At Dukes Investigations and Consulting, our private investigators have an observant eye and an analytical mind that can be applied to a variety of cases.
How long does a background check take?
The depth of a background and circumstances for the information needed will determine the time frame of receiving the results. Contact us today to discuss the details of a background check.
How long does a private investigation take?
The length of a private investigation is different for each case because each case is unique. Call and speak with one of our investigators with basic information about your case so that we will be able to determine a better time frame for your investigation.

Private investigators are required in the state of South Carolina to obtain and maintain a PI license issued and regulated by our State Law Enforcement Division (SLED). Our firm employs private investigators with both law enforcement experience and legal experience.
