At Supra Private Investigators, we often encounter clients who are unsure about what to expect from our services. As a leading provider of investigative solutions, we want to demystify the role of a private investigator and provide clarity on what we do and how we can help.



What is a Private Investigator?



A private investigator (PI) is a trained professional who gathers information, conducts surveillance, and provides evidence to individuals, businesses, or organizations. Unlike law enforcement, private investigators work on a private basis, focusing on specific cases and objectives.

5. Forensic Services: Analyzing physical and digital evidence to support investigations.


6. Extortion & Blackmailing Assistance: Helping victims navigate and resolve extortion and blackmail situations.


7. Undercover Operations: Conducting discreet investigations within organizations or social circles.


8. De-bugging & Bugging: Detecting and removing hidden surveillance devices.


9. Financial Investigations: Tracing assets, identifying financial irregularities, and recovering debts.


10. Scam Investigations: Exposing and documenting scams, including online and phone-based schemes.


11. Social Media & Romance Scams: Investigating online fraud and deception.


12. Surveillance: Monitoring individuals, locations, or assets to gather evidence or information.


13. Background Checks: Verifying identities, employment history, and criminal records.


14. Infidelity Investigations: Gathering evidence of cheating or dishonesty in personal relationships.


15. Missing Persons Cases: Locating individuals, reuniting families, or resolving custody disputes.


16. Asset Recovery: Tracing and recovering stolen or hidden assets.


17. Digital Forensics: Analyzing digital evidence, recovering deleted data, and investigating cybercrimes.


18. Business & Company Investigations: Investigating workplace theft, employee misconduct, or competitor intelligence.

1. Clear objectives: Define what you want to achieve or discover.


2. Relevant details: Share any relevant information, documents, or evidence.


3. Contact information: Provide contact details for individuals involved.
