When people think of private investigators, they often picture trench coats and stakeouts from old movies. But in 2025, the reality is far more sophisticated—and far more essential. Today’s private investigators use advanced tools, deep legal knowledge, and years of field experience to uncover critical information for individuals, businesses, and legal teams alike.
At Blue Star Security, our Investigations Division is composed of experienced professionals—all of whom are state-certified law enforcement officers. We specialize in discreet, high-quality investigative services across a wide range of areas. Whether you’re navigating a civil dispute, screening new hires, or verifying a disability claim, we’re here to help.
Here’s a breakdown of the top reasons to hire a private investigator this year, and how our services can support you every step of the way.
Civil Investigations: Protect Your Interests in Court
Civil disputes can be emotionally and financially draining. Whether it’s a lawsuit, contract disagreement, or family-related matter, gathering accurate evidence can make all the difference in a successful outcome.
When to Hire:
- Suspected breach of contract
- Divorce or custody disputes
- Neighbor or tenant conflicts
Why It Matters in 2025:
With courts overloaded and legal costs rising, quality evidence can fast-track resolutions and protect your interests.
Cohabitation Investigations: Alimony and Custody Decisions Depend on the Facts
Cohabitation investigations are often used to determine whether someone receiving spousal support is living with a new partner—information that can impact legal responsibilities or court decisions.
When to Hire:
- Post-divorce alimony cases
- Child custody reevaluations
Why It Matters in Summer 2025:
Summer often brings changes in living situations, vacations, or cohabitation arrangements. It’s a smart time to verify what’s really going on.
Criminal Investigations: Support for Defense and Truth-Seeking
Whether you’re seeking evidence to support a defense case or need help uncovering the truth in a criminal matter, a private investigator can work independently or alongside legal teams to uncover critical facts.
When to Hire:
- Defense attorneys building a case
- Individuals concerned about wrongful accusations
- Businesses investigating internal crimes
Why It Matters in 2025:
The digital footprint is bigger than ever, and law enforcement resources are stretched thin. A private investigator can pick up where others left off.
Disability Claims Investigations: Verifying the Facts
False disability claims can be costly for businesses and insurers alike. Our investigators discreetly gather evidence to verify the legitimacy of claims—while maintaining respect for individuals’ privacy.
When to Hire:
- Suspected fraudulent disability claims
- Long-term or high-cost disability cases
- Pre-litigation reviews
Why It Matters in Summer 2025:
Outdoor activity increases in the summer, making it easier to observe inconsistencies in reported disabilities.
Full Background Checks: Hire and Trust With Confidence
Background checks are essential for employers, landlords, and even individuals entering into new relationships or business ventures. Blue Star Security’s background investigations go far beyond the basics, pulling from reliable, verified sources.
When to Hire:
- Hiring new employees
- Screening potential business partners
- Vetting caregivers or tenants
Why It Matters in 2025:
With remote work and digital hiring platforms increasing, fraudulent resumes and hidden red flags are more common. A full background check gives peace of mind.
Insurance Fraud Investigations: Guard Against False Claims
Fraudulent insurance claims cost billions of dollars each year. Our investigators use surveillance, interviews, and digital evidence to identify inconsistencies in claims related to property, auto, and more.
When to Hire:
- Claims that don’t match the evidence
- Suspicion of staged accidents or injuries
- Claims filed shortly after new policy activation
Why It Matters in 2025:
Insurance fraud often spikes in periods of economic strain—especially during peak travel or storm seasons. A thorough investigation can prevent unnecessary payouts.
Workers’ Compensation Investigations: Stop Fraud Before It Costs You
False workers’ comp claims don’t just cost money—they damage trust and morale. We use discreet surveillance and fact-finding to uncover fraudulent behavior and support legitimate cases.
When to Hire:
- Suspicious or exaggerated injury claims
- Claims that persist beyond reasonable recovery timelines
- Anonymous reports of claimant misconduct
Why It Matters in Summer 2025:
Warm weather months often bring side jobs or recreational activity that contradict reported injuries. It’s an ideal time to verify claimant behavior.
