How We Can Help
Surveillance. Covert or overt observation for legal, corporate, and personal matters. Findings are logged and time- and date-stamped, and strategies can be adjusted as circumstances change. Some situations call for a full private investigator; others simply need a trained professional observer to monitor and document a location or situation. We do both.
Background Investigations. Accurate, discreet, and legally compliant background checks using industry-leading databases and investigative tools. Useful for pre-employment screening, vetting tenants, evaluating personal relationships, and verifying the people you’re about to trust — for businesses, landlords, and individuals alike.
Process Service. Professional service of legal documents, including assignments involving recipients who are difficult to locate.
Specialist referrals. Not every case is the right fit for every investigator. When your situation calls for specialized expertise, we’ll point you toward the right professional — because the right outcome matters more than keeping your business.
Why Qualified Investigations?
Qualified Investigations is owned and led by Chris Cloud, a former Navy Submarine Electronics Technician who went on to a career in wireless telecommunications and network design, including major NFL and MLB stadium projects. Chris knows surveillance — and he knows what it’s like to be the client. His own experiences hiring investigative services, and his frustration with results that didn’t match the cost, are what led him to pursue licensure as a private investigator and build a firm that treats every case as if it were its own.
Before an Investigation Begins
If you’ve never hired an investigator before, the first conversation is usually simpler than you might expect. To get the most out of it, it helps to have:
- Your concern, in plain language — what’s happening and what you’re hoping to establish
- Relevant information — names, photos, addresses, dates, and anything else that identifies who or what is involved
- A sense of your objective — the specific question you want answered
- An open discussion of scope and budget — what an investigation would involve, what it costs, how you’ll receive updates, and what happens before any additional work begins
Bring what you have — don’t worry about organizing it. That’s part of what we’ll do together.
Let’s Talk About Your Case
The easiest first step is a confidential conversation. Tell us what’s going on, and we’ll tell you honestly whether an investigation makes sense — and what it would involve.
