The Association of British Investigators can be traced back to 1913. In an unregulated sector, we are the foremost organisation in the UK. Our membership exceeds 400 professional investigators around the world who all meet our stringent membership requirements.
The Association of British Investigators leads the way in compliance through a self-regulating regime and tirelessly lobbies for regulation and recognition for the legitimate professional investigator.
We are the only representative body for professional investigators that is working with the Information Commissioner's Office to promote a self-regulatory system for professional investigators. The Law Society of England and Wales works with ABI, and our accredited members provide litigation support, process serving, and investigative services to the legal profession. With over 400 members across the globe, the ABI provides an extensive network of professional investigators, ensuring quality.
