authority
to make drug buys on undercover operations, unless sanctioned by a
police agency. If an undercover investigator purchased a
quantity of cocaine, then on the way home was stopped for a traffic
violation and the illegal substance was discovered, the investigator
would likely be charged with illegal possession. With all
drug-related matters, beyond simple reporting of observations, the
investigator must be sanctioned by a government agency. This
sanction gives the investigator greater ability to work on the
problem, but also places greater restrictions on the investigator's
activity. Additionally, the case then becomes a police matter
and control of the situation by the client is lost.

Undercover Reports:
Our undercover reports are
written in the third person for the protection of the
investigator. They are normally submitted to the client on a
weekly basis, with the client being updated by phone when time
sensitive information is developed. Reports cover the basic
concerns of the client, of course, but additionally include other
information which may be of interest. L.P.C., Ltd.
investigators are trained to write up anything they would want to
know if it they owned the client company. We avoid
writing the kind of "filler" which does nothing but
add to the length of reports. We assume our clients are more
interested in the quality of the information obtained than the
weight of the report. Reports which start each day with,
"No time clock irregularities were observed," are boring
and fall in the province of the amateur. In most cases, during
an undercover, or upon completion, we give the client the
opportunity to meet off premises with the undercover investigator
and an L.P.C., Ltd. supervisor to informally discuss the
operation. Often, at these meetings clients will have specific
questions that wouldn't normally be covered in the reports.
For example, clients frequently ask undercover investigators for
their opinions of various employees, based on firsthand observations
of these employees actions when supervision was not present.

Undercover Invoices:
Since it would be indiscreet
and possibly present risk to the investigator if invoices for
"undercover operations" were sent through a client's
accounts payable department, our invoices are generated by a
spurious vendor for services or goods applicable and normal in the
clients' business.
