About ATB Investigations

A professional, fact-focused approach

Anita Tourisia's path to private investigation began in Indonesia, where she became a child singing star at age six and a celebrity by age nine. In 1974, she came to the United States seeking the freedom to build a life away from the intense public attention she had experienced from an early age.

While pursuing singing and acting opportunities in California, Anita declined to participate in what she describes as the entertainment game. In 1975, LAPD Sergeant Joe Ward recruited her to perform undercover work for the department. She served in that role for approximately one year before returning to music and touring with a cover band throughout the Midwest, Alaska, and Canada until 1983.

As musical styles changed, Anita chose a new professional direction. She attended a private detective academy and began her investigative career in 1991, handling undercover assignments, surveillance, and witness interviews. She later trained numerous investigators, including Paul Blaum, who became an accomplished surveillance investigator.

Anita and Paul married and built an S-Corporation that served private clients and accepted subcontracted assignments from investigation companies. Today, ATB Investigations brings that extensive field-investigation background together with cybersecurity capabilities, supporting modern cases involving both physical and digital evidence.

Experience and approach

An experienced female private investigator

Clients often contact an investigator during stressful or uncertain circumstances. Anita provides a direct and respectful point of contact, listens carefully to the situation, and helps define the factual questions an investigation may be able to answer.

01

A practical approach to every assignment

Each engagement begins by reviewing the client’s objective, available information, urgency, and intended use of the findings. The proposed scope is based on lawful investigative methods and realistic expectations. No result is guaranteed, and no assignment justifies unauthorized access, deception that violates the law, or an implication of police authority.

Confidential communication

Sensitive information is requested only when relevant to evaluating or performing an assignment. Investigation services are not legal advice, and clients should involve qualified counsel when a matter requires legal interpretation or litigation strategy.

Private Investigation FAQs

01Is a consultation with a female private investigator confidential?

ATB Investigations treats consultation information discreetly and requests only information relevant to evaluating the matter. Specific questions about legal privilege should be discussed with qualified counsel.

02What types of matters can a female investigator handle?

Depending on the facts and lawful scope, work may include surveillance, background research, family-related fact gathering, fraud inquiries, online research, locate investigations, and digital-evidence matters.

03Can I be guaranteed that a female investigator handles every task?

Anita Tourisia provides the primary client contact. Assignment details depend on scope, safety, location, required expertise, and availability and should be confirmed during consultation.

04What should I prepare for the initial consultation?

Prepare a concise timeline, relevant names, available documents or communications, and the specific question you need the investigation to address. Do not obtain information unlawfully.

05Can a private investigator provide legal advice?

No. An investigator can collect and document facts within an authorized scope but does not replace an attorney or provide legal strategy.

06How much does a private investigation cost?

Cost depends on scope, time, location, required methods, and complexity. ATB Investigations reviews the objective before discussing an appropriate scope and fee arrangement.

07How long does an investigation take?

Timing varies with the objective, availability of records or subjects, and changing case circumstances. No responsible investigator can promise a universal completion time.

08Can a private investigator guarantee results?

No. An investigator can pursue an agreed lawful scope and document findings but cannot guarantee that evidence will confirm a belief or produce a desired outcome.

09How can I verify a private investigator’s license?

Ask for the investigator’s license number and verify it with the appropriate state licensing authority. ATB Investigations identifies its California private investigator license as PI #24646.

10Can investigation findings be used in court?

Investigation findings may assist counsel or a legal matter when collected and documented appropriately, but admissibility is decided under applicable law and court rules. Coordinate with your attorney before work begins.
