Indiana licenses private detective firms rather than individual detectives, through a state licensing board within the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency. The regulator is the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency (Private Investigator and Security Guard Licensing Board).

Does it matter that Needham Township is a township?

Only for knowing where to look. The township keeps some local records; deeds go to the county recorder or register of deeds; court records are at the county. Investigators plan searches around that structure.

A good detective searches those originals rather than relying on online summaries, and confirms identity so records aren't attributed to the wrong person.
