Private Investigations in San Diego - Investigative Services
Private provides several sought after investigative services. We provide professional private investigations in San Diego and have 30 years of investigative expereince in working as a private investigator. We have developed unique sources from our work and can provide bespoke services regardless of the matter. Here are a few frequently used services by our clients:
​
Surveillance
San Diego private investigators conduct surveillance of subjects. This is where we discreetly watch a subject to learn more about their conduct, behavior, movements and associations. Surveillance is conducted with two or more surveillance operatives that work together to ensure that they collect the best possible documentation that may later become evidence.
Many investigators in the San Diego area will try to convince you that surveillance is the mother of all investigative tools, this is usually because they cut their teeth in surveillance and do not have a lot of experience in looking at the big picture of the client’s matter. We use surveillance as a tool, but do so sparingly as the results can be mixed and good surveillance costs a lot of money.
