Our covert surveillance operations utilise advanced technology to gather critical evidence discreetly. Specialising in mobile, static, and progressive monitoring, we document subjects' activities with time-stamped photographic proof. Clients receive comprehensive reports detailing observations, movements, and interactions for legal proceedings or personal reassurance.
Process Serving
We provide legally compliant delivery of court documents including injunctions, divorce petitions, and statutory demands. Our ABI-registered agents ensure proof of service through signed certificates, with fixed fees covering all mileage and reporting. Urgent cases receive same-day attention subject to availability across our nationwide network.
Infidelity Investigations
Specialist matrimonial surveillance services track suspected infidelity with meticulous documentation. Our experienced teams employ discreet observation techniques to confirm or dispel suspicions, providing admissible evidence for legal proceedings. All operations maintain strict confidentiality while following subjects' movements and interactions.

We investigate workplace misconduct including sick pay fraud, contract breaches, and personal injury claim verification. Our surveillance teams document employee activities to assess claim validity, while maintaining professional boundaries. Corporate clients receive detailed reports with photographic evidence to support disciplinary or legal actions.
