How to pick the right Specialist

Choosing your genealogy professional is a very personal decision. Communication is the best way to find out who the perfect fit is for your case. Ask questions; make sure that you understand exactly what is included in each bid. Prices will often vary so find out what each bidder has in mind for you. Sometimes a lower bid will denote that the cost just covers the beginning stage of your project or it could mean that the specialist lives very near the archive in question (research only) so they can afford to do it for less. At times, a specialist might submit a cost which at first glance seems higher than others however, it very well may include much more service so ultimately, that bidder might be your best bet in the long run.
