The Strategic Advantage: How Modern Private Investigation is Redefining Litigation and Corporate Risk Management

Photo of an investigator conducting a trash pull
In the high-stakes world of modern litigation and corporate governance, the difference between a successful outcome and a costly failure often hinges on the quality of information. While attorneys and executives are masters of strategy and law, they are frequently limited by the information available at the surface level. This is where professional private investigation—specifically the caliber of service provided by EXCALIBUR Private Investigation—becomes an indispensable asset.

Far from the "gumshoe" stereotypes of the past, today’s elite investigators are strategic partners who utilize a blend of deep-field experience and cutting-edge technology to uncover the truth. For law firms and corporations in Florida, South Carolina, Colorado, and New Mexico, EXCALIBUR provides a tactical edge that can turn the tide of a case or safeguard a multimillion-dollar investment.

Strengthening the Pillars of Litigation

The foundation of any legal victory is evidence. However, in complex civil and criminal cases, evidence is rarely handed over on a silver platter. Attorneys often find themselves buried in discovery documents or struggling with witnesses whose stories don't quite align with the physical reality.

EXCALIBUR’s Law Firm Support services bridge this gap. Our team, composed of former federal, state, and local law enforcement professionals, understands the nuances of the courtroom. We don't just "find" information; we analyze it through an investigative lens. By reviewing case files to identify discrepancies, conducting professional interviews, and providing expert witness testimony, we help legal teams build a narrative that is both accurate and undeniable.

Surveillance remains a cornerstone of this support. Whether it involves insurance fraud, employee misconduct, or high-conflict legal disputes, the ability to gather clear, court-admissible video or photographic evidence is a game-changer. In an era where "he-said, she-said" dominates, a high-definition recording of a specific event provides the "smoking gun" that forces a settlement or secures a verdict.

Mitigating Risk in a Competitive Corporate Landscape

For businesses, the risks are multifaceted: from internal fraud and intellectual property theft to the dangers of a bad merger. Corporate intelligence and due diligence are no longer "optional" luxuries; they are essential insurance policies for the modern enterprise.

When a company prepares for a merger, acquisition, or high-level hire, they are often looking at a curated version of the truth. Our due diligence investigations go beyond a simple database search. We verify identities, histories, and reputations, digging into the "red flags" that automated systems miss. Are the executive's qualifications legitimate? Does a potential partner have undisclosed financial liabilities or a history of litigation?

Furthermore, corporate fraud—including embezzlement and asset misappropriation—can cripple a business before it’s even detected. EXCALIBUR’s ability to conduct discreet internal investigations and undercover operations allows businesses to identify threats from within, protecting their proprietary information and maintaining their competitive edge.

The Tech Revolution: Geolocation and AI

What truly sets a modern firm apart is the integration of advanced technology. At EXCALIBUR, we leverage anonymized geolocation services and AI-driven data analysis to solve mysteries that were once unsolvable.

Consider a case of high-value vandalism or theft. Physical evidence might be sparse, but digital footprints are nearly impossible to erase. By analyzing anonymized geolocation data, our investigators can identify devices present at a scene during a specific window of time, track movements, and establish timelines that correlate with other evidence. This tech-forward approach allows us to gather actionable intelligence from a distance, reducing the risk of detection while providing a level of precision that traditional methods cannot match.

Navigating Sensitive Personal and Domestic Matters

The same rigor applied to corporate cases is equally vital in personal legal matters. In domestic violence investigations, child custody disputes, or missing persons cases, the stakes are not financial—they are human.

In child custody battles, the court’s primary concern is the best interest of the child. Our investigators provide the objective evidence needed to prove or disprove claims of neglect, substance abuse, or dangerous environments. Likewise, in domestic violence cases, we offer GPS vehicle tracking, surveillance, and comprehensive background checks to help victims gather the evidence required for protective orders, ensuring their safety through a combination of technology and vigilance.

A unique facet of our service is our certified K-9 drug detection units. Available in Florida, Colorado, and New Mexico, these units provide peace of mind for parents or business owners who suspect substance abuse but require a discreet, non-confrontational way to verify their suspicions. It is this diversity of specialized services—from high-tech data to highly trained K-9s—that makes EXCALIBUR a full-spectrum private investigation firm.


