08. Frequently Asked Questions
Know what to expect.
1. How much does surveillance cost?
Pricing depends on the hours, locations, staffing, and complexity involved. We discuss the proposed scope and costs before you authorize the assignment.
2. How quickly can surveillance begin?
Timing depends on investigator availability, location, and the information needed to prepare. Contact us to discuss your preferred start date.
3. Can surveillance evidence be used in court?
Surveillance findings may support a legal matter, but admissibility depends on how the evidence was obtained and the court’s requirements. Tell us early if an attorney is involved so we can discuss documentation needs.
4. Will the subject know they are being watched?
Our investigators work discreetly, but no surveillance operation can guarantee that it will remain undetected. If circumstances change, we assess whether to adjust or discontinue coverage.
5. What if surveillance does not confirm my suspicions?
We report the findings honestly. An investigation may document relevant activity, challenge a suspicion, or leave questions unresolved. We explain what the evidence does and does not establish.
