Licensed private investigators conduct surveillance, locate people, research records, and document evidence for clients and attorneys.

They must follow the law. Investigators observe activity in public places and use lawful sources, and they cannot trespass, wiretap, or impersonate police.

Pin Tip

Always confirm an investigator’s license before hiring.

Stay Within the Law

Use cameras to protect your own property, never to record places where people expect privacy such as bathrooms or bedrooms of others. Recording laws vary, and audio recording carries extra rules. When in doubt, speak with an attorney before installing or using any surveillance system.

Professional Help

For investigations, licensed professionals know how to gather evidence lawfully. Ohio Security & Investigations, a licensed Ohio agency, can be reached at (888) 341-6960 for confidential consultations.

Quick Reminder

Review who has access to your camera app and recordings at least a few times a year.
