Do not accept “Call back in 24 hours” as an answer.
A missing persons case can be one of the most challenging case for a private investigator. Many times there is not much information to immediately act on and unless you have information to give to the police, you may not get the assistance and attention to your case that you need. This is where the services of a private investigator can help. Most likely the police will put your case in one of the following categories:
- Runaway
- Stranger Abduction
- Lost
- Suspicious Circumstances
- Parent/Family Abduction
- Dependant Adult
- Voluntarily Missing
- Unknown
Some of the benefits of having a private investigator working for you on a missing persons case are:
- The private investigator is working for you;
- The private investigator can be a liaison for you with many different agencies;
- The private investigator can prepare flyers and other media releases;
- The private investigator can act as a spokesperson for you to the media;
- The private investigator can organize volunteer search teams;
- The private investigator can conduct low key interviews of friends or others that may have information.
