Hi, I’m
JULIA ANGELETTI
Hallandale,FL
Summary
I am a Linguist through education and am fluent in four languages ( Russian, English, French and Tatar, which belongs to the Turkic Group of Languages). I currently am studying Chinese Mandarin and pursuing State and the Federal Russian-English/English-Russian Court Interpreter Certification.
I have over 5 years of investigative experience, including experience in financial investigations. I worked on numerous criminal defense cases, including organized crime and RICO, homicide, robbery, assault, drug possession, drug distribution, shoplifting, grand theft, possession of a firearm, unauthorized use of credit card, identity theft, unauthorized use of PII, cybercrimes, embezzlement, money laundering, fraud (not limited to insurance fraud and identity fraud) and other cases, requiring financial investigative experience. Most of the assignments I work on have a financial aspect to them. I have also worked on Marchman Act cases where I successfully executed 95% of them to a positive result (Marchman Act Cases are mandated by the court to an involuntary commitment of a drug addict/alcoholic to a rehab facility - there is also help given to the families). I am especially proud of being able to help and improve multiple people's lives. Those types of cases involve skip-tracing, undercover work at times, subject location, surveillance and collaboration with law enforcement agents, and all have an aspect of danger to them.
I worked on civil cases for the plaintiff and for the defense, including insurance, family law and personal injury. I performed criminal defense investigations for federal felony and misdemeanor offenses. I assisted attorneys with all aspects of case work to include but not limited to the following; case preparation, conducting financial investigations, gathering intelligence via various methods of surveillance and, at times undercover work; witness locating and interviewing, acted as liaison between staff attorneys and subject matter experts, performed legal and factual research by both computer and traditional methods, using different software and tools, document locating, scene photography, evidence location and collection, preparation of investigative reports and Russian-English-French translations of text, as well as simultaneous translations and real-time interpretations (English-Russian/ Russian-English).
Previously, I have worked as a professional model and actress and in 2012 I obtained the following certifications: Fitness Instructor, and Nutrition Coach. Once I obtained the certifications, I started training people to achieve their health and fitness goals. I also have over ten years of experience in sports, entertainment and the fitness industry.
In 2017, I started my internship at Frank A. Murphy Investigations, as a private investigator and successfully completed my PI internship in March of 2019. Upon completion of internship I've obtained Class C Private Investigator License. Subsequently, in 2022 I have obtained Class A Private Investigative Agency license.

Bio
I was born in the former Soviet Union and raised in Kazan, Russia in the family of attorneys. Since a young age I have been an avid reader, represented my school in Chess Competitions and was found to be gifted in learning languages. I practiced sports my whole life, including ballet and martial arts. In Spring of 2004, I graduated High School specialized in teaching Linguistics and French Language and Literature. Before graduating High School, I placed first in a City Linguistics Competition (French Language) and got an award from the Ministry of Education, which guaranteed me full scholarship to the most prestigious University, specializing in teaching Foreign Languages. Then, in Autumn of the same year (2004), I got in Tatar State University of Humanitarian Arts and Pedagogical Sciences (now Kazan Federal University), Faculty of Linguistics; French Language and Literature. In 2008, upon successful completion of full 4 years of College (Undergraduate/BA), I was presented with an opportunity to travel to the United States as an exchange student, which allowed me to improve my skills in foreign language studies, learn a new culture and ultimately reach my full potential as a Linguist. At this moment, I am an American Citizen with dual citizenship (American/Russian). I have 7 years of training and experience in investigative work as a Private Investigator. I am fluent in 4 languages ( Russian, English, French and Tatar, which is Turkic Group of Languages) and currently am learning Chinese Mandarin as my 5th language.