The Excalibur Difference: Experience You Can Trust

Ultimately, tools and technology are only as effective as the people operating them. In the world of private investigation, there is no substitute for experience. The team at EXCALIBUR Private Investigation brings decades of experience from the highest levels of law enforcement and military service. We understand what can—and more importantly, what cannot—legally be done. We operate with a strict commitment to ethics, confidentiality, and professionalism.

Whether we are finding a missing person who doesn't want to be found, uncovering the truth in a suspicious death investigation, or identifying a competitor’s supply chain vulnerabilities, our goal is always the same: to provide our clients with the clarity they need to make informed decisions.

In a world full of noise and misinformation, EXCALIBUR stands as a beacon of truth. For law firms, corporations, and individuals, we are more than just investigators—we are your eyes and ears in the field, ensuring that when you enter the courtroom or the boardroom, you do so with the strongest hand possible.

Protecting Your Rights: How EXCALIBUR Private Investigation Supports Clients Facing Sexual Harassment in the Workplace and Academic Environments

Excalibur Private investigation helping sexual harassment victims
Sexual harassment remains a pervasive issue in workplaces and academic institutions, creating toxic environments that can severely impact individuals’ well-being, confidence, and productivity. For those enduring unwanted advances, inappropriate remarks, or even retaliation after reporting such behavior, securing solid evidence is essential in addressing the harassment effectively. EXCALIBUR Private Investigation offers tailored support to clients in both professional and educational settings, ensuring their rights are upheld and justice pursued.

The Role of Private Investigators in Sexual Harassment Cases
​
When dealing with sexual harassment, thorough, objective evidence is often necessary for legal proceedings or organizational action. Here’s how EXCALIBUR Private Investigation assists clients:
​
  1. Gathering Evidence
    Private investigators can collect critical evidence discreetly, from digital communications like emails and text messages to audio or video recordings where legally permissible. For instance, in some cases, a skilled investigator may document meetings, compile witness statements, or obtain surveillance footage that corroborates the client’s claims. This objective, professionally gathered evidence can strengthen a victim’s case, providing them with the credibility needed to challenge their harasser effectively.
  2. Background Checks on the Harasser
    Investigators can conduct background checks to identify patterns of inappropriate behavior by the alleged harasser, including past complaints or legal issues that may suggest a history of misconduct. Such insights can be pivotal, especially in academic settings where faculty members or staff might have a previous record of complaints, giving administrators or legal teams a fuller understanding of the individual involved.
  3. Surveillance and Documentation
    Discreet surveillance can be instrumental in documenting instances where the harasser may attempt to retaliate or intimidate the victim. This form of evidence can protect the client from further misconduct, particularly in academic institutions where both the victim and the perpetrator may be in the same vicinity daily.
  4. Guidance on Reporting and Legal Compliance
    EXCALIBUR’s investigators are experienced with Title IX cases in academic settings, offering guidance on proper reporting channels and legal compliance. Navigating policies and understanding one’s rights can be challenging, especially in complex organizations like universities, which have specific procedures for handling sexual harassment claims. The team at EXCALIBUR helps clients follow appropriate protocols, strengthening their case and minimizing risk.
  5. Testimony and Expert Support
    In legal proceedings, having a professional investigator testify can significantly reinforce a client’s position. EXCALIBUR’s investigators can present collected evidence, share their findings in court, and provide expert opinions on the matter, which can influence the case’s outcome.
  6. Emotional and Professional Support
    Sexual harassment cases are often emotionally charged, and the process of gathering evidence can feel daunting. At EXCALIBUR, clients are treated with respect and empathy, with investigators handling each case sensitively and professionally, focusing on the client’s dignity and safety.

What is Video Voyeurism and how can the Private Investigators of EXCALIBUR Private Investigation help you combat it?

How can Excalibur private investigation help with video voyeurism?
What is Video Voyeurism?

Video voyeurism involves the act of secretly recording or live-streaming someone without their consent in a private setting where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy. This can occur in places such as homes, restrooms, changing rooms, and other locations where individuals expect privacy. The use of hidden cameras, smartphones, or other recording devices to capture intimate images or videos is not only a severe invasion of privacy but also a criminal offense.

The motivations behind video voyeurism can vary, including sexual gratification, harassment, or blackmail. Victims of video voyeurism often experience significant emotional distress, feeling violated and unsafe in their private spaces. The non-consensual distribution of these recordings can further amplify the damage, leading to long-term psychological trauma and reputational harm.


How Can EXCALIBUR Private Investigation Help Fight Against Video Voyeurism?

