Mitchell Dubros is the founder of Investigation Hotline, a Toronto-based private investigation agency serving clients across Ontario since 1988.

Early Background
Before launching Investigation Hotline in 1988, Mitchell built a successful business called “Just-in-Case,” which pioneered bulk supply services in Canada and anticipated the model later popularized by giants like Costco.
His entrepreneurial background, combined with a strong interest in human behaviour and problem-solving, ultimately led him into the field of investigations.
Since launching Investigation Hotline in 1988, Mitchell has remained closely involved in the agency’s day-to-day operations and investigative strategy. His experience spans decades of evolving investigative methods, surveillance technologies, and intelligence-gathering techniques.

A Practical Approach to Investigations

Under his leadership, Investigation Hotline has developed a reputation for transparent communication, professionalism, and results-driven investigations designed to help clients make informed decisions.
