Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

ABOUT US

Why Complete Consulting?

Because reputation matters. We are a boutique investigative agency trusted by attorneys, corporations, and private clients who expect more than just a report. Our work is precise, deliberate, and tailored to each client. Most of our business comes through referral, and we take that trust seriously. When you hire us, you get a dedicated team, not a case number.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. The agency is fully licensed, every investigator holds an active license in the states where they operate, and we carry professional liability coverage. We hold ourselves to the highest regulatory and ethical standards in the field.

What jurisdictions do you serve?

We are rooted in Kansas and Missouri, with deep familiarity across the greater Kansas City region. We know the local courts, the procedures, and the standards that make documentation hold up when it matters most.

Can you handle matters outside of Kansas and Missouri?

Yes. Through a curated network of vetted licensed partners, we coordinate multi-state investigations nationwide. Our standards travel with us regardless of where the work takes us.

Do you work with law enforcement?

When appropriate, yes. We maintain professional relationships at the local, state, and federal levels. Because we regularly operate in legally sensitive environments, we understand evidentiary standards and investigative protocols from the inside out.

SERVICES

What types of matters do you handle?

We focus on cases requiring discretion, lawful execution, and airtight documentation. Our core practice areas include:

  • Strategic surveillance
  • Family and custody investigations
  • Litigation support
  • Background and due diligence investigations
  • Asset and locate investigations
  • Corporate internal investigations
  • Fraud investigations
  • Open-source intelligence analysis

Do you accept every case?

No, and that is intentional. We are selective about the matters we take on. If a request falls outside our legal, ethical, or professional standards, we will say so plainly. Our reputation depends on the quality of the work we agree to do, not the volume.

What is Open-Source Intelligence ?

OSINT is the lawful collection and analysis of publicly available information. Our agency goes well beyond basic internet searching. We use advanced research methodologies and professional investigative tools to surface digital footprints, relationship networks, asset indicators, and behavioral patterns that most investigators simply miss.

Do you work with attorneys and corporate counsel?

Regularly. We support legal professionals with investigative strategy, witness interviews, surveillance, and intelligence analysis designed to strengthen case narratives. Many of our strongest client relationships are with firms who bring us in as a trusted extension of their team.

Do you offer ongoing or corporate investigative support?

Yes. We work with businesses that need sustained investigative resources, whether that means internal investigations, ongoing risk mitigation, or retained access to our intelligence capabilities. We become a quiet but essential part of how they operate.

OUR APPROACH

What is your investigative methodology?

Every matter begins with strategy. We define objectives, assess legal considerations, deploy appropriately, and document findings systematically. We do not chase leads reactively. We build a plan, execute it with precision, and deliver results that hold up under scrutiny.

How do you ensure evidence holds up in court or legal proceedings?

We document findings thoroughly, preserve metadata where applicable, maintain proper chain of-custody standards, and produce structured reports built for legal review. Our work is designed to withstand examination because that is exactly the environment it will face.

How discreet are your operations?

Discretion is not a feature we offer. It is foundational to how we work. Surveillance and investigative activity are conducted with professional tradecraft designed to minimize exposure while maintaining complete lawfulness. Your matter stays your matter.

Will the subject know they are being investigated?

Our planning and execution are designed to keep operations quiet. No investigator can promise perfect invisibility, but we apply real tradecraft, not guesswork, to minimize any risk of detection.

What investigative actions are prohibited by law?

We operate strictly within legal boundaries. We do not intercept communications, access accounts without authorization, use restricted government databases, enter property unlawfully, or impersonate law enforcement. Illegal conduct destroys cases and credibility. We will not participate in it under any circumstances.

WORKING WITH US

How does pricing work?

Our pricing is scoped to your specific matter. Because every investigation is different, fees are based on complexity, required resources, and anticipated research time. Some engagements require a retainer before work begins, while others are structured differently depending on scope. We will always be transparent about what your investment covers before you commit. What we guarantee is not an outcome. It is professionalism, lawful execution, and our full attention to your matter.

How quickly can an investigation begin?

Many matters can begin promptly after consultation and agreement on scope. Time-sensitive situations are evaluated individually and we will always be direct with you about realistic timelines.

What should I do (and not do) before contacting you?

Do not confront the subject, do not attempt to gather evidence on your own, and do not discuss the matter with people outside your legal team. Premature action can compromise an investigation before it begins. Come to us first and let us build the right approach from the start.

What happens during the initial consultation?

We listen carefully. We assess your objectives, evaluate the legal landscape, and determine whether your matter is one we can take on. If we can help, we will outline a clear strategic path forward. If we cannot, we will tell you honestly. Either way, your time is respected.

What information should I bring to the consultation?

The more context you can share, the better. Relevant background details, timelines, known identifiers, and a clear sense of your objectives help us assess feasibility and scope quickly and accurately.

How is client confidentiality protected?

All communications and findings are handled with strict discretion. Sensitive materials are managed professionally and shared only through appropriate, secure channels. Your privacy is not a policy we follow. It is a standard we hold.

Will I receive a formal report?

Yes. Every engagement concludes with a structured investigative report summarizing findings, supported by photographic, video, or documentary evidence where applicable. Our reports are written for clarity and built for legal review.

Do your investigators testify in court?

Yes. Our investigators are available to provide sworn testimony regarding findings and methodology when a matter proceeds to litigation.

Will I receive updates during an investigation?

Yes. Communication expectations are established at the outset of every engagement. You will receive appropriate updates without compromising operational security. You will never be left wondering where things stand.

OUR COMMITMENT

What defines Complete Consulting?

We are a small agency that does exceptional work. We take on fewer cases so we can give each one the attention it deserves. We operate with discipline, discretion, and integrity, and we bring genuine intelligence capabilities to every matter we accept. When the details matter, so does who you trust to find them.
