What should a private investigator do if the named party on a document refuses to open the door?

Force entry to serve the document
Leave the document at the door
Contact the client and advise of the situation
Wait indefinitely for the person to appear

The correct answer is: Contact the client and advise of the situation

A private investigator should not force entry as it could be considered trespassing and could result in legal consequences. Leaving the document at the door is not a reliable method as it may not guarantee that the named party will receive the document. Waiting indefinitely for the person to appear is not a productive use of time and resources. Instead, contacting the client and advising them of the situation would allow them to make the decision and take appropriate action. This ensures that the process is conducted legally and ethically, while also keeping the client informed and involved.
