Why Clients Choose Lance The PI
Trusted Investigator with Real-World Experience
I’ve spent decades working investigations across California. Before becoming a private investigator, I served as a police officer — so I know what it takes to collect facts, verify information, and deliver results that stand up in court.
Clients hire me because I’m reliable, local, and responsive. When you need answers, I get them.
Professional Investigation Services
Whether you need to identify a vehicle owner, trace a phone number, or find out who’s behind an email, I use professional databases and lawful methods to get accurate, confidential results. These are my most-requested services.
License Plate Lookup
Find the registered owner of a vehicle for a legitimate legal purpose. Results come from verified databases and are always compliant with the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act (DPPA).
People Search / Skip Tracing