The professional private investigators (PIs) of EXCALIBUR  have worked numerous cases involving video voyeurism and can play a crucial role in combating this crime if you suspect you're a victim. Here are several ways in which we can assist:

Detection and Investigation
  • Hidden Camera Detection: Our team of professional private investigators are trained to locate hidden cameras and recording devices that may be disguised as everyday objects. Using advanced equipment, we sweep homes, offices, and other private spaces to ensure they are free of surveillance devices.
  • Evidence Collection: If a hidden camera is found, we'll collect and preserve evidence in a manner that is admissible in court. We document the presence and placement of the device, and often work with law enforcement to ensure the evidence is handled correctly.

Legal Assistance

  • Collaboration with Attorneys: The investigators of EXCALIBUR often work closely with legal professionals to build a strong case against the perpetrator. We gather evidence, take witness statements, and provide expert testimony in court if necessary.
  • Identifying Perpetrators: Through thorough investigations, EXCALIBUR's investigators can help identify who placed the recording devices and gather information that can lead to their apprehension and prosecution.

​Preventive Measures

  • Security Consultations: Our professional private investigators often offer advice on enhancing security measures to prevent future incidents of video voyeurism. This might include installing more secure locks, using anti-spyware technologies, and educating individuals on how to detect and prevent unauthorized surveillance.

Laws Pertaining to Video Voyeurism in Colorado, New Mexico, and South Carolina

The laws regarding video voyeurism vary by state, but all have stringent penalties to deter this invasive crime. In the states where we have investigators the laws are as follows:

Colorado: In Colorado, video voyeurism is addressed under Colo. Rev. Stat. § 18-7-801. It is unlawful to knowingly observe or record another person’s intimate parts without consent when they have a reasonable expectation of privacy. The offense is considered a class 1 misdemeanor, but it can be escalated to a class 6 felony if the victim is a minor or if the perpetrator has prior convictions for similar offenses.

New Mexico: New Mexico's law on video voyeurism is covered under N.M. Stat. Ann. § 30-9-20. It is illegal to record or view another person’s intimate areas without their consent when they expect privacy. Violations are categorized as a misdemeanor, but repeat offenders or cases involving minors can lead to felony charges. Additionally, distributing such recordings without consent is a separate felony offense.
​

South Carolina: South Carolina addresses video voyeurism under S.C. Code Ann. § 16-17-470. The law makes it a crime to secretly record, photograph, or view someone in a private space without their consent. This includes bathrooms, dressing rooms, and other areas where individuals expect privacy. Offenses are treated as misdemeanors, but aggravated circumstances, such as repeat offenses or involvement of minors, can elevate the charges to a felony.
​

Conclusion

Video voyeurism is a serious crime that infringes upon the privacy and dignity of individuals. EXCALIBUR Private Investigation offers valuable services in detecting and preventing such offenses, collecting evidence, and assisting in legal proceedings. Understanding the specific laws in states like Colorado, New Mexico, and South Carolina is crucial for victims seeking justice and for those aiming to protect their privacy. By leveraging the expertise of our private investigators, over 30+ years of law enforcement experience, and the protections provided by state laws, individuals can take proactive steps to safeguard their personal spaces and hold perpetrators accountable.

Unlocking Mysteries: How Anonymized Geolocation Services Aid the Private Investigators of EXCALIBUR Private Investigation

Geolocation Serves EXCALIBUR Private Investigation
In the digital age, where data flows freely and technology interweaves with daily life, the private investigators (PIs) of EXCALIBUR Private Investigation, serving Colorado, New Mexico and South Carolina, have found a new ally in anonymized geolocation services. These services, which provide location data without revealing personal identities, have revolutionized the investigative field, offering a wealth of information while maintaining privacy. This balance of data utility and confidentiality is crucial for both ethical considerations and effective case-solving. Here's how EXCALIBUR Private Investigation leverages anonymized geolocation to crack cases and uncover truths offering an investigative technique that most firms just don't have the knowledge, or expertise, to offer.

Understanding Anonymized Geolocation Services

Anonymized geolocation services collect and provide location data stripped of personally identifiable information (PII). This data is aggregated from various sources such as mobile devices, GPS systems, and Wi-Fi networks. The anonymization process ensures that while the data reveals patterns and trends, it does not directly expose individual identities. For EXCALIBUR's investigators, this translates to a powerful tool that can trace movements, identify hotspots, and establish timelines without infringing on privacy rights.

