About Big Brother Investigations
Big Brother Investigations is a fully licensed and insured investigative agency specializing in fugitive locates and recovery.
We offer professional, confidential service to a wide range of clients throughout California and nationwide.
- Our Team is comprised entirely of Licensed Private Investigators – Including Female Investigators.
- We are experienced, and fully insured to $1,000,000.00 – protecting and indemnifying you, our client…unlike un-licensed and un-insured Penal Code § 1299 firms.
- We are committed to the safe handling and discreet recovery of fugitives for your bail company.
- We implement only Best Practices in our recovery work and have NEVER been sued!
- We utilize state-of-the-art technology and other creative investigative techniques.
- Our Team members combine to offer over 20+ years of law enforcement experience and 18+ years of bail agency management experience and 30+ years of investigative experience.
- Our investigations have taken us around the world – we will go almost anywhere to pursue a fugitive.
- Where fugitive recovery is not legal or the fugitive is beyond where a District Attorney is willing to extradite, we are experienced in implementing the elements of a Penal Code § 1305(g) motion to exonerate your bonds.
- All recovery and investigative efforts are fully documented and we have been 100% successful when filing motions pursuant to Penal Code § 1305.4 to extend the 180-day forfeiture period (the key here is to begin documenting your efforts for recovery of the fugitive immediately after receiving a notice of forfeiture).
- Bail revocations are sometimes necessary and we offer Penal Code § 1300(a) services.
- Code compliant fugitive transport services are also available.
- Other bail related services include: Background Investigations, Pre-Forfeiture Risk Assessment, Asset Verification and Acquisition, etc...
