His appearance was clean, cool and deliberately ambiguous. Under the sanctuary of his aviators, his eyes silently scanned the room. He looked like a cross between Mike from Breaking Bad and Donald Sutherland. As soon as he walked into Supercompressor HQ, we knew we had found our man.
Michael McKeever is a Manhattan-based, third-generation private detective who’s been in the business for more than three decades—specializing in surveillance and being an overall mystery-tinged badass. We asked him everything we’ve ever wanted to know about the profession and about his wildest stories working on the streets of New York. The answers, should you choose to believe them, will paint a thoroughly accurate portrait of a professional PI.
It sounds dramatic. Missing persons. It can be, but often it is client looking to reunite with a long lost friend or even a family member. Recently I had a request from a client who wanted to find his half brother. He had not seen him since their parents broke up 14 years ago. It was not an easy case but I kept at it. Finally, I told the client; “call this person, I think she should know, the answer and if I call they may be nervous. Besides, its your brother you are looking for. They should be sympathetic”. He made the call and it was the big breakthrough we were looking for. He was so happy!

Sometimes people assume the private eye biz is all about infidelity. But, they are wrong. Some private investigators never do “private cases” instead, relying on attorneys or insurance companies or workman’s compensation work.
I have done quite a few cases that defy description. Like when a client buys his son a route business and suspects the former owner is stealing back his old customers, in violation of their agreement. How does the client find this out except by surveillance?
Once I had a client who had a similar request. He owned a company that sold food products to stores. He had salespeople that worked for the company and there was one, in particular, he wondered about. He was seldom available for meetings. He seemed too busy for the meager accounts he controlled. He seemed…shifty.
We followed him for several days. He did visit customers and seemed legit until one day we followed him to a nearby town where he was seen opening up his own store! That explained his frequent absences. It explained his bountiful requests for samples. And it explained his need to sell to a few customers at near cost. It was for his own business. He was fired.

Everyone has their own secrets. But when these secrets can cause harm to people, it becomes a problem. If you think that someone you know is hiding something from you, such as a spouse having an affair or a sibling lying about a property dispute, you need to know the truth to set you free. There are a number of investigation services that a private detective can do for you and provide you with accurate information to help solve your case.
At Michael McKeever Private Investigator, Michael has over three decades of experience delivering truth to our clients with honesty and proof. Whatever the nature of the case you have, nothing is too big or small for Michael. You can rely on us for confidentiality and we promise that whatever information you share will remain only with us. We provide our services to NY, New York, Manhattan, NYC, and surrounding areas. If you are from any of these areas, contact us for more information.
Here are
some more reasons why you should hire professional investigations services:
Professional skills
A private
investigator has the skill to use his talents acquired from a variety of
fields. You may think that you can investigate someone on your own or simply
tell some friends to do the job for you. However, you might not have the necessary
skills to gather information on certain matters, and your friends might
backstab you in the end. With a private investigator, you never have to worry
about confidentiality because your secrets are always between you and the
private investigator only.
Legal issues
A private
investigator has the license to testify in multiple states. If you have an
issue that needs to be dragged to court, you can get the best evidence from a
private investigator. They are better equipped to deal with these situations
and will provide the information gathered in a clear and concise manner before
the judge.

you are interested in our services, contact us today.

They hire the investigator in hopes of coming up with something significant enough to reach the tipping point. If it happens, it’s a fait accompli.
If nothing damning is found, some clients feel relieved.
However, others can still feel unsatisfied. No relationship is perfect, but sometimes the client should move on as the status quo is just not right for them -even without the straw that broke the camels back.
