Due Diligence - Wikipedia
Due diligence is the investigation or exercise of care that a reasonable business or person is normally expected to take before entering into an agreement or contract with another party or an act with a certain standard of care.
It can be a legal obligation, but the term will more commonly apply to voluntary investigations. A common example of due diligence in various industries is the process through which a potential acquirer evaluates a target company or its assets for an acquisition. The theory behind due diligence holds that performing this type of investigation contributes significantly to informed decision making by enhancing the amount and quality of information available to decision makers and by ensuring that this information is systematically used to deliberate on the decision at hand and all its costs, benefits, and risks.
Business transactions and corporate finance
Due diligence takes different forms depending on its purpose:
The examination of a potential target for merger, acquisition, privatization, or similar corporate finance transaction normally by a buyer. (This can include self due diligence or “reverse due diligence”, i.e. an assessment of a company, usually by a third party on behalf of the company, prior to taking the company to market.)
A reasonable investigation focusing on material future matters.
An examination being achieved by asking certain key questions, including, how do we buy, how do we structure an acquisition, and how much do we pay?
An investigation of current practices of process and policies.
An examination aiming to make an acquisition decision via the principles of valuation and shareholder value analysis.

Using a private investigator is perfectly legal, providing that you choose a professional and ethical investigator or agency that follow the rule of the law, based on the country they operate in.
Private investigators employ the use of a variety of professional tools, equipment and know-how to obtain the information they require. The way in which information is gathered will depend completely on the nature of the case that is being investigated.
The price you can expect to pay for a private investigator to take on your case will be entirely dependent on the nature and extent of your enquiry. Factors that will play a part in the cost include the number of operatives that will be required to carry out the investigation, mileage undertaken, and the tools, equipment and resources required.
Typical costs for common investigations are:
Surveillance – £45 – £75 per hour
Tracing people – £150 – £350
Background checks – £55 – £95 per hour
GPS tracking – £300 – £800
