Firstly, you can look for a good agency by checking with a State organization for investigators. If there is an active organization in your state, most top-notch investigators will belong to it. Then, Look at the web sites of the investigators. Find out what areas they specialize in, and make sure they are able to handle your type of case.
   Secondly, you can ask for references. You may get references from law firms and other professional businesses, but not from individuals.
   Last, ask a lot of questions. Go for an interview. You need to feel confident and comfortable that they know and understand what you are looking for. Every good investigator will "listen" to you and be able to offer you some ideas, suggestions and advice to help you with your needs.
