Investigative
Team
During our first thirty years of business operations we have developed an
excellent investigative team. Ferguson Investigations & Security
Consultants has professional investigators with extensive Federal Law
Enforcement backgrounds, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation,
Central Intelligence Agency, Drug Enforcement Administration, Secret
Service, Customs and Homeland Security. We have also sought out local law enforcement
experience, including former Officers with the Houston Police Department
and the Harris County Sheriff’s Department. We approach every
investigation by matching the problem to be solved with the case agent
whose background and expertise best fits the situation.
In addition to our Houston Team, we have developed friendships and
associations with investigators not only throughout the U.S., but
worldwide. This allows us to develop information and handle investigative
leads, often without costly travel.

From initial
consultation to final report, all aspects of all investigations are
handled in complete and total secrecy. Case files are secured by alarm
system, lock and key and on a need-to-know basis, even among our
investigators.
When a company has been in business for twenty years and has an extensive
list of clients, it is inevitable that situations develop in which we have
two clients asking for our help that are on opposite sides of a business
or legal issue. For Ferguson Investigations & Security Consultants to
become involved represents a conflict of interest. Our policy is to
immediately stop the communication and convey to the client that a problem
exists and that Ferguson Investigations & Security Consultants cannot
become involved.

Databases
In recent years we have witnessed an explosion of information available through computer access to databases. Ferguson Investigations & Security Consultants has invested in state of the art computers and peripherals. Ferguson Investigations & Security Consultants is on line with numerous National, State and Local databases and we are constantly reviewing, evaluating and upgrading these services.
Public Records
Because of our involvement in one of the specialty areas, financial investigations and asset searches, we have the ability to research available public records to develop all the information available from these sources.
Confidential Sources
Sometimes
the most important information is only available through personal
contacts, friendships and trust developed over years of ethical business
dealings.