Tracing Movements and Establishing Timelines

One of the primary applications of anonymized geolocation in investigations is tracking movements and establishing timelines. By analyzing location data, our investigators can piece together an individual's movements over a specified period. For example, in a case of suspected infidelity, we use anonymized geolocation data to confirm if a spouse visited specific locations at times that correlate with the suspicions. Similarly, in a missing persons case, the last known locations can provide critical leads on the individual's movements before they disappeared.

Identifying Patterns and Hotspots

Anonymized geolocation data can reveal patterns and identify hotspots of activity. This is particularly useful in cases of fraud or theft where EXCALIBUR's professional investigators need to understand the behavior of a suspect. For instance, if there is a pattern of thefts occurring in a specific neighborhood, geolocation data can help identify common points of interest or routes taken by potential suspects. This data can then be cross-referenced with other evidence to narrow down the list of suspects.

Enhancing Surveillance Operations

Surveillance is a cornerstone of private investigation work. Anonymized geolocation services enhance surveillance by providing a broader context of an individual's movements. Instead of relying solely on physical surveillance, which can be time-consuming, conspicuous, and expensive, our investigators use geolocation data to monitor movements from a distance. This approach not only saves time but also reduces the risk of detection, allowing evidence to be gathered more discreetly.

Cross-Referencing Data for Corroboration

In complex cases, corroborating evidence from multiple sources is crucial. Anonymized geolocation data can be cross-referenced with other data sets such as social media activity, financial transactions, and witness statements to build a comprehensive case. For example, if a suspect claims to have been at a certain location during a crime, geolocation data can either support or contradict their alibi. This cross-referencing strengthens the overall evidence, making the case more robust.

Case Study: Solving a High-Dollar Vandalism Case

To illustrate the practical application of anonymized geolocation services, consider a case of high-dollar vandalism. EXCALIBUR Private Investigation was hired by a client who grows Christmas trees to investigate the vandalism of hundreds of trees adding up to over $400,000 in losses. By analyzing anonymized geolocation data, the professional private investigators of EXCALIBUR identified a device that was on the farm during the time and date the vandalism occurred, tracked that device's movement, and identified a suspect. Further cross-referencing with social media accounts, criminal history, and other information, was completed to gain a full picture of the suspect. The anonymized data played a crucial role in narrowing down the suspect and providing actionable leads for our law enforcement partners.

Future Prospects and Technological Advancements

The future of private investigations will likely see even greater integration of anonymized geolocation services. Advancements in data analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence will enhance the ability to analyze and interpret geolocation data. Real-time tracking, predictive modeling, and enhanced data visualization tools will further empower private investigators, making their work more efficient and effective.
 

Conclusion

Anonymized geolocation services have become invaluable in the toolkit of the private investigators of EXCALIBUR Private Investigation. By providing crucial insights into movements, patterns, and timelines, these services aid in solving a wide range of cases from infidelity and missing persons to corporate espionage and fraud. The balance of data utility and privacy ensures that our investigators can uncover truths while respecting individual rights. As technology continues to evolve, the integration of anonymized geolocation services will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in the future of private investigations, unlocking mysteries and bringing justice to those seeking answers. Do you have a case that other private investigation firms haven't been able to solve or don't seem to know how to investigate a case?

Discovering that your spouse or significant other might be cheating on you is a deeply distressing experience. While everyone’s relationship is unique, and not all changes in behavior indicate infidelity, certain signs can be red flags. At EXCALIBUR Private Investigation, serving Colorado, New Mexico, and South Carolina, we get numerous calls every day from potential clients who suspect their spouse or significant other of being unfaithful to them. Having worked hundreds of such cases over the years, we wanted to share some indicators we see over and over that a person should be on the lookout for if they suspect cheating on the part of their partner. Here are five common signs that might suggest your partner is being unfaithful.

1. Changes in Communication Patterns

Effective communication is the backbone of any healthy relationship. If your spouse or significant other suddenly becomes secretive, distant, or defensive when you try to engage in conversation, it might be a sign of infidelity. They may avoid answering questions directly or become unusually vague about their daily activities. Another red flag is if they start picking fights over trivial matters, which could be a way to create distance or justify spending time away from home.

Example: You notice that your partner, who used to share details about their day, now only provides one-word answers or avoids the topic altogether. They might also accuse you of being overly nosy or controlling when you ask about their whereabouts.

