Impartial InvestigationsPrivate Investigators Scotland – Impartial Investigations

Introductory Section
Impartial Investigations are experienced private investigators (PIs) with detectives based in Inverness, Glasgow, and Leicestershire. We work for individuals, businesses, and solicitors throughout the UK. In Britain, private investigators are also known as private detectives or enquiry agents.

Why choose us?
One of our partners began his career in the 1980s, when investigations relied on limited databases and no internet. Today, he combines decades of experience with modern, hi-tech tracing tools.
We deliver professional, discreet, and cost-effective solutions to both private and commercial problems — always operating strictly within the law.

Client-Focused Approach
Your needs are our priority. When you contact us, you’ll be assigned a dedicated Case Manager who will listen sympathetically and clearly outline the best course of action.

Missing Persons & Long-Lost Family Tracing
Thanks to our Full Membership of the Association of British Investigators (ABI), we have access to specialist databases that help locate people who have lost touch with their families — sometimes for many years.
We don’t rely on databases alone. We still carry out traditional legwork: contacting former flatmates and neighbours, visiting addresses, knocking on doors, sending professional letters, and providing witness statements where needed. Our goal is to deliver the most up-to-date information possible.
Reconnecting families and delivering messages from loved ones can end years of heartache.

Additional Services
We also specialise in tracing debtors, repossessing vehicles, conducting background checks, and handling serious workplace or commercial complaints.
Visit our Services page to see the full range of private, workplace, and commercial investigations we offer across Scotland and the UK.

We May Work for Free on Some Cases
Unlike most agencies, we occasionally take on long-standing or unresolved cases without charge. If we believe we can help bring closure or truth to a family, we may offer our services pro bono.
If you’re stuck on a case and not making progress, please get in touch — we’d be happy to discuss whether we can assist.
