Some companies are making a few mistakes when hiring a phone or mobile forensics. While mobile forensic may be a part of commercial or private investigation work, many would assume or convince that they need one. Others think that they can do it themselves without consulting the right person with expertise and knowledge. However, in reality, they don't have an established plan or goal yet that they need, so be wary of what you need to know first when paying for commercial phone forensics

Here are some common mistakes to avoid when hiring a mobile forensic service.

Not doing any research on the firm.

When hiring mobile or phone forensics for your business, consider doing research homework on the company you're planning to hire. Your research doesn't have to be too complicated. See if the company's name appears on Google's search result and if they have sufficient info such as their background, years of experience, client reviews and contact info. It is a red flag if a company lacks sufficient information to know more about them.

Not knowing the goals for the investigation.

Before contacting a mobile forensic firm or private investigator in Singapore, you need to have a clear goal in mind about what needs to be achieved in the investigation. Avoid leaving anything to the investigator and assume they know about your problem at first glance. Before hiring one, always have a clear idea, what the investigation should accomplish before anything takes place. 

Get the quote

There are a few instances where a forensic firm may not discuss the pricing or quote on hand with their prospective client. Ask about the pricing or estimate a quote for the investigation. If they aren't able to provide any clear answer, it's likely a red flag as they might change their charge throughout the course of the investigation.
