Our Hourly rate for Conducting Investigations is $65.00 per hour. The hourly rate begins from the time the investigator leaves the office until their return. The hourly rate includes travel time to the place where the investigation takes place until the return of the investigator to the office. Some products we have for you has a flat fee for the product. Investigations we conduct do not have a flat fee. We will give you an estimate of how long it may take to do a case, for example: if we work for a lawyer to do an interview with someone, we can estimate the travel time to conduct the interview and give an estimate of the amount of time needed to conduct an interview and later produce the report on paper of the interview. If the interview last longer than expected we will be able to show you in the report the time the interview started and ended. The length of the report itself gives you clarity of the interview time. You will never receive a bill telling you we spent hours doing an interview and we give you a two paragraph report of the interview. We sit down with you and we talk about what work needs to be done and we will give you an estimate of how long we believe it will take. We offer you the opportunity to purchase those amount of hours. The hours we have estimated and you have agreed to needs to be paid in full before any work will be done on your case. Contracts are signed and work on your case will normally began within 4 days. If for some reason we can't begin in 4 days we will let you know up front.
