LOS ANGELES · PERSONAL, BUSINESS & LEGAL MATTERS
One investigation may involve more than one part of LA.
A concern can begin at home, continue at work, and lead somewhere else entirely. Eagle Stone Universal Investigations provides private investigator services in Los Angeles and throughout Los Angeles County, helping clients define the question, plan the work, and understand the findings.
Whether you need discreet surveillance, background research, help locating a person, or litigation support, start with the objective and the places involved. The right scope depends on the facts available.

Field observation
Surveillance can establish what is visible during an agreed period. Useful planning starts with a credible location, relevant timing, and a defined question.
Research and case support
Background inquiries, person-location work, and civil case investigations can address information gaps. Describe the intended use and any attorney’s instructions.
Scope the geography before the hours.
A Los Angeles assignment should account for where activity starts, likely destinations, and movement between locations. Downtown, the Westside, and the San Fernando Valley can involve very different travel and access conditions. A mileage estimate alone does not describe the time needed to cover an assignment.
During the consultation, distinguish confirmed locations from possibilities. If you only know where activity may begin, say so. That uncertainty is part of the planning discussion. We can review whether a focused time window, research first, or a broader field assignment is the most useful starting point.

What to settle before an investigation begins
- The objective: the fact or activity you want checked and why it matters.
- The boundaries: the locations, dates, budget, and agreed work.
- The communication: who receives updates and which contact method is safe.
- The reporting: what written findings and supporting material are expected.
- The review point: when to assess progress before extending the assignment.
Ask how travel, additional hours, and reporting are charged. A clear initial agreement helps you compare options and understand what a proposed investigation can realistically accomplish.
What findings can tell you
Investigative work can produce a chronology, verified records, or photographs and video when available. It can also reveal that information is incomplete or an observation period was inconclusive. Those limits belong in the discussion.
We focus on factual documentation rather than promising a particular result. A sighting may establish presence at a time and place; it does not automatically establish intent or explain everything that happened. If an attorney will review the material, discuss the requested scope and format early.
Can I arrange an LA investigation if I live elsewhere?
You can begin with a phone inquiry. Provide the Los Angeles locations involved, the reason for the request, and a safe way to reach you so the assignment can be evaluated.
How long will it take?
A records question and an observation assignment have different timelines. The available starting information, time windows, and number of locations determine the proposed schedule.
Do you cover Orange County too?
Yes. Review our Orange County services or city information for Anaheim and Santa Ana. Include all relevant cities when discussing your case.