2. Increased Attention to Appearance

While paying more attention to one’s appearance can be a positive change, a sudden and unexplained shift can sometimes indicate that your partner is trying to impress someone else. This could include a new gym membership, a drastically different wardrobe, or an increase in grooming habits that weren’t previously a priority. This is one we at EXCALIBUR Private Investigation see in 100% of the infidelity cases we work!!!

Example: Your partner starts buying new clothes frequently, wears perfume or cologne more often, and spends significantly more time getting ready before leaving the house, even for routine activities like going to work or running errands.

3. Unexplained Absences and Secretive Behavior

If your partner starts spending more time away from home without reasonable explanations, it could be a sign of infidelity. This might include frequent late nights at work, sudden business trips, or spending more time with friends than usual. They may also become overly protective of their phone, computer, or social media accounts, changing passwords and ensuring their devices are always out of your reach. We've developed a variety of techniques at EXCALIBUR Private Investigation to gather evidence of a partner's unfaithfulness.

Example: You notice your partner’s phone is always on silent, and they never leave it unattended. They may also start deleting text messages or clearing their browser history regularly.

4. Changes in Intimacy

A significant change in your physical or emotional intimacy can be a strong indicator that something is amiss. This can manifest as a decrease in sexual activity, where your partner seems disinterested or avoids intimacy altogether. Alternatively, they might become unusually affectionate or introduce new techniques in bed, which could suggest they are learning from experiences outside the relationship.

Example: Your once affectionate partner now avoids physical contact, or conversely, they become overly affectionate in a way that feels forced or out of character.

5. Financial Discrepancies

Infidelity can often have a financial component. You might notice unexplained withdrawals, strange charges on credit card statements, or a sudden need for secrecy around financial matters. This could include spending money on gifts, hotels, or dinners that you were not aware of. Keeping track of your finances and addressing any discrepancies is crucial. At EXCALIBUR we've helped clients track down unexplained expenditures numerous times. In a recent case we worked, we got a copy of a receipt that was somewhat generic, interviewed the store clerk, and determined that the purchase was for a necklace our client never received from her husband.

Example: You find receipts for expensive dinners, gifts, or hotel stays that your partner hasn’t mentioned. They might also become defensive or evasive when you ask about these expenses.

Conclusion

While these signs can indicate potential infidelity, it’s important to approach the situation with caution. Accusing your partner without solid evidence can damage your relationship further. If you suspect your partner is cheating, consider having an open and honest conversation about your concerns. In a lot of cases seeking the help of a professional private investigator, such as those employed with EXCALIBUR Private Investigation, can help you find out, once and for all, if your partner is cheating. If you suspect infidelity in your relationship, let us help you get peace of mind, one way or the other.

The Importance of Law Enforcement Experience when hiring a Private Investigator

Private Investigator Colorado, New Mexico and South Carolina
In the realm of private investigation, possessing law enforcement experience can be a critical asset. Private investigators (PIs) are often called upon to solve complex cases that require a unique blend of skills, knowledge, and intuition. These attributes are honed through years of experience in law enforcement which EXCALIBUR Private Investigation possesses. This article explores the various reasons why having a background in law enforcement is invaluable for private investigators, covering aspects such as expertise, credibility, networking, and ethical standards.
 
Expertise and Skillset
 
One of the primary benefits of law enforcement experience is the expertise and skillset that former officers bring to the table. Law enforcement professionals are trained extensively in various aspects of investigation, including surveillance, interrogation, evidence collection, and crime scene analysis. These skills are directly transferable to private investigation, allowing former officers to approach cases with a depth of knowledge that is difficult to replicate through other means. EXCALIBUR Private Investigation was founded by just such an individual who came to the private investigation industry with over 25 years’ experience. Lee Walters, founder and President, served 25 years with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and has worked in the private investigation industry for 12 years bringing that wealth of experience to all the firm’s clients.
 
For instance, surveillance is a crucial component of many private investigations, whether it involves tracking a missing person or monitoring a subject for infidelity. Law enforcement officers are trained to conduct surveillance in a discreet and effective manner, utilizing techniques that ensure they remain undetected while gathering critical information. This expertise can significantly enhance the quality and accuracy of a private investigation. Lee served as team leader of the Special Operations Group (SOG) in the Chicago Division of the FBI for over 5 years and was assigned to some of the highest profile investigations in the country. All of EXCALIBUR's investigators are trained in the techniques that were used to much success by the SOG during Lee's service.
 
