2020 PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR COSTS GUIDE
At UKPI, we are regularly asked by prospective clients ‘How much will a Private Investigator cost?‘ as prices vary depending on the level of service you require.
As each client is different, there is no ‘standard’ price that can be given for a typical investigation, because each individual case by case requirements can be greatly different.
Every investigation can be unique and given that we do provide standard costs for some of our services, such as Tracing a Person which starts at £25.00 for bulk trace instructions, an individual’s needs can be very different. Please ensure you are aware of our fees before instructing us as once instructed a trace cannot be cancelled.
To help and assist with understanding the outline and typical prices you may be expecting to pay, we have listed our services along with their costs below to help provide a general outline and overview to this industry.
The fees of a private investigator can vary considerably and it is important that you chose a company with a proven track record and significant experience – a company like us.
