Hi, I’ve recently noticed some unusual behavior from my partner—late-night messages, sudden secrecy, and unexplained absences. I’m really concerned and need to know the truth. Is this something you can help me with, and how does the process work?

Answer from 

Peter Hoffman, B.Sc.

Surveillance Specialist

Hello, and thank you for reaching out regarding your concerns. Infidelity investigations are one of the most requested services for private investigators (PIs), and we approach them with professionalism, discretion, and strict adherence to legal standards. Below is an overview of how such an investigation is typically conducted and what you can expect from our services.

Initial Consultation

The process begins with a confidential consultation, during which we gather essential details about your partner’s habits, schedule, and any existing evidence. This step helps us design an investigative plan that is both efficient and compliant with local laws.

Investigation Methods

Infidelity investigations generally involve a combination of the following techniques:

  • Physical Surveillance
    Trained field operatives monitor the subject’s movements and interactions. Surveillance is typically conducted by at least two investigators to maintain continuous coverage and minimize detection risk.

  • Digital Evidence Gathering
    Where legally permissible, this may include analysis of social media activity, online dating profiles, and open-source intelligence (OSINT). We strictly avoid any actions that violate privacy laws, such as unauthorized hacking or interception.

  • GPS Tracking
    In certain jurisdictions and only when legally authorized (often requiring ownership of the vehicle), GPS devices can be used to track movements discreetly and accurately.

  • Photo and Video Documentation
    High-resolution cameras and long-range lenses allow us to capture clear evidence of interactions or meetings. All recordings are timestamped and geotagged for authenticity.

Legal and Ethical Compliance

All investigative work adheres to the relevant laws and regulations within the jurisdiction. We do not engage in any illegal surveillance methods, as evidence obtained unlawfully is typically inadmissible in court and could expose clients to liability.

Reporting

Upon completion, you will receive a detailed report, including:

  • Chronological account of observed activities,

  • Supporting photo/video evidence,

  • Time-stamped and location-verified documentation.

Confidentiality

Your identity and all details shared remain strictly confidential under client-PI privilege. Discretion is our highest priority throughout the process.

Next Steps

If you choose to proceed, we will outline an operational plan, estimated timeframe, and associated costs based on case complexity and required resources. An initial consultation is free of charge and helps us define the best investigative strategy for your situation.
