Why Child Custody Investigations Matter
In custody battles, the court relies on verifiable evidence to determine what is in the best interests of the child.

Situations We See All the Time
01
They're Suddenly Guarding Their Phone
New passwords you don't know. The screen tilted away from you. Taking calls in another room. When your partner starts treating their phone like a state secret, your gut is probably telling you something.
02
The Schedule Doesn't Add Up
Late nights at the office that never used to happen. Weekend "work projects" with vague details. A sudden gym membership or new hobby that takes up hours. When the excuses start piling up, so do the questions.
03
Money's Going Somewhere
Charges you don't recognize. Cash withdrawals they can't explain. Gifts you didn't receive. Sometimes the credit card statement tells a story your partner won't.
04
Something's Off Online
You notice flirty comments, messages that disappear, or they're suddenly obsessed with their DMs. Emotional affairs often start online before they become physical—and they're just as real.
05
Someone Told You Something
A friend saw them at dinner with someone. A coworker made a comment. An anonymous message showed up in your inbox. Before you confront your partner, we can help you separate rumor from reality.
06
You're Facing Divorce or Custody Issues
If you're heading toward separation, documented proof of infidelity can make a significant difference in custody arrangements, alimony, and settlement negotiations. We help you build a case that holds up in court.
07
You're in a Long-Distance Relationship
When you're apart for work, school, or other reasons and the calls become less frequent or something just feels different—we can quietly verify what's happening while you're away.
08
You're About to Get Married
Some people want to be sure before saying "I do." If you're having doubts about your partner's honesty or past, it's better to know now than after the wedding.
09
An Ex Is Back in the Picture
They reconnected with an old flame on social media and now there are coffee meetups and inside jokes you're not part of. When "just friends" starts feeling like more, we can find out what's really going on.
10
Your Partner Travels for Work
Truck drivers, oil field workers, military members, sales reps—if your spouse is on the road constantly and you've noticed changes in behavior, you're not paranoid for wanting answers.
What to look for here are some Tips
You know your partner better than anyone. Sometimes it’s not one big thing—it’s a dozen small things that add up. Here are the patterns we see most often in infidelity cases. If several of these sound familiar, trust what your gut is telling you.

Let's Clear Up What You're Probably Wondering
We know you have questions—and probably some concerns too. Here are the answers to what most people ask before they reach out. If you don’t see your question here, just call us. We’re happy to talk through whatever’s on your mind.
Are child custody investigations legal?
Yes. We operate within state and federal laws, and our findings are admissible in court.
How long does an investigation take?
It depends on the case — from days for simple checks to weeks for complex custody disputes.
Will the child know they are being investigated?
No. Our methods are discreet, respectful, and focused on protecting the child.
What kind of evidence will I get?
You’ll receive timestamped photos, HD video footage, GPS tracking data (where legal), and detailed written reports. Everything is organized, professional, and admissible in court if you need it for divorce or custody proceedings. You’re not getting blurry phone pics—this is documentation that actually holds up.
What if you don't find anything?
Then you get peace of mind. Not every suspicion turns out to be correct, and honestly, we’re happy when that’s the case. You’ll still get a full report showing what we observed, so you know we did thorough work. Either way, you’ll have clarity instead of constant doubt.
What evidence will I receive?
Reports, surveillance logs, photos/videos (where legal), and verified documentation.
Is this evidence admissible in court?
Yes. We document everything according to legal standards specifically so it can be used in divorce, custody, or alimony cases. Our reports include dates, times, locations, and verifiable proof. We’ve worked with attorneys across Houston, and our evidence holds up.
Do I need proof before I confront my spouse?
That’s up to you, but most people feel better having solid evidence first. Confronting someone based on suspicion alone often leads to denials, gaslighting, or them getting better at hiding things. With documented proof, there’s no room for excuses or manipulation.
How quickly can you start?
We can often start surveillance within 24-48 hours, sometimes same-day if it’s urgent. If your partner’s behavior is happening right now—like a suspicious trip this weekend—we’ll prioritize getting someone on it fast.
What if I'm wrong and there's no affair?
Then you’ll know for sure, and you can stop living with that nagging doubt. Some of our clients are relieved to find out their suspicions were unfounded. Either way, you’re making a decision based on facts instead of fear. That’s always better than wondering.
