Investigative tools are applied to case goals. These are the investigation types that most often use legal support.
Divorce Investigations
Washington is a no-fault state, but that doesn't mean your divorce will be simple. Cases get stuck all the time when one side claims cohabitation, hidden spending, or bad parenting - and the other side just says "prove it." What's usually missing is an honest, fact-based timeline that isn't just one person's word against the other.
- What we look into: cohabitation verification, residence-use timelines, lifestyle and spending inconsistencies, and whether the other party is being truthful about their living situation.
- Also useful for: concerns about wasted marital assets, undisclosed overnight guests, and conflicting stories about household arrangements.
- High net worth situations: if you suspect hidden business interests, shell companies, offshore accounts, or undisclosed assets like vehicles, boats, or property - we develop leads and document what can be verified through lawful sources.
- Evidence focus: we compare what each side claims against what we independently observe, so the dispute gets tested with facts instead of feelings.
- Goal: build a factual timeline that puts you in a stronger position for settlement or trial.
- What you get: surveillance observations, chronology logs, and supporting photos or video.
- What we won't do: hack accounts, impersonate anyone, trespass, or make unlawful recordings.

High Net Worth Divorce Investigations
High net worth divorce investigations focus on financially complex family-law cases where business ties, property use, lifestyle patterns, and ownership leads need to be documented clearly and carefully.
- What we look into: business interests, shell entities, LLC and property ties, undeclared vehicles or boats, residence-use patterns, and lifestyle-to-income inconsistencies.
- Use cases: disputed disclosures, business-owner divorce, asset-control conflicts, and financially complex settlement or trial preparation.
- Output: source-based timelines, ownership-lead packages, property-use documentation, and organized reporting for attorney review.

Child Custody Investigations
When your child's safety is on the line, you need more than worry - you need proof. Family courts in Washington decide custody based on the "best interest of the child" standard, which means judges look at parental fitness, the home environment, each parent's history, and the child's physical and emotional well-being. But courts can only weigh what's in front of them. If you suspect neglect, substance abuse, unsafe supervision, or worse - we help you document it so the facts speak for themselves.
- What we look into: custody exchanges, supervision concerns, unsupervised visitation, unsafe living conditions, and whether children are being exposed to dangerous people or situations - including partners with criminal histories, substance use around kids, signs of physical harm, or reckless behavior like impaired driving with children in the car.
- Visitation monitoring: we observe and document visitation exchanges and overnight stays to verify whether court-ordered arrangements are being followed and whether the child appears safe.
- Also useful for: unauthorized caregivers, concerning pickup/dropoff behavior, grandparents or extended family members seeking custody or visitation rights, and building facts for emergency custody motions.
- False accusations: if you've been falsely accused of neglect, abuse, or unfit parenting, we gather independent evidence that tells your side of the story with dates, witnesses, and context - so you're not stuck just defending yourself with words.
- Court factors we help document: parental fitness, stability of each home, each parent's willingness to support the child's relationship with the other parent, criminal or substance history, and the child's established routine - all factors Washington courts consider when deciding legal custody (who makes decisions) and physical custody (where the child lives), whether sole or joint.
- Evidence focus: we separate one-time incidents from repeat patterns by documenting each observation with dates, times, and context.
- Report standard: we use neutral, observable language with context and no legal conclusions.
- Corroboration: field observations are cross-checked against lawful records, witness statements, and timeline references when available.
- Goal: document the patterns that matter to your child's safety and well-being - tied to the facts a judge can actually use.
- What you get: timestamped logs, photos/video, and incident timelines ready for legal review.
- What we won't do: access school records illegally, break into devices, or record without authorization.

Parental Kidnapping and Unauthorized Removal Investigations
Parental kidnapping and unauthorized removal investigations focus on urgent child-locate and movement-timeline work when a parent takes or keeps a child outside the expected legal or parenting-plan framework.
- What we look into: parent and child locate leads, recent movement patterns, residence-use verification, public-facing digital traces, and timeline reconstruction tied to court orders or expected exchanges.
- Use cases: missed returns, concealment concerns, emergency custody strategy support, and attorney-directed fact development in urgent child-custody disputes.
- Output: source-based locate notes, timeline-based reporting, and organized evidence for attorney and law-enforcement coordination.

Alimony and Spousal Support Investigations
This investigation type focuses on support-related facts such as cohabitation indicators, lifestyle patterns, and undisclosed income behavior that may affect support strategy.
- Common examples: cohabitation timeline development, routine pattern verification, and source-based observations.
- Use cases: support establishment, contested support obligations, and modification petitions.
- Output: timeline-based evidence summaries prepared for attorney and court process.

Child Support Modification Investigations
Child support modification investigations focus on evidence tied to changed circumstances, income disputes, and employment or residency facts relevant to support recalculation.
- Common examples: employment and activity pattern verification, residence-use observations, and source-based documentation.
- Use cases: proving income change claims, disputed underemployment assertions, and undisclosed-work indicators.
- Output: time-stamped findings matched to support-hearing preparation.

Financial Support Investigations
Support orders don't update themselves. When someone starts a new job, picks up cash work, or moves in with a partner, the numbers change - but the court order stays the same until someone proves it. If you know the other side is hiding income or living a lifestyle that doesn't match what they claim, we help you put that on paper.
- What we look into: income and employment verification, undisclosed side work or business activity, and asset or property leads.
- Also useful for: cohabitation evidence in support cases, cash-income vs. lifestyle mismatches, and tracing business interests - including shell companies, undisclosed partnerships, and property held through LLCs or trusts.
- Evidence focus: we tie support arguments to verifiable income, residence, and spending patterns - not estimates or hearsay.
- Goal: produce organized documentation that supports establishing or modifying a support order.
- What you get: structured records research with sources indexed for legal use.
- What we won't do: access financial data illegally or impersonate anyone to obtain tax records.

Hidden Assets and Asset Search Investigations
In family-law disputes, outcomes often depend on whether income, property use, and financial control are documented with verifiable evidence. This work is focused on family-law asset discovery, not consumer debt collection or generic recovery services.
- What we look into: hidden income indicators, undisclosed assets, and ownership/use patterns tied to support or divorce disputes.
- Asset-search scope: vehicles, real property, business interests, and public-record leads that can be documented for legal review.
- Also useful for: support, divorce, and compliance disputes where financial reality is contested.
- What we do not market: crypto-scam recovery or unrelated debt-collection recovery services.

Minor Guardianship Investigations
When a child needs stability right now, the urgency is real - but the court still needs lawful notice, service, and documented reasons before anything can move forward. It's frustrating when you know a child isn't safe and the paperwork feels like it's getting in the way. We help close that gap.
- What we look into: guardianship evidence, care-environment conditions, and custodial-risk incidents.
- Also useful for: school-attendance disruptions, medical-neglect concerns, and household-stability observations.
- Goal: document the child-safety factors and custodial stability needed for guardianship decisions.
- What you get: incident timelines, corroboration logs, and court-ready report packages.
- What we won't do: attempt prohibited contact or take any action that violates active court orders.
