Covert Surveillance
Documentation of what a subject actually does, where they go and who they meet, gathered by investigators trained to never be noticed. Built to evidentiary standards from the first minute of the file.
The capability
Records show what a subject claims. Covert surveillance shows what a subject does. Licensed investigators observe and document real activity, in public and quasi-public space, without the subject ever knowing they were there.
Discretion is not a stylistic preference. Surveillance that gets noticed has already failed: it contaminates the evidence, alerts the subject and can expose the client. Our investigators train in the unglamorous disciplines that keep an operation invisible, including positioning, patience, vehicle craft and knowing when to break off.
What you receive
Timestamped video and photography shot to evidentiary standards, detailed logs covering every observation period, and a written report built for court, counsel or a claims file. Every method is legal and chosen for admissibility: evidence that cannot survive cross-examination is not evidence, it is liability.
When it fits
Insurance and WSIB claim verification, child custody and family matters, workplace misconduct and fraud, and confirming a located subject’s residence or routine.
It is external by design: surveillance documents what happens in public and quasi-public view, not what happens inside a workplace or home where no lawful vantage exists. Where the conduct in question only happens indoors, an inside placement is the right tool, not a camera on the street.
