What an investigator can actually do.
Blue Copper Investigations is a licensed Arizona private investigation agency and process serving company based in Goodyear, taking private investigations throughout the Phoenix area for people, attorneys and businesses, with Goodyear, Buckeye, Avondale, Waddell, Litchfield Park and Verrado as home ground.
Television makes private investigation look like breaking rules. Real investigation is the opposite: careful, lawful work that produces evidence you can actually use. Here is where the lines are in Arizona.
| A licensed investigator can | An investigator cannot |
|---|---|
| Watch and photograph someone in public places | Follow anyone onto private property |
| Search public records and licensed databases | Get phone or bank records by pretending to be someone |
| Find people who have moved (skip tracing) | Tap a phone or intercept calls, texts or email |
| Interview witnesses and take statements | Log in to someone else’s accounts or phone |
| Serve court papers and provide Proof of Service | Pose as a police officer or use police powers |
| Write reports and testify in court | Promise a result before looking at the facts |

Questions people ask
What does a private investigator do?
A private investigator gathers facts lawfully: surveillance in public places, records research, interviews, locating people and documenting what they find in a report you or your attorney can use. In Arizona, investigators must be licensed by the Department of Public Safety.
Is my first conversation with you confidential?
Yes. What you tell us stays with us, whether or not you hire us, and you decide how and when we contact you.
How much does a private investigator cost?
It depends on the kind of case and how much time it takes, so we do not publish prices. The first consultation is free, and we will explain the likely cost before any work begins.
How fast will someone get back to me?
Usually within 24 business hours of a case briefing, and sooner when a case is urgent. If it cannot wait, call (602) 456-1771.
Do you only work in Goodyear?
No. We take private investigations throughout the Phoenix area. Goodyear is home, and Buckeye, Avondale, Waddell, Litchfield Park and Verrado are our primary areas. Process serving covers the West Valley.
What is going on?

Not sure? That is fine. A case briefing or a phone call both work.
