ICS Private Investigators in the District Columbia

When you need a Washington DC private investigator, turn to the professional and discreet agents at ICS. ICS uses highly experienced, licensed private investigator sub-contractors in Washington DC. ICS accepts cases cross-jurisdictionally because many cases that take place in the District of Columbia often involve people who live or work in another city or state. Begin your free consultation with a licensed private investigator at ICS by completing the online free consultation form, or for urgent cases please call ICS Toll Free 24 hours a day at (800) 828-9198.

ICS adheres to all Washington DC State licensing requirements and only works with sub-contractors who meet or exceed licensing guidelines. The private investigator application process in Washington DC is one of the strictest in the country due to the density of high ranking political figures that live and work in the city. ICS takes discretion and confidentiality very seriously, so you can trust your investigation to us, no matter how sensitive the subject of the case may be. Turn to ICS when you need an extortion, blackmail, intellectual property theft, or harassment investigation in Washington DC.

ICS Adultery, Infidelity, and Cheating Partner Investigtions

If you believe that your partner or spouse is cheating in Washington DC, you need to seek out the truth before you confront them. Proof of an affair can help ease the divorce process if you decide to end your marriage. In DC you can choose to file for either an “at fault” or “no fault” divorce; “at fault” divorces require a burden of proof, especially if an affair is the reason for the “at fault” filing. Evidence gathered by ICS is admissible in court and can be used to fulfill your burden of proof, where evidence collected on your own might not be eligible for admission in the hearing. Hiring a private investigator in Washington DC before you file for divorce can significantly change the outcome of the divorce. Contact ICS to start your Adultery, Infidelity, or Cheating Partner private investigation to get the facts you need in a discreet, confidential, and expedient manner.

Child Custody, Child Support, and Child Visitation Investigations

A Washington DC child custody, support, or visitation private investigation can uncover the truth about the living conditions your child is being kept in and the financial ability of the custodial parent. If you will be attending a court hearing to change or fight your parenting plan, the information obtained through a private investigation can be invaluable in proving your position to a judge. ICS can provide investigative support by locating and obtaining evidence needed for court proceedings, including income verification, lifestyle evidence, and more. You do have options for taking action against a “deadbeat dad” or “deadbeat mom” who is not paying their required child support. Contact ICS for your free consultation today to learn how a private investigator can help in your child custody case.

Missing Person and Locate Person Investigations

If you are trying to find a lost or missing person, hire a Washington DC private investigator to help you reconnect with your long lost friend or family. Private investigators are highly experienced at finding lost or missing persons, such as birth parents, missing children, long lost friends, and even debtors, scammers, con artists, cyber bullies and more, and ICS can conduct international missing persons investigations. Call ICS and begin your free consultation to find the person you are looking for in Washington DC or elsewhere.

Washington DC Computer Forensics and TSCM Private Investigator

Computer Forensics involves finding and retrieving lost, damaged, or illegal software and files from a variety of computer and ancillary devices. ICS provides a wide spectrum of surveillance and counterintelligence services in Washington DC, using advanced equipment and state of the art techniques to conduct device and data analysis. ICS will perform computer and cellular forensics on suspect devices, retrieving data while confirming and removing spyware and other malicious software. Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) can also be taken by ICS to ensure that the technology you depend on every day is not leaking information about your identity, your business, or your personal life. If someone has you under surveillance, the repercussions can be serious, and your personal safety may be in danger. TSCM involves sweeping for and removing bugs, and other forms of electronic surveillance, and is centrally managed out of our corporate office. Contact ICS today if you believe your devices, home, car, or office is under surveillance, or if you need a forensic analysis conducted on a computer device.

ICS performs pre-employment screening nationwide and we have the resources to conduct international background investigations. Whether you need pre-employment screening through our Employee Screening Program, or if you need to run a standard background check on a lover, partner, or stranger, ICS can create a full background profile on your person of interest. This helps you eliminate the constant worry about the criminal or legal history of the people who function in all aspects of your life.

ICS accepts these case types and more. Contact ICS today to begin your free consultation by calling Toll Free or submitting the free consultation form online to tell us more about your case. Private investigators from ICS are available 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays.
