Welcome to the World Association of Detectives

WAD makes every effort to ensure all members are properly licensed and insured, where required. WAD is not a regulatory agency. Every member is approved by the Executive Committee after notice to the membership. Members are required to validate their credentials annually upon membership renewal. When utilizing another member, members are encouraged to do their own due diligence when contracting any Investigative or Security Professional. Twice annually, WAD will publish in this guide all WAD members that are active, as a reference only. WAD disclaims any liability for any damages incurred in the contracting of investigative or security services of its independent members.
