our process

The 4-Step Investigative
Approach.

Diagnosing Before Prescribing

We begin by truly listening. A Utah private investigator should give you time to explain your case and clarify your objectives before offering any solutions. We’ll ask follow-up questions and repeat your goals back to ensure complete understanding.

Clear Explanation of the Investigative Approach

Once we understand your case, we’ll outline a precise, experience-based strategy. PI work doesn’t have to be confusing — we explain every step in plain language and focus on what will actually work (and stand up in court).

Exact Pricing with No Billing Surprises

We’ll provide a transparent quote upfront. From hourly rates to travel time and expenses, you’ll know exactly what to expect — verbally and in writing.

Under-Promise, Over-Deliver

We don’t make guarantees we can’t keep. No honest private investigator should promise results — but we do guarantee confidentiality, professionalism, and execution of the agreed investigative strategy.

areas we serve

Western Investigations is a Statewide Private Investigation Firm.

Western Investigations is a Statewide Private Investigation Firm. For nearly 30 years, our agency has worked hard to establish a statewide network of licensed private investigators in almost every corner of our great state.

Utah is a unique state with countless small towns and many growing urban cities. The Wasatch Mountains in the north, the world renowned salt flats in the west and the red dirt deserts of Southern Utah make our state incredibly beautiful and diverse.

Understanding this state and it’s incredibly unique people, is vital to running a successful private investigation agency. We are based in Salt Lake City but our network of local private investigators allows us to work every case from a local point of origin.

The firm was originally founded by Utah Private Investigator Patrick Schneemann in 1996. Mr. Schneemann graduated from the University of Utah in 1992 and spent the next 4 years working as a surveillance investigator specializing in workers’ compensation fraud. After acquiring his Private Investigator’s License in 1996, he established the agency and began conducting investigations throughout the State of Utah as a sole proprietor.

Mr. Schneemann conducted investigations throughout the state and logged hundreds of thousands of miles on his vehicle. The wide variety of cases that we have worked over the years has contributed greatly to the successful outcome of our investigations. There is no replacement for experience.

Over the past 29 years, the private investigator industry in Utah has gone through tremendous change. Technology, the internet and free flow of information has revolutionized the PI industry here in the state of Utah. Western Investigations has been a part of that revolution.

Our success stems from our ability to manage the growth in services along with a growing network of licensed private investigators throughout the state of Utah.

From St. George to Logan or from Vernal to Wendover, Western Investigations has got you covered. We can handle the assignment anywhere in the state. We succeed in Utah because we are based in Utah. And, most importantly, all cases are billed locally.
