I approached Cowan Investigations from out of state with a delicate situation that needed to be handled in NJ and Liz made me feel at ease and in good hands immediately! Both Liz and Bob reviewed my case and got back to be the same day … More with a great price and additional suggestions to make sure I was satisfied with the planning they had come up with. It was important to me for all parties involved in my case to feel comfortable and Liz and Bob definitely fit the bill! They took the time to gather all the information needed and completely exceeded my expectations. I originally chose to call Cowan Investigations because of the professional website and Bob's credentials, but it was the personal care and service that cemented their agency for me. Thanks again Liz!!

Worked with Bob during his tenure as the former Chief of the Jersey City Police Department. All I can say is that you will be getting what you pay for with this results driven company.
A leader within the industry with … More over 34+ years in law enforcement as well as a proven track record of accomplishments in the field. If I needed a private investigator, Cowan Investigations would be my first choice, hands down.

I have been married for over 25 years, 2 years ago things just started not feeling right, I started having suspicions that my husband was cheating. I felt trapped, I was embarrassed to talk about it with anyone. I put up with feeling … More this way for two years.
I began researching private investigators because I was fed up with being lied to and deceived, talked to like I was crazy. I called a few investigators but I did not feel comfortable, I felt like I was talking to used car salesmen. Just before I was going to give up I called Cowan Investigations. From the minute I began speaking to Liz Cowan I began to feel comfortable, she was very genuine, caring and knowledgeable on how to proceed. Liz set up a call with Bob who I immediately could tell was very experienced and knew how to proceed.
Over a 4 day period Bob and Joe uncovered the evidence I needed to confront the lies and other deceptions I was subjected to, which let me make the decisions I needed to make for myself. Above all I was able to regain my self respect by getting the proof I needed.
From time Liz answered the phone until Bob and Joe finished the investigation, I was overwhelmed by the professionalism and caring they displayed towards me and the investigation.
Thanks again Liz, Bob and Joe, you’re the best

If there was a way to give this Gentleman ten stars, I would. Don't be mistaken by the use of the word "gentleman" he is a hound and he zeros in on the minutia of the investigation. He is a real detective with a extensive … More background in law enforcement.
I thought that I had a really good understanding of my case and then I hired Bob Cowan. He exposed so many things that were hidden in plain sight that it blew my mind and consequently gave me much needed peace of mind.
From the time he took my case, he kept in constant contact with me. All throughout, he explained things in way that I could understand. He was reassuring, professional and the best guy for the job!
I am in the unenviable position of knowing what I am saying. It can and is, at times, overwhelming when you have to hire a private investigator. This usually arises from a traumatic experience and the reason why you should surround yourself with someone who knows what this experience fells like.
I trust Bob Cowan and hope he continues to help others, like he helped me. I am grateful to have been referred to him! Thank you, Sir.
And yes, I would be remiss if I didn't thank his wife Liz. She took my initial phone call and she knew I needed his help. She was warm and kind. Just what you need when you are faced with these situations...Thank you, Liz.

I recently had the need to use a private investigator. After looking at several options, I decided to call Cowan Investigations. The decision to call them turned out to be one of the best decisions I ever made. I really like the fact that … More Mr. Cowan has a law enforcement background and is a former Chief of Police for Jersey City. After my first conversation with Liz Cowan I knew I had called the right people. She made me feel very comfortable when I answered all the questions she needed to get the facts regarding a very complicated situation. Liz is very thorough, caring, and very professional and usually available when I had questions. Liz and Bob make you, their priority. I NEVER had to worry if Mr. Cowan would be working on my case at the time I was promised. He was always at the location, on time, very descrete and went way above and beyond my expectations. I was informed of the progress on a daily basis and over a period of 4-5 days, had enough evidence to prove my case. The reports are very professionally written with dates and time stamped. It says a lot when my lawyer called Bob Cowan and complimented him on the great report he gave to my lawyer, to take to court. I feel the evidence gathered by Cowan Investigations and presented to the judge, by my lawyer, made a huge difference in the judge's decision. I met Mr. Cowan and shook his hand after I won the case. I highly recommend Cowan Investigations and will definitely use them again if needed. Thank you for all your hard work, you are the best!
What questions should you ask a New Jersey Private Investigator before you retain that investigator

What questions should you ask a New Jersey Private Investigator before you retain that investigator
Ninety five percent of all people will never need the services of a New Jersey Private Investigator, however, once you do, it is often confusing on what steps you should take in order to retain the right private investigator to work your case. One of the first suggestions I would make is to find out as much as you can about New Jersey Private investigations in general, as well as the specific investigator you might be interested in hiring. To obtain a general understanding of the rules and regulations as well as the qualifications New Jersey Private Investigators operate under, a great go to resource is the New Jersey State Police Private Detective Unit Website, this unit licenses and regulates all private investigators in the State of New Jersey.
http://www.njsp.org/private-detective/private-detective-rules.shtml
It is important I discuss certain information you should obtain from the private investigator you are interested in retaining.

By entering the name of the private investigation firm, you should be directed to the page of google reviews (if any) of the company you are interested in hiring.
Even google reviews can be falsified, I will relate a funny story regarding this. Since I constantly update and improve my website I often see other private investigator websites to see what my competitors are doing. Back in 2016, I noticed a local firm which had one really, really nasty review, my perception of the review was it was from an angry person, but in the scheme of things I would not have given it much weight if I had been searching for an investigator. That one review referencing the particular investigator remained on google all by itself up until the late summer or early fall of 2017. Almost a year later the owner of the company responded to the negative review with a rambling four paragraph response defending himself/herself, I mean the response was way over the top. Within the next six weeks the investigators website received about seven or eight five-star reviews; reading the reviews it was quite obvious the investigator posted praises for his/her services on google. The point I am making is read these reviews with a healthy amount of skepticism.

Most importantly, stay away from those New Jersey Private Investigators who claim unrealistic results, remember, “if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is”!!!
