Infidelity Investigation California

Suspecting your Spouse is cheating on you? Let’s Us Help. 

Why You Should Hire Us For Cheating Spouse Investigations

Look, nobody wants to be in this situation. When your gut tells you something’s wrong – those unexplained late nights, the sudden password changes, that new cologne they never wore before – you need answers. Not next month. Not after another sleepless night wondering. You need the truth now.

 

We’ve handled over 500 infidelity cases across Southern California since 2012. About 78% of the time, when someone calls us with suspicions, their instincts are right. But here’s what matters: whether your suspicions are confirmed or not, you deserve peace of mind and concrete evidence to make informed decisions about your future.

Types of Infidelity Investigations We Conduct

  • Spouse/Partner Surveillance – Discreet documentation of daily activities, meetings, and behavior patterns
  • Workplace Affair Investigations – Those “late meetings” and “business trips” verified through professional surveillance
  • Dating App & Online Infidelity – Digital forensics to uncover hidden profiles on Tinder, Ashley Madison, and other platforms
  • Asset Protection Documentation – Evidence of community property being used for affairs (hotels, gifts, dinners)
  • Cohabitation Investigations – For post-divorce alimony modifications when ex-spouses move in with new partners

 

  • Background Checks on Suspected Third Parties – Who exactly is this “new friend from the gym”?

Our Investigation Methods & Technology

Real talk – catching a cheater in 2024 isn’t like the movies. Modern affairs leave both digital footprints and physical evidence. Here’s how we document everything legally and discreetly:

  • HD Video Surveillance – Time-stamped, court-admissible footage using 4K cameras with night vision
  • Vehicle Tracking (where legally permitted) – GPS documentation of actual locations vs. claimed whereabouts
  • Digital Forensics – Recover deleted texts, hidden apps, and secret social media accounts from devices you own
  • Financial Transaction Analysis – Uncover secret credit cards, unusual ATM withdrawals, and hidden purchases
  • Multi-Investigator Teams – Maintain cover during extended surveillance operations
  • Photographic Documentation – High-resolution images that hold up in court proceedings

Signs You Might Need an Infidelity Investigation

After handling hundreds of cases, we’ve seen the patterns. If you’re noticing three or more of these red flags, it’s time to get answers:

  • Sudden obsession with phone privacy – taking calls outside, sleeping with phone, new passwords
  • Unexplained expenses – restaurant charges you didn’t go to, hotel receipts, ATM withdrawals
  • Schedule changes – new gym routine, working late consistently, weekend “emergencies”
  • Emotional distance – picking fights, avoiding intimacy, seeming distracted or guilty
  • Appearance changes – new wardrobe, different cologne/perfume, sudden interest in fitness
  • Defensive behavior – angry when asked simple questions about their day or whereabouts
  • Gut feeling – honestly, your instincts are usually right. Trust yourself.

Cost of Infidelity Investigations

Why Hire Us Instead of DIY Investigation

Sure, you could try following them yourself or checking their phone when they’re in the shower. But here’s why that’s a bad idea:

  • Legal Protection – Evidence we gather follows California law and admissibility rules. Yours might not.
  • Emotional Safety – Confrontations based on suspicion often lead to gaslighting or worse. Get proof first.
  • Professional Equipment – Our surveillance tech captures details phone cameras miss
  • Objectivity – We document facts without emotional involvement
  • Court Experience – Our investigators regularly testify in divorce proceedings
  • Your Safety – Following someone yourself could lead to dangerous confrontations
  • Discretion – Your spouse will never know they’re being investigated until you’re ready
