Family and Child Custody Investigations

Discreet Florida investigations for custody, infidelity and family disputes. Lawful documentation focused on the decision or court issue at hand.

Begin With the Decision, Not the Suspicion

Family investigations often start when someone is anxious, angry or unsure whom to believe. Acting on every suspicion usually increases cost and conflict. We begin with the decision in front of you—what your attorney needs for a custody matter, what conduct needs to be documented or whether surveillance is likely to answer the question at all.

Child Custody and Parenting-Time Concerns

We can document observable conduct relevant to an existing custody issue, interview appropriate witnesses and verify specific factual claims. The investigation is not a general judgment of either parent, and an investigator does not decide what arrangement is in a child's best interests. That determination belongs to the court with guidance from the parties and their counsel.

If a child may be in immediate danger, contact 911 or the appropriate protective-services agency first.

Suspected Infidelity

Lawful surveillance can document where a person goes, whom they meet and what occurs in public view during the assignment. It cannot provide certainty about an entire relationship, and it does not include unauthorized access to phones, email, financial accounts or private communications.

Before spending money on surveillance, we discuss the schedule, likely locations and what finding would actually change your next decision.

Assets and Background Questions

Public records can reveal real property, business affiliations, litigation and other leads. Access to bank, tax, medical and other protected records generally requires consent, legal process or work through counsel. Complex marital-asset matters may also require a forensic accountant.

What You Receive

The report separates direct observation, sourced records and third-party statements. It also records material limitations. That discipline matters in a family case, where assumptions can quickly become accusations.

Request a private consultation. If litigation is pending, we are glad to coordinate directly with your family-law attorney.
