Why Surveillance in North America Is So Often About Claims and Custody
Workers' compensation and disability claims drive much of the surveillance work across the region. A claimant who says they cannot lift may be seen moving furniture. Video of that kind changes how a claim is handled.
Family courts also weigh evidence about a parent's routine. Spouses who suspect an affair want facts before they speak to a lawyer.
Investigator licensing is set by each state and province. Our private surveillance services in North America follow those local rules. Find nearby offices on our North America branches page.

Surveillance Clients on Working With Us
★★★★★
Our claimant said his shoulder injury stopped him raising his arm above his chest. On the second day, their team filmed him replacing roof shingles at his brother's house. We referred the file to our special investigations unit that afternoon.
Denise, Houston, USA
★★★★★
My ex-husband's weekends with our son were meant to be supervised by his mother. I suspected she was never there. Their investigators documented four weekends from public places, each with times and locations. My family lawyer used the log to change the arrangement.
Rebecca, Toronto, Canada
★★★★★
I told myself private investigators were for people in movies, not for me. After the fourth out-of-town conference in a year, I changed my mind. Their surveillance private investigator followed my wife to a hotel near O'Hare twice in one month. I filed for divorce with facts, not guesses.
Mark, Chicago, USA
★★★★★
I could not watch our Guadalajara plant from Monterrey every day. My co-owner insisted the night shift had stopped for lack of orders. Their covert surveillance team watched the gates for five nights. Loaded trucks left every night, and none of that work reached our books.

Frequently Asked Questions About Surveillance in North America
Common questions from insurers, attorneys, and private clients
Do insurance companies use private investigators for surveillance?
Yes. Insurers and self-insured employers often instruct investigators to check a claim. Our team records the claimant's activity over several days. The video shows what they can and cannot do. Claims handlers then decide whether the claim matches the evidence.
Can surveillance help in a child custody case?
Yes. Surveillance can document where a child spends time, who supervises them, and how a parent behaves. Our investigators record facts only, with times and places. Your attorney decides how to use the report. We never approach the child or the other parent.
What laws apply to private investigator surveillance in North America?
Licensing rules differ by state and province, and investigators may not trespass or harass anyone. Our teams observe and film only from public places. Within those limits, attorneys and insurers use surveillance every day. We confirm the local rules before each operation.
How long does workers' compensation surveillance take?
Most claim checks run over three days, often including a weekend. Claimants tend to be more active on days off. We choose dates based on the claim and any known appointments. If the first days show nothing, we can discuss more coverage with you.
Can you follow a subject between the US and Canada or Mexico?
Yes. Our branches work together when a subject crosses a border. The team on the other side takes over on arrival. Your Lead Investigator keeps the case on one timeline. Each team works under its own country's rules. You receive a single report covering both countries.
Can surveillance prove a spouse is cheating?
Surveillance records where a spouse goes, who they meet, and how they interact. That evidence often answers the question directly. Our reports stay factual and leave conclusions to you. Your attorney can advise how it fits a divorce or separation.
