Can’t I just run a cell phone records investigation myself?
There are online services that promise to give you records of phone calls, cellular phone records, telephone records, landline records, telephone bill records, cell phone bill records, and other types of phone call records for only a small fee. These services are highly controversial and make use of phone data brokers, call data, phone-call lists, who use pretexting and questionable or even illegal phone record searches to get their information. Not only are illegal phone record searches being brought to question, but many investigators have found that information gathered from these services is not very accurate. If you want legal and accurate information that will stand up in court, you cant rely on questionable services.