Credibility and Trust
 
Credibility is a cornerstone of the private investigation industry. Clients seek out private investigators they can trust to handle sensitive and often personal matters. A background in law enforcement lends a significant degree of credibility to a private investigator. Many private investigators, especially in states such as Colorado that don’t require licensing, don’t have the kind of experience former law enforcement officers do. EXCALIBUR’s team of private investigators have a strong ethical foundation, discipline, and a commitment to upholding the law. Unfortunately that can’t be said for some of our competitors.
 
Moreover, law enforcement experience often means that the investigator has undergone rigorous background checks and has maintained a high standard of conduct throughout their career. This can be reassuring to clients who need to share confidential information and rely on the investigator's integrity.
 
 
Networking and Resources
 
Another critical advantage of law enforcement experience is the network of contacts and resources that former agents can access. Throughout their careers, law enforcement professionals build extensive networks within the criminal justice system, including relationships with other officers, forensic experts, and legal professionals. These connections can prove invaluable in private investigations, where collaboration and access to specialized knowledge can make a significant difference. In a recent case we were able to reach out to former FBI Agents in four different states to gather the evidence our client needed. Connections worldwide are just one of the byproducts our firm can offer that other firms just can’t.
 
For example, our private investigators have access to databases and resources that are not readily available to the general public, allowing us to gather information more efficiently and comprehensively.
 
Understanding Legal Boundaries
 
Navigating the legal landscape is a critical aspect of private investigation. Investigators must operate within the confines of the law to ensure that the evidence they collect is admissible in court and that they do not infringe on individuals' rights. Law enforcement officers are well-versed in legal procedures, search and seizure laws, and the rules of evidence. This knowledge helps us conduct investigations that are both effective and legally sound.
 
A private investigator with law enforcement experience is more likely to understand the importance of obtaining warrants, when necessary, the implications of privacy laws, and the proper methods for documenting and preserving evidence. This can prevent legal complications and ensure that the findings of an investigation hold up under scrutiny. Far too many times we’ve had clients who’ve spent hard earned money with one of our competitors in Colorado who don’t have law enforcement experience, hire us after the individual they hired wasn’t able to get what they needed.
 
Handling High-Stress Situations
 
Private investigators often find themselves in high-stress situations that require quick thinking and calm decision-making. Law enforcement officers are trained to handle such situations with composure and professionalism. Whether it involves diffusing a potentially volatile confrontation or making split-second decisions during a stakeout, the ability to remain calm under pressure is a critical skill that former law enforcement officers possess.
 
This ability is particularly important when dealing with cases that involve potential danger, such as investigations into criminal activities or missing persons. A former officer's experience in dealing with dangerous situations can enhance their effectiveness and safety in the field.
 
Ethical Standards and Professionalism
 
Ethical conduct and professionalism are paramount in the field of private investigation. Law enforcement officers are held to high ethical standards throughout their careers, and this commitment to integrity often carries over into their work as private investigators. Clients can trust that a former officer will handle their case with the utmost professionalism and respect for the law.
 
Furthermore, law enforcement experience instills a strong sense of duty and responsibility. Former officers are accustomed to working in environments where accountability is paramount, and this mindset translates well to the private investigation industry. They are more likely to conduct thorough, unbiased investigations and present their findings with honesty and transparency.
 
Conclusion
 
In conclusion, having law enforcement experience is immensely valuable for private investigators. The expertise and skills developed through years of training and practice in law enforcement provide a strong foundation for conducting effective investigations. Credibility, networking opportunities, (we used that network recently in a case that required an investigator in Kenya to gather evidence), legal knowledge, and the ability to handle high-stress situations further enhance the capabilities of former officers in the private investigation field.

Ultimately, clients seeking reliable and professional private investigators are likely to find that those with law enforcement backgrounds are exceptionally well-equipped to meet their needs. EXCALIBUR Private Investigation, presently serving Colorado, New Mexico, and South Carolina, employs a team of investigators from a diverse set of backgrounds including FBI, Secret Service, State Police, Military Police and Academia. Our motto has always been, “There is no substitute for experience,” and all of our investigators have it. Call us today at 352.509.8900, 719.208.4088, 505.208.6400 or 803.806.7800 and schedule a free, no-obligation, video or telephone consultation, and learn how we can put our law enforcement experience to work on your case.
