With decades of surveillance experience, we use advanced equipment and careful strategy to monitor activity without detection. Our surveillance services support cases involving infidelity, child custody disputes, insurance fraud and workers’ compensation claims. We deliver clear, documented results that hold up in court and provide peace of mind in sensitive situations.
Infidelity & Child Custody
Personal cases require discretion, empathy, and thoroughness. We offer infidelity investigations to help clients facing uncertainty in their relationships. By combining surveillance with investigative research, we deliver factual, unbiased reports so you can make informed decisions. For child custody investigations, we focus on the safety and well-being of the child, gathering the documentation and evidence courts often require to support custody decisions.
