    Investigations often involve sensitive issues, but your pricing shouldn't be one of them.

    Many professional services keep pricing vague, but we’ve been in your shoes: wondering what something costs, hesitant to call, worried about sticker shock.

    That’s why we provide clear starting points for our investigation services. You’ll still receive a customized quote after we learn the full scope of your matter; we’ll never leave you guessing.

    Fairness, clarity, and professionalism — it’s how we start every engagement.
