What Are Private Investigation Services?

Private investigation services involve the lawful collection of information, intelligence, and evidence relating to individuals, businesses, or events. These services are often required where clarity, verification, or independent investigation is necessary.

At PI Services, private investigations may include:

  • Physical field enquiries and verification

  • Surveillance (where appropriate and lawful)

  • Interviews and witness statements

  • Background checks and intelligence gathering

  • Tracing of persons, assets, or records

  • Fraud and misconduct investigations

  • Evidence compilation for legal review

Each investigation is tailored to the specific objectives and circumstances of the client.

Our Private Investigation Services

Domestic & Personal Investigations

We assist private clients with sensitive personal matters that require discretion, objectivity, and professional handling, including:

  • Cheating spouse and infidelity investigations

  • Child custody investigations

  • Domestic and personal disputes

  • Missing persons investigations

  • Behavioural verification and activity checks

These investigations are conducted with sensitivity and respect for privacy.

Surveillance Investigations

Where observation is required to verify behaviour or movements, we conduct lawful surveillance using professional methods, including:

  • Mobile and static surveillance

  • Spousal and partner surveillance

  • Employee surveillance and moonlighting investigations

  • Insurance and disability claim investigations

  • Child custody-related surveillance

  • Restraint of trade investigations

Surveillance is always conducted in accordance with South African law and POPIA requirements.

Corporate & Commercial Investigations

We support businesses, insurers, and legal professionals with reliable investigative services, including:

  • Fraud investigations and financial crime examination

  • Internal theft and employee misconduct investigations

  • Due diligence investigations

  • Background checks and vetting

  • Asset searches and financial profiling

  • Civil and commercial dispute investigations

Our investigators understand corporate risk, reputational sensitivity, and evidentiary standards.

Criminal Support Investigations

While criminal cases are led by law enforcement, private investigators play a vital supporting role.

PI Services assists by:

  • Conducting independent enquiries

  • Locating witnesses or missing persons

  • Gathering intelligence and documentation

  • Assisting families and legal representatives

  • Compiling investigation reports and statements

We liaise professionally with SAPS, prosecutors, and legal teams where appropriate.
