The person I'm concerned about works outside Kenner. Can surveillance follow them?
Yes, within the law. Mobile surveillance can follow a routine into New Orleans 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 Jefferson Parish?

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

Often. Locate work combines records research with field verification, wherever the trail leads. Moves along Interstate 10 and connecting highways are common, and investigations are coordinated across state lines with appropriately licensed detectives.
Can an investigation in Kenner extend to River Ridge or St. Rose?
Yes. People rarely stay inside municipal lines. Work that starts in Kenner can continue in nearby communities such as River Ridge, St. Rose, Metairie, planned as one engagement and carried out by detectives licensed for each place the work goes.

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.
