When Prevention
Becomes a Case
GSP provides prevention education, preparedness resources, and general safety guidance. Some situations require formal investigative action. When yours does, CPIA's licensed investigators are available for a confidential case assessment.
Request a Confidential Case AssessmentIf anyone is in immediate danger, contact 911 immediately.
Submission of a case assessment request does not automatically establish an investigator-client relationship. Formal investigations require case acceptance, a written agreement, an approved scope of work, and separate investigative fees. CPIA operates strictly within Virginia DCJS licensing and applicable law.
You May Need a Licensed Investigator When:
These situations typically require formal investigative action — documentation standards, evidence handling, and legal defensibility that go beyond prevention education.
A child or vulnerable person is missing
You suspect grooming, exploitation, or predatory conduct
Someone is being stalked, threatened, or repeatedly harassed
A suspicious person or identity must be lawfully verified
Fraud or deception has caused actual financial loss
Evidence must be collected, analyzed, or formally documented
Witness interviews, field inquiries, records research, or surveillance may be required
Law enforcement or an attorney needs an organized investigative report
