Why Surveillance in South America Calls for Local Investigators
Foreign owners, retirees, and long-distance partners all have reasons to watch from afar. Big cities such as Bogota and Buenos Aires make it easy to lead a double life.
Foreign investigators are easy to spot, and accents give them away. Local teams know where to park, what to wear, and how long to wait.
Brazil regulates private detectives under a 2017 law, and our teams work within it. Our South America branches page lists each office.

Client Reviews
Client Feedback on Our Surveillance Work
★★★★★
The investigation established that the apartment my boyfriend shared with his cousin was his family home. His wife and two children lived there with him. I had met him on a trip to Medellin and moved here a year later. I ended it the same week.
Hannah, Medellin, Colombia
★★★★★
My Quito apartment was meant to be empty between tenants. A surveillance private investigator watched the building for five days. He counted eleven different guests arriving with luggage. The caretaker had been renting it out through a vacation website. I replaced him and changed the locks the following week.
Daniel, Quito, Ecuador
★★★★★
From Santiago, I could not see how our Sao Paulo warehouse really ran. Our Brazilian manager kept reporting stock losses he could not explain. Their private surveillance services in Brazil covered the loading bay for a week. Boxes went out after hours in a private car, and the police took it from there.
Matias, Santiago, Chile
★★★★★
My father is eighty and lives alone in Mendoza. A new friend had started handling his errands and his bank card. As his children, we asked for discreet surveillance over two weeks. It confirmed she was taking him to the bank and keeping the cash, and we stepped in.
