Things to look for when browsing
First make sure that the P.I. is physically present in Costa Rica. Several websites that are displayed are not physically present. Some are from Arizona or Nicaragua. They “farm” out your case to a local who may or may not be qualified. Additionally, they don’t allow you to know the identity of the person doing the investigation. Not to mention informing you if they can appear in court in the United States if necessary. Such agencies are throwing a wide net in hopes of capturing your business without informing you of consequences.
Take the time to talk to the investigator
By this I mean communicating with the actual person doing the investigation here in Costa Rica. Take the time to tell him exactly what you want to accomplish. Ask the P.I. to provide you with a written contract. Make sure that the money you send goes through a well known bank. If the P.I. listens to you, That they explain in detail what is going to likely happen during the investigation. Answers your questions without being vague or ambiguous. These will assist you when hiring a Costa Rica P.I.
