Private Investigation in Houghton County
Houghton County and the Copper Country sit about as far north as Michigan goes, and a matter here turns on field work as much as on records. Investigative support is offered to counsel, to claims organizations and to businesses across the county, and directly to private clients. I'm Eugene Butler, a licensed private investigator working out of Flint, and I take cases throughout Houghton County and the Copper Country, from Houghton and Hancock to the smaller towns along the peninsula.
Criminal-defense investigation, civil litigation support and witness location are offered to attorneys with matters up on the Keweenaw, planned around the distance rather than around a convenient calendar. Background investigation is offered where a new tenant, a roommate, a business partner, or someone close to a family member near the university has to be checked against the record. Skip tracing and locating people are offered when someone has vanished — an old debtor, a relative, a witness — and the threads are pulled until where they actually are now is established.
Insurance and fraud investigation is offered where a reported loss warrants a documented look. Offered directly to individuals: child-custody documentation of conduct and conditions in a form family-law counsel can use in court, and confidential surveillance. Every matter stays confidential, none of it draws judgment, and what the evidence can and cannot show is stated straight. Call or text the Butler Investigations office at 810-513-0662 and describe what has to be established.
