International investigations for attorneys and insurers
When a claimant, witness, asset or opposing party is outside the United States, Terrell Miceli Investigations manages the investigation from assignment to report. Since 1985 we have handled 40,000+ cases for insurers, TPAs, SIU teams and defense counsel, nationwide and internationally, coordinated from our headquarters in Slidell, Louisiana.
What we handle abroad
Surveillance and activity checks on claimants living or traveling abroad
Background investigations and due diligence on individuals and companies
Locates of claimants, witnesses and parties
Social media and connection investigations, preserved for use as evidence
Witness and claimant investigations, including interviews and statements where local law allows
Alive-and-well and identity verification checks
Accident and scene investigations, including offshore and marine (HUET-certified investigators)
How we work with counsel
Attorney-directed engagements: for litigation matters we can be retained by and report directly to counsel.
Reports go only to the retaining attorney or claims professional.
Detailed written reports with time-stamped HD video and photos.
Local-law compliance: each assignment is scoped to what local law permits; where an activity is not lawful, we say so before work begins.

Frequently asked questions
Can you investigate a claimant who has moved abroad? Yes. We scope surveillance, activity checks, locates and social media work to what the local law of that country allows.
Will the evidence be usable in a US proceeding? We deliver detailed reports and video for use by counsel; admissibility is decided by the court, and we work with counsel on what is needed.
Can the engagement run through our law firm? Yes, we accept attorney-directed engagements and report directly to counsel.
How fast can you start? Our case management team responds within 24 hours; start dates abroad depend on the country and staffing.
