Cost and Pricing
We are straightforward and transparent with clients’ when discussing the cost of services to be provided. During the initial cost free consultation, we actively listen to the client’s needs. When our services are retained, a service agreement or contract is presented to the client for review and signature. The service agreement or contract identifies all costs and fees associated with the service to be provided.
Consultations
Consultation helps us better understand the client’s issues, concerns, and needs. Subsequently, the appropriate service is offered to the client for review and approval. Pricing, fees and costs are subjective. OnyxSpear, LLC does not maintain a set pricing, fees or costs schedule, as said monies are based on the nature of work requested, times required, research required, travel required, equipment required and other requirements foreseen and unforeseen.
Two Models of Pricing
Our pricing is based on two models or a combination of both models. The models are “Flat Fee” and “Hourly Billing”. Background checks are an example of the “Flat Fee” model, whereby a single fee is charged. An employee misconduct investigation is an example of the “Hourly Billing” model, whereby a client is charged by the hour for services. Services that typically take a few hours or less would likely be a “Flat Fee”. Services involving lengthy or more detailed investigation would be billed by the hour.
Searching the internet for “the cost of a private investigator?” or “how much do private investigators cost?” or “how much do private investigators charge?” will give different results with varying dollar amounts, or fees. Investigation fees, or costs are dependent on the service, or task requested. A consultation is designed to answer questions like this.
Cost is Dependent on the Service Needed
Private investigators are generally viewed as, or considered to be, inexpensive to retain. Unfortunately, that’s not always true.
A good percentage of private investigators are former police detectives and former Special Investigations Unit (SIU) members, also known as insurance fraud investigators. New York State has strict rules and regulations that govern private investigators. This link takes you to the NYS, Department of State, Division of Licensing Services website. Here you can see the requirements needed to become a private investigator. https://dos.ny.gov/private-investigator
