This is a real business, not like TV

You know you would think by now i would be used to all the stories, the sob stories, the excuses, but even after being in this field since 1987, this is a real business, not like TV and no i cant do what they do on tv. i have a client who bounced a check in 2008, disappeared since everyone else got screwed too. Came back in 2010, but i needed the money to do the work, got it. Now in 2012, they owe me $80.. They are not licensed, not part of a group and every time you call you get a differnt owner or person's name. now the screen your calls. They have been banised from Napps, and NJLPIA and NJPSSA and any other group you can find. They use a UPS or mailbox store as their address. if they dont recogonize your call they answer the phone another company. Come on people, im an investigator, I WILL Find you.. maybe not today, maybe not tommorow but i will find you. I have been through hard times too, staff turn over is horrible in this business, again they think its like TV. You undercut me and so on and so on. This is not the field it once was 20 years ago. That being said. Harris Investigations, LLC is still going strong, with offices in PA, NJ, DE and MD need us? call us 888-484-9827 or www.harrisinvestigations.net

Leap Days and Rain

Its been a pretty busy month for us, I have to admit. Jessica settled right back in. We are pretty much paperless finally in 2012. We started a new part timer. I have to count my blessings we are bigger, we are busier. We might pretty much have good team. We have a hard time with the part timers staying around. We are now in Pa, NJ, DE and MD. Michele is licensed in all those states, Charlie is licensed in Pa, NJ and DE. We now have three notaries. Jessica and Charlie are notaries in Pa. Michele is a notary in De and Pa. We have made some good contacts. We have facebook pages for all our offices. We have a new website with a new webmistress, Diane. We have part timers in our NJ office now.

Though i do not still recommend starting your own buisness, i am greatful for what we have.

Rainy days and leap days help us catch up and take a breathe

Insurance Fraud... what is it really

Did you know there is an insurance fraud protection act?This act requies plantiff's to prove fewer things than common law fraud. What you say?

NJ Insurance Fraud Prevention Act 17:33 A-4 basically states knowinly providing false or misleading information that is material to a claim for benfits or application for insurance is fraud.. This can be verbally or in writting. It can be the person or a practioner that writes the statement as well.

the big violation is your principle residence. this is not one that you live seasonally or a weekend residence.

the first violation can result in penalities up to $5000 for 1st time offcense

A reason not to drink and drive or let someone drunk drive your car...

In New Jersey, the DWI laws punish not only a drunk driver but the person who let the drunk driver use their car. You have to read Title 39:4-50. I was shocked when I read it.

The law reads:

a person who… permits another person who is under the influence of intoxicating liquor, narcotic, hallucinogenic or habit-producing drug to operate a motor vehicle owned by him or in his custody or control or permits another to operate a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or more"

In English, if you permit someone to drive the car that is registered to you or a rental car you rented, then you can be charged with a DWI. If found guilty, the penalties are the same as if you were convicted for a DWI. Even worse, if you had a prior DUI or DWI, then that prior conviction can be used to treat you as a second DWI offender.

As a first offender in New Jersey, the penalties include license suspension, fines and surcharges, intoxicated driver classes and the ignition interlock device. Second offender status means that the license suspension is for two years and there is also mandatory jail-time.

I cant believe there are still hinky Pi's out there

More and more there are want to be or try to be Pi's out there doing what is illegal. The big one is cell and telephone records and complete statements. NOPE illegal. STILL and always will be.

Pretexting.. STILL a no no
HIPPA stuff... STILL a no no

what you can find on google and the internet and some of these goofy sites you find on line.. NOPE RUN Dont use them. Many of them are not usable in court.

My two cents but im sure many other real, LICENSED, BONDED AND INSURED, Pi's agree!!!!

The PI business

Its been a few month since I blogged and i really had to think why? Believe me its not that we were busy, as we are not. It seems that i spend more time trying to market to find clients and to make those we have pay their bills then do investigations any more. I am also blessed and lucky to have in our office a amazing right arm in Jessica. She could do my job any time. She has that passion that I realized that might have lost until today. Seeing was the PSU family is going thru with the death of Joe Pa, loosing my cousin suddenly and unexpectantly, i have more to be greatful and thankful for.

Harris Investigations, LLC is STILL that amazing company that I run with my husband of almost 18 years. Harris Investigations, LLC STILL is the best agency out there according to 100's of people that are are clients. We get new clients every week that say, why why why, didnt we use you before.

This is not a business for the people that want to work it when they want to. You have to put your mind, heart and sole into this business. This is a 24 hour a day business, not a when you feel like it thing. This is NOT an easy business to get into. Many of my collegues from years ago are gone, not passsed away, but out of business. You collegue accross the street can undercut you in minute. The internet can put you out of business if people believe everything they read.

We continue to grow and expand every day, any way we can. Recently we moved into College Park, Maryland. This makes us licensed in PA, NJ, DE and MD. Where else can you get that? only people recently trying to be like us are doing this.

We did it first

Follow our facebook pages, our linked in, our Tristate groups and learn every day like i still do.
