Private Investigator Resources
Before hiring a private investigator, always do your due diligence and look them up to ensure they are licensed. In that spirit, below are some resources that should allow you to look them up. In some cases, online checks are not provided by the regulatory authority and you will need to contact them to confirm. Also, not all states require that PIs be licensed.
