The person I'm concerned about works outside Tuba City. Can surveillance follow them?
Yes, within the law. Mobile surveillance can follow a routine across the region and back, from public places. Plans account for travel time, and work in another state is handled by a detective licensed there.
What should I know before hiring a private detective in Coconino County?
Most records that matter in Coconino County are kept at the county level: court files with the clerk, and deeds with the county recorder or register of deeds. A good detective searches those originals rather than relying on online summaries, and confirms identity so records aren't attributed to the wrong person.
Can I record a phone call in Arizona?
Arizona generally allows a participant to record a conversation (one-party consent). Recording a conversation you're not part of is generally illegal. This is general information, not legal advice.
How much does a private detective cost in Tuba City?
Cost depends on the type of work and how much field time it needs. Records research is often a flat fee; surveillance is usually billed hourly plus expenses such as mileage. You'll get a written estimate before work begins. See what a private detective costs.
