The most popular type of personal background check we do involves people talking to someone they’ve never met on the Internet.
In about 7 out of 10 of these cases, the person is not in fact who they say they are.
Gathering information to put yourself at ease with a relationship (or potential relationship) is not prying or intrusive, it’s smart.
I have used Thomas Martin’s services for many years and have found his work to be of the highest standards. He gets the job done quickly, efficiently and reliably. He is aware of the law and always submits quality reports. I highly recommend Martin Investigative Services to any attorney, business or individual who is in need of a professional investigator.

Personal background checks allow you to learn a lot more about the people around you and what those people know about you.
If you are in a committed relationship with someone, it would serve you well to get a background check sooner rather than later.
Love may be blind, but when someone has bad credit, it’s a dealbreaker.
Before you invest, before you date, before you enter in any kind of relationship, contact us and let us help you ease your mind.

An executive business woman in San Diego found us through the Internet. She was dating a man who claimed he was a “Navy Seal” who had “served in Iraq and Afghanistan.”
The problem was she felt something wasn’t right.
The private investigators at Martin Investigative Services performed a background check and extensive surveillance.
It was determined that the subject was never in the military but, in fact, an unemployed security guard with an expired guard card license. The client ended the relationship immediately.
A good private investigator knows better than anyone: your intuition is almost always correct in most situations.

What’s a typical day like?
A typical day for me can be spent dealing with locating friends and family, performing surveillance on cheating spouses, providing advice on personal and corporate security or investigating on artist and business scams.
