    The Real Work A Florida Licensed PI Does Every Day

    By David Wright


    Many have a romanticized image of the life private investigators live. This is probably because films and television series have traditionally portrayed them as individuals who are routinely involved in shootouts, car chases, and investigations that take them into the most dangerous areas of a city. There are a number of young people who watch these dramas and imagine themselves in this exciting environment. In order to get a sense of the real job, individuals should take a look at the true work a Florida licensed PI does on a daily basis.

    About a third of the jobs investigators take on involve checking backgrounds of individuals. These people may be in line for a job that allows access to sensitive company information. Employers want to feel confident there is nothing in a prospective employee's history that indicates they should not be trusted. Parents, nervous about leaving their small children in the hands of a nanny, often hire a professional to double check the resume information they have received.

    Surveillance is something most people are familiar with from television and movies. They are used to characters sitting in their cars recording the comings and goings of a target. In real life, this happens all the time as well. Investigators set up video and audio equipment to get evidence and information for a client. This client might be a spouse on the verge of divorce or an employer who wants a worker watched for signs of worker's compensation fraud.

    Insurance fraud is a big problem, and insurance companies are aware that policyholders make false claims all the time. They hire detectives to conduct investigations into whether or not the individual in question has a legitimate claim or has made up a story in order to receive a big settlement. The investigators might set up surveillance cameras, talk to neighbors, and research public records to gather information for the insurance company.

    Private investigators are employed by corporations to look into any type of suspected business corruption. One owner may suspect another of misappropriating funds or mismanaging other assets. There may be questions about whether or not an employee is selling information to a competitor or secretly informing on the company for profit.

    Most people are aware that private detectives are occasionally called in when there are domestic disputes. These may include a spouse who suspects the partner of infidelity, parents who suspect a child of being involved in drug activity, or divorcing partners with child custody issues. Investigators may use surveillance techniques and contact friends and neighbors to gather information.

    Civil investigation is an interesting field that some investigators specialize in. Lawyers hire detectives when they need someone with expertise to gather information and evidence that will eventually end up before a courtroom judge. These cases can range from auto accident claims to larceny, fraud, and even murder.

    Most private investigations do not involve car chases, gunfire, or enormous retainer fees. The job can be very rewarding, interesting, and challenging however. If this is a career that really intrigues you, you should talk to someone in the profession to get a sense of what the business really entails.
