A.N. Investigations Inc.

AOE/COE Investigator — Southern California

Field Role  ·  Travel Required  ·  W-2, Hourly

Our AOE/COE caseload across Southern California keeps growing, and we need a seasoned field investigator who can own compensability investigations end to end — from the first interview to a report an attorney can hand straight to a judge.

About A.N. Investigations Inc.

A.N. Investigations Inc. is a California-licensed private investigation firm handling AOE/COE (arising out of employment / course of employment) workers’ compensation investigations for attorneys, insurance carriers, and third-party administrators throughout California. Our reports are built to hold up in litigation, and our field work reflects that standard.

About the Role:

You’ll cover assignments across Southern California — Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties — running AOE/COE compensability investigations from intake through final report. A year in, you’ll be trusted to take on complex, high-scrutiny claims with minimal oversight because your reports are consistently thorough, well-documented, and defensible.

What You’ll Do:

• Conduct AOE/COE compensability investigations for workers’ compensation claims.
• Conduct recorded interviews with claimants, witnesses, and other subjects
• Schedule and coordinate interviews and field assignments to meet case deadlines.
• Canvass locations to develop witnesses and gather supporting information
• Secure supporting documentation from public and private sources.
• Travel throughout Southern California — and occasionally beyond — for field assignments.
• Write clear, detailed, court-ready investigative reports on tight turnarounds
• Communicate case status and findings directly with claims examiners and adjusters.

What We’re Looking For

Required:

• At least 5 years of experience conducting AOE/COE / workers’ compensation investigations.
• Solid working knowledge of the California workers’ compensation claims process and AOE/COE standards.
• Willing and able to travel regularly throughout Southern California for assignments.
• Excellent report-writing skills — clear, detailed, and accurate under deadline.
• Strong interviewing skills, with sound judgment in the field.
• Strong self-management — consistently meets report deadlines and schedules interviews independently.
• Clear, professional communication with claims examiners and adjusters on case status and findings.
• Valid California driver’s license and a clean driving record.

Preferred:

Bilingual in Spanish

Own vehicle and reliable transportation for regular field travel
