Exhibit A
Private Investigators work in Tacoma
Tacoma searches for private investigation work in steady, modest volume, and the firms serving it are mostly small owner operators rather than national franchises. The demand splits between personal matters, such as background checks and domestic work, and business matters, such as process serving, surveillance and pre employment checks around the Port of Tacoma and the industrial corridor along the tideflats. Pierce County's court and legal community generates repeat commercial searches, and the surrounding military population around Joint Base Lewis McChord adds another steady stream. Paid search in this trade in Tacoma is thin, which means the organic results carry most of the weight for people looking for an investigator.
