The Initial Consultation | Legitimate Interest in Investigations

Detective agencies such as Aaden Economic Detective Agency Berlin are not permitted, for plausible and sensible data protection reasons, to act for just anyone in every case.

An easy example is sufficient to illustrate this: assume a stalker is searching for their victim who has fled and concealed their address. The stalker therefore hires a detective agency to determine the victim’s current whereabouts and to continue pursuing their interests, which constitute a criminal offense. They consequently misuse the information provided by the detectives. To ensure that such a case does not occur in practice, it is the duty of every reputable detective agency, as Aaden expressly considers itself to be with its team of detectives, to verify the legitimate interest before accepting an assignment. If our Berlin detectives therefore ask you about your reasons and motives during the initial consultation, this is not mere curiosity, but rather the protection of the personal rights of potential victims. Here you will find a definition of legitimate interest.

Transparent Contract Structure and Fees

If a legitimate interest exists, Aaden Economic Detective Agency Berlin can take on your case. Our detectives will then define the exact terms of the contract together with you, meaning, for example, that you will be thoroughly informed about the expected time and personnel requirements, how our Berlin detectives plan the operation, and which case-specific information we require from you. In this way, we largely eliminate unpleasant surprises for both parties. We place the greatest importance on a transparent and detailed contract structure, as only comprehensive and comprehensible investigative work can lead to evidence that is admissible in court. In addition, our fees are generally fixed as set out in the contract and do not include any unpleasant surprises.
