Have you ever been attacked by a wild animal?

Throwback to this little gem. One of the more rare risks of Process serving. (Unless you live in obviously)

I've received plenty of verbal abuse over the years, the occasional physical threat, been threatened with weapons but only this once was I at risk from aggressive seagulls.

We've all experienced greedy gulls at the seaside but how aggressive are these particular ones to warrant this sign?

If you require a Process server who is not afraid of Gulls, give us a call!

Status Reports

Our status reports can be used for various reasons. E.G.:-
🕵️‍♀️Check if a debtor has means to pay
🕵️‍♀️Check a company is what it seems to be before allowing them credit
🕵️‍♀️Check a person is who they say they are before going into business with them
🕵️‍♀️Check the status of a company director before accepting a personal guarantee

Below are some examples of the data we can uncover just from our desk. We also offer local enquiries when relevant.

We were disappointed by this headline from the Law Society Gazette. It implies the solicitor was fined for hiring a PI which is not the case.

The solicitor was deemed to have taken advantage of a litigant in person and sought her address despite her not having to give it. The solicitor then shared that data with his client, which he should not have done.

It is completely legal to hire a PI to trace a person and any reputable agency will explain to you what the process is based on the reason for the trace.

We are aware that WAPI - World Association of Professional Investigators have asked the Law Society to clarify this matter.

SDT finds sole practitioner repeatedly asked litigant in person for her contact details and passed them to his client.

Process Serving

Many people may only recall seeing process servers on US TV shows. Often delivering documents with the line "You've been served".

But process servers are also a very important part of the UK legal system, in particular when one party in a dispute won't engage with the legal process.

Our latest blog (link in comments) looks in more depth at how Process Serving works in the UK.

If you require a Process Server please get in touch!

Private Detective - Manchester
Being based in the North West, Manchester is one of our core service areas.

However the nature of the investigation industry, and the work undertaken means we do not restrict ourselves to one area. EJM Investigations are able to assist clients in and the rest of the UK. If needed we can even liaise with investigators overseas.

Our latest blog (link in Comments) might mention Manchester, but the principles remain wherever you are based in the UK

Matrimonial Investigations
At EJM Investigations we like to speak extensively with a client before undertaking any investigation involving suspected infidelity.

In many cases the client is aware that something has changed and has a feeling that means there partner is being unfaithful.

We like to go through the options and associated costs before a client commits to what is often a major decision.

You can read more in our latest blog. (link in comments)

SURVEILLANCE

Often the first thing that springs to mind when you think about a private detective, surveillance is a very important tool. It can also be very expensive.

It is not always the most useful though. At EJM Investigations we will look at your case and decide if surveillance really is the most appropriate way forward.

The types of cases where we have used surveillance are many and varied, but include:
🕵️‍♂️- Cheating Partners
🕵️‍♂️- Fraudulent Injury Claims
🕵️‍♂️- Address Tracing
🕵️‍♂️- Proving a Breach of a Court Order
🕵️‍♂️- Cohabitation
🕵️‍♂️- Moonlighting Employees

If you think you might need the help of a surveillance team, or any of our other investigative services, please get in touch! We operate across the UK.

People Tracing

At EJM Investigations we have a great track record in tracing people, even those who don't wish to be found.

However, the foundation of any trace we do is GDPR compliance.

We don't always needs a persons consent to process their data, but we do have a responsibility that certain criteria are met, if we are going to do so.

Our latest blog looks at this in more detail. See link in comments!

If you wish to trace someone who is a debtor, old friend or for any other reason, get in touch for a chat.

Fixed fee options are available.
