be a difficult task. The private detective industry has grown with the changing needs of the public, social issues like infidelity and unionization have impacted the industry. Many private investigators were hired to search out evidence of adultery or other illegal conducts within marriage to establish grounds of divorce and according to press reports, collecting evidence of adultery or other “bad behaviour” by spouses and partners is still one of the most profitable activity investigators undertake as the stakes being fought over now are child custody, alimony or marital property disputes.
Private investigators also engage in a large variety of work that is not usually associated with the industry in the mind of the public. For example, many Personal investigators are involved in process serving, the personal delivery of summons, subpoenas and other legal documents to parties in a legal case. The tracing of absconding debtors can also form a large part of a PI’s work load.
Many jurisdictions requires private investigators to be licensed and they may or may not carry weapons i.e. fire arms depending on the local laws, some of these PI’s are ex-police, former federal agents, some are ex-spies and some are ex-military although a large number of them are not. They are expected to keep detailed note, and to testify in court regarding any of their observations on behalf of the client.
In the state of Georgia, private investigators and PI agencies have to be licensed and according to the law of the state every private investigator are to be licensed by the state of Georgia and are to act within the standard established by the secretary of state board of private detective and security agencies.
Increasingly, modern PI’s prefer to be known as “professional investigators” or licensed Private Investigators rather than private investigators or detectives. This is in response to the image that is sometimes attributed to the profession and an effort to establish and demonstrate the industry to be a proper and respectable profession.
