The Importance of Reputation

Friday, January 27th, 2012

Especially in a country where private investigators are not required to get licenses or certifications or even qualifications to practice the trade, it is very important for PI agencies to establish a good rapport and reputation as industry players.
Since Thailand has no law or requirement for private investigation agencies and private investigators to have a licence, one can simple set up shop and call his business a “private investigation agency” himself a “private investigator”. But the sad truth is that many… Read More

After the breakup: You may be in a better place than you think

Friday, January 20th, 2012

There's something about human beings that makes us crave answers. I suppose it goes without saying that this curiosity, this desire to know "why," has been one of the driving forces behind our progressive civilization. It's also the one-word question that we as parents spend endless hours answering for our children from the time they're toddlers, "Why is the sky blue?" To the time they grow up, "Why can't I date her? She’s a talented dancer! She’s just in a bad place at the right time." Read More

Is change for cheaters?

Friday, January 13th, 2012

Many of our readers have gone through some sort of brush in with cheaters. Be it on a professional or on a personal and intimate level, that experience is not always a pleasant one. And then comes the proverbial question: Will they change? Can they even change to begin with?
To be fair, cheaters CAN change, but it is not up to you, it will always be up to them. It’s important to realize that upfront. The decision you have is whether or not you should give them a chance or should you just walk away and move on. Conventional and practical… Read More

On Moving On

Friday, January 6th, 2012
As one door closes another one opens. There may be a brief time in between the doors when you are meant to reflect or learn from your old door before you can be ready to step into the opening of a new one. A closed door may be an opportunity to move forward in our lives. This is a time of preparation, a time to find peace within you. The door that was shut will always be a glass door. Look back through it with gratitude and embrace every moment you had, while it was open. It was a part of you, which has helped mold you into the person you have become. Read More

Why Monitoring May be the Solution for You

Friday, December 23rd, 2011

Imagine yourself in this situation: You are in a relationship. At the beginning things seem great, things seem wonderful, like all relationships are in the beginning. After some time passes, it begins to slow down, again, like all relationships do. But then unlike other relationships, you experience something different. You’re kept up at night by nagging thoughts and suspicions. You are uneasy, even at work, and maybe a few people have noticed. You’re becoming more and more paranoid, and you think the other person you are in a relationship with… Read More

Dealing with Missing Persons Cases

Friday, December 16th, 2011

I am of the opinion that cases involving finding missing people is probably one of the most difficult, if not THE most difficult, aspects of my work. But it is also the most rewarding one. Most often missing cases are hardly ever given a minute’s notice by law enforcement, except in exceptional cases. You have to understand, there are other, bigger cases to press on, and being human, the police can only do so much.
Particularly when I am called upon to trace a long lost relative, or a son or a daughter a parent… Read More

It Always Pays to Be Careful

Friday, December 9th, 2011

It’s been said time and again, and the reminders are everywhere.
It always pays to be careful with the Thai girls you date or go out with. There are many, many articles on the web and a couple on this site that talk about the risks you take when you trust your Thai girlfriend too much. There have been countless news reports and articles about how many expats have been left metaphorically and literally with their pants down, embarrassed to the core, because they trusted their girlfriends and one night partners too much.
Henson, 37, found himself… Read More

Understanding the ‘rules’ of the game

Tuesday, November 29th, 2011

It can be very difficult to catch a cheating partner.
Understandably, most people do not know how to investigate a partner. But, if you want to catch a cheater, it often helps to understand the nature of the problem at hand.
Why is it so difficult to catch a cheating partner? Catching a cheating partner is difficult because cheaters have an unfair advantage when it comes to infidelity. In fact, most infidelity goes undetected, or unproven, because the rules of the game tend to favor those who cheat.
For one, they take advantage… Read More

If It Smells Fishy, Stay Away From It

Friday, July 15th, 2011
Sometimes it happens that we get a case or two which involves people being involved in some kind of illegal activity. Most often, they never really know what’s happening or what laws they broke – they were scammed into committing illegal acts. Sometimes there are also people who involve themselves in it because of the money or payoff involved – and oftentimes their rationale is because no one gets hurt. . We understand that it is hard for many to completely grasp not only the culture, but also the laws in a certain place. Especially… Read More
