Our Approach to Covert Surveillance

When it comes to covert surveillance, discretion is everything. At Research Associates, we excel in handling these cases with absolute confidentiality. Our team comprises highly trained surveillance professionals who can document any situation without drawing attention. Whether you need to observe a partner suspected of infidelity, monitor employee misconduct, or gather evidence for legal purposes, our methods are both effective and discreet.

Protecting Your Interests

Covert surveillance lets us gather information without the subject knowing they are being watched. This ensures that their behaviour remains natural, providing genuine insights. We use a mix of traditional surveillance techniques and advanced technology, like high-resolution cameras and GPS tracking devices, to monitor and document activities discreetly. This helps us collect accurate, actionable data crucial for your case.

Professionalism and Discretion

At Research Associates, professionalism and discretion are at the heart of what we do. Our investigators are thoroughly vetted and specially trained in covert surveillance. They know how to blend into any environment and gather information without being detected. We understand the importance of maintaining your privacy and handle each case with the highest level of confidentiality.

Comprehensive Reporting

After our surveillance is complete, we provide you with a detailed report that includes all findings and evidence collected. Our reports are clear, concise, and designed to help you make informed decisions. Whether you need the information for personal closure, legal proceedings, or business decisions, our reports are thorough and reliable. They include date- and time-stamped media evidence, ensuring the data’s integrity and authenticity.
