Meet The Owners Experienced Investigators You Can Trust - It's all about integrity
Kimberly started her career in the field of investigations in 1994 with a large Michigan investigative firm, working in the Insurance Fraud Division. Kimberly quickly became recognized for her natural talent in the arena of investigative interviewing and within a matter of a few months was training employees regarding the secret of information gathering.
Furthermore, she was considered a stellar report writer and trained others in this regard as well. Kimberly took on numerous responsibilities that the firm had to offer, ranging from undercover operations to domestic investigations and surveillance. She was chosen for one (1) of two (2) available positions for the firm's client, the United States Postal Service, to exclusively conduct special investigations and surveillance. Kimberly was consistently rewarded with "Investigator of the Month" and "Investigator of the Year" awards throughout her ten (10) year employment with the aforementioned firm as well as earning several certificates of accomplishment, awards of achievement, and superior work ethics. She attended numerous seminars and training courses relating to investigations, executive protection, and management. She became licensed as an independent private detective in 1997.
As the firm that Kimberly worked for closed the doors to their Insurance Fraud Division in 2004, she recognized this as an opportunity to offer her services to various investigative firms. She conducted work in the industry as an Independent Contractor until she was sought by a western Michigan-based company to retain an Operations Manager position in 2005. Kimberly resigned from her position in 2009, wanting to produce an honest, down to earth “no hype, old-fashioned sleuth/gumshoe” style of investigation that would offer clients a product that cannot be matched with today’s newest technology, and exclusively began offering investigative services under Kove Investigations as encouraged by family, friends, and clients.
Michael Kove joined the investigative world in 1997, as a part-time investigator, working on weekends, also having a full-time job in the automotive industry. Michael had dedicated his free time and vacation days to learning the industry and has always been a team player. For the next twelve (12) years, he honed his skills regarding surveillance and over the years he has proven himself to be an exceptional private detective. In 2009, Michael and Kimberly decided to exclusively offer investigative services to clients who needed an honest team to work case sensitive files, without the schemes, shams and rip-offs.
Michael is a leader, manager, and instructor to the investigators of Kove Investigations. Mr. Kove takes his job seriously and he supervises employees and makes sure every case is managed with the utmost quality and integrity. If there is activity to be found on behalf of your subject, it will not pass the eyes of Mr. Kove and/or our team. You will NEVER find him or our employees “sleeping on the job” or missing important video opportunities. We clearly get results and are highly respected in the industry.
The Kove Investigations team has conducted thousands of insurance and domestic surveillance investigations as well as Recorded Statements and Alive and Well interviews.
