General Investigation

Our highly experienced team of investigators undertake all areas of private investigation, using the extensive resources of Proteus to carry out surveillance, financial status enquiries, lifestyle checks and a variety of other forms of investigative work. The different areas of concern range from landlord and tenant matters, family and matrimonial issues, personal injury and insurance cases, through to debt and insolvency issues.

Proteus has found that surveillance of individuals and properties has proven to be one of the most common forms of investigation requested by clients and the reasons behind such instructions can vary considerably, from being based on nuisance issues right through to questions of spousal fidelity. Visual, audio and any other appropriate evidence can be provided by our private investigators as required as well as precise written reports to be used in any potential legal proceedings which might arise thereafter. All investigations are conducted in accordance with the specific parameters of current legislation and permitted methods of operation with all evidence being legally admissible.

Details of an individual's financial status is frequently needed when considering commencing legal action or during the course of any such action. Financial information can have an important impact on the decision as to the viability of taking action against a person or business and consequently can help avoid "throwing good money after bad". In general, financial investigations look into a range of interests including residences, employment, vehicles, associated assets, credit history, and other such matters.

Our agents interview potential witnesses and obtain full and detailed Statements from the same, examining all relevant information and available facts relating to a particular case or matter. Such Statements are always formatted to comply with the appropriate legal requirements for use in any proceedings.

Locus in quo reports in respect of accident or site inspections are carried out by our operatives to the highest of standards and include documentary, photographic and plan evidence as required and in order to ensure comprehensive examination of each individual site. Naturally all such evidence is then compiled in the requisite format for use in proceedings.
