"Respecter" Nabatova Détective privé à propos de lui-même et de son travail

[Детективное агентство Волгоград]

“The life of a detective hero and the life of a real private detective differ in many ways: for example, endless chases, shootouts, villains trying to take over the world - fiction, and thank God,” admitted Alexander Nabatov in one of our conversations preceding this interview. The reality and imagination of many detective writers are united by two very important ideas, the following of which allowed Alexander to lead the most successful detective agency in Volgograd. First: a good detective is always a multifaceted personality, a symbiosis of a logical, creative and spiritual principle. The second is that law enforcement agencies often need help, and this is not said to reproach the security guards, but it has always been that way, regardless of time and place, be it London of the late 19th century or modern Volgograd.

- Alexander, why did you choose such a rare and difficult profession?
- Extensive experience in law enforcement and the desire for more complete self-realization prompted the idea of creating this organization.
- Did you dream about a detective story in childhood?
“He was a terrible bully, but dreamed of becoming either a military or a policeman,” it turned out both.
- When the Respect agency was created, remember how it all began, what were the difficulties at that time?
- March 2007. I opened the agency completely on my own. People who were invited to participate as sponsors refused. These people turned out to be skeptics: they alluded to the fact that Volgograd - not Moscow, would not do it. When everything started spinning, they wanted to participate. And it was just a little needed - to purchase primary equipment and obtain a license. The first orders went, word of mouth worked - acquaintances and former colleagues became his "presenters". Later, when the agency grew qualitatively and quantitatively, it began to give centralized advertising. There weren’t much difficulties, there were no competitors either - they still aren’t.
“But I heard the opposite ...”
“We have single detectives, and no one works on an organization-wide scale — at least I don’t know those.” Given our level of professional support, connections and experience, there are currently no competitors.
- Remember your first customer?
- It was an economic order - people prepared a contract for a large amount, and they needed information about the company with which they enter into contractual obligations. Having done our work, we categorically recommended the client not to cooperate with these persons. Unfortunately, the customer did not listen to us, as a result, he lost decent money. Then he asked for help to return this amount, and we partially helped.
- What resources should a detective agency have to quickly and efficiently resolve client issues?
- The key point is the ability to quickly receive various information. This requires certain connections, skills and experience. In the Respect agency, half of the cases are solved from the office thanks to the phone, the Internet and various databases, which significantly affects the efficiency and speed of, for example, search cases. I also have enough employees, professionals with a capital letter, who contribute to resolving issues, for which they have to work more in the "fields".
- Who comes to the agency with what problems?
- Today we work in all directions. When we first opened, the lion's share of clients came on family issues, in particular marital infidelity. There are many of them now. A certain employee who successfully conducts such matters is assigned to this area. But do not reduce everything here to treason. Parents often need information about where and with whom their child spends their time.
The main orders are of an economic nature. Checking competitiveness, tracking the market and its participants, etc. If you want to know who can be a hypothetical obstacle to your business and to know everything about these people - please. In general, an agency was created to solve such problems. Another area is official investigations in organizations. We reveal, forgive for this word, villains who everywhere seek their own profit and do not hesitate to turn things around behind the head. They are also often asked to find eyewitnesses to various incidents or missing persons.
- Is it possible to find, for example, a stolen car?
- Let's just say: really look. There are times when it is not possible to find the necessary information, no one is safe from this. We never guarantee a 100% result. I always tell clients that I guarantee the quality of work. The fact that any business we undertook will work to the fullest is our principle, our reputation, and I treasure this very much. And to promise a 100% result is, to put it mildly, incorrect in relation to the customer.
- And what tools and methods do you use in your work?
- Speaking of tools, we have very good technical support. We use everything that is allowed by law. For example, a lie detector is an excellent method of obtaining reliable information. Recently, its use has allowed to solve a high-profile case. We worked on theft; at one enterprise there was a fact of major theft. After checking the staff at the polygraph, there were doubts about the identification of the culprit. Again, I had to engage in communication: they turned to Moscow to confirm our conclusion. In the end, we were right. Speaking of methods, we must also understand that we are working in a complex. We collect information about people, analyze the facts and compare them with the available data.
- How can a client manage the information received? Can he use her in court?
- Only if the information fits into the created system of laws. This is also discussed with the client. Suppose we can give the client certain information, but we know that the court will not take it into account. This is discussed with the customer in advance, at the very beginning of the investigation. Some information can be obtained, for example, during a survey of witnesses. Then we can ask the court to call them for a hearing.
- At the end of the conversation, share: how is the life of a private detective different from the life of an operative?
- Two main, key points! The first is the financial component. The cost of our services enables employees of the agency to earn decent money. And the second point is that I can do what I want. If a client comes to me, and for some reason I don’t want to do his business, I will refuse. And if they gave me material in the civil service, do it, look for whoever stole from her grandmother two of her favorite sheets from the attic - Carlson or someone else.
- What are your plans?
- I want to develop what is now - just be a good leader and solve those questions that people want to know the answers to.
