Surveillance is nothing more then having a Private Investigator follow someone and document their activities. There are a number of reasons to have someone followed. The most common one is where a spouse suspects their wife or husband of having an affair. Some other situations are shown and described below. A good resource for divorce related information can be found at: www.divorcenet.com.
ADULTERY - If you suspect that your spouse is having an affair, surveillance should be conducted when he/she has the time to meet with the other person. You have to watch and question everything he/she says to you. Something as simple as working out at the gym can provide enough time for them to get together. A business executive may say that he/she has to leave early on Friday to attend a seminar. There may indeed by a seminar that day but they may leave early to meet the other person. People that cheat on their spouse come up with one lie after another. We can help guide you through the process of determining an appropriate surveillance time. All of the information that you provide us is strictly confidential. Our goal is to conduct surveillance and remain undetected by the person being followed.
CHILD CUSTODY - In this type of situation we are usually trying to show that one of the parents of the child have a faulty decision making process. This can be something as simple as not using a car seat or a more serious situation like drinking and driving, physical abuse or leaving the child with other while going out to the bar. Our goal is to document any and all behavior that will help you in court. The judge starts out the case viewing both parents as equal. Our evidence can help the judge make an informed decision that’s in the child’s best interest.
COHABITATION - There are times where we are asked to see if anyone is currently living with another person. The reasons for this vary but our approach is the same. Investigators establish a surveillance position with the residence in view so that anyone entering or exiting can be video taped. The investigator must hide out in the vehicle so that they cannot be seen by the subject or neighbors. Once we determine that another adult has activity at the residence, we would obtain the vehicle make, model and tag number in order to identify them. A decision would be made as to the importance of documenting whether this person spends the night with the subject.
DRUG USE - Catching a person in the act of buying or using drugs is very difficult. It’s just part of the users daily routing to keep anyone from seeing it take place. There are times where we are successful in video taping what appears to be the exchange of drugs for money. The subject drives downtown into a run down area. The subject pulls to the curb while at the same time a person on the sidewalk reaches into the passenger window, pulling their arm back out within a split second. The subject drives away and returns home. We all know what probably just happened but the investigator cannot testify that the subject purchased drugs. We can show the video tape to the judge and let him/her decide how likely it is that drugs were purchased. Obtaining this type of evidence usually takes multiple attempts, unless you know where and when the drugs are being purchased in advance.
ALCOHOL ABUSE - Most of the time when there is a drinking problem it is related to a Child Custody case. The parent in question is placing the child in danger by drinking and driving. The parent gets off of work at 3:30 p.m., goes to the local bar and has four drinks prior to picking up the child at 5:00 p.m. Our investigators would be inside the bar counting the number of drinks and the rate of consumption. A recent case had investigators document the father drinking three beers on a construction job site one hour prior to getting his 10 year old son. They go from there to a restaurant where he drinks three more beers in about forty-five minutes. He then drives his son home to drop off to the mother (soon to be ex-wife). The wife requested an emergency court hearing the following morning. After the judge saw our evidence, the father was only allowed supervised visitation.
INSURANCE FRAUD - Over the years our investigators have been called upon to verify the claims of workers who are alleged to be “injured”. Our investigators have repeatedly uncovered fraudulent and bogus claims. On countless occasions, we have recorded activities of people who are collecting compensation improperly and illegally. These people are cheating the system and make it more difficult for those who really need the assistance to obtain it. We take great pride in exposing thieves, cheats and frauds of the Worker’s Compensation program or Insurance Fraud claims.
Anytime that our investigators conduct surveillance and there is any significant results to communicate, a typed report is provided with important photos of the activities. The photos are captured directly from the actual video taped evidence and inserted into a Microsoft Word document for your review.
All of our investigators use a video camera to document their surveillance activities. We expect that our client will want a copy of this video taped evidence anytime something important happens. The video taped evidence is transferred to a regular DVD and mailed to whatever address you supply.
