Thank you for taking the time to visit our blog .

From time to time we will publish those matters that are close to our business heart and relate to the nature of our business - the world of a private detective agency.

Although we will not discuss specific investigations we are, or have been involved in, we will talk about issues that effect our core business, and highlight trends, patterns and methods that we have come across being used by the people we are investigating, along with tools and systems we have adopted as a resource for our investigative work.

Is there anything illegal occurring on your computer?

The use of computers is now a normal part of our daily routine. Whether at home using the internet to shop, keep in touch with friends or at work carrying out job related activities.
In the main computers are used for lawful and ordinary tasks, but sometimes computers can be used for more sinister interests, such as stealing information or property, causing harassment, or for some deprived sexual motive.
What are they doing on the computer?

Owning a family computer is a responsibility that should be taken seriously. Do you know what members of your family are using the computer for? Is there anything on there that may cause you concern? Do you want to know what they have been doing?

Breach of Contract, Breach of Trust...


They have been a loyal servant to the company and have performed well bringing in new business and expanding the companies order books.

Is it worth the paper its written on?
Then you find out they are looking to go elsewhere and ply their trade. No problem you think, if they can do better elsewhere good luck to them.

Then you find out they have not only left to set up a rival business or worse, join a competitor, but they are seeking to take your clients and even some of your staff with them.

What can you do?

Do You Have Staff Stealing?

In these difficult times it is no comfort for business owners whatever their size to suspect that an employee is taking advantage of their position and helping themselves to company property.

UK companies lose an estimated £3 billion pounds worth of stock each year through employee internal theft. Not only is it a dilemma for an employer to identify who is responsible, but it can also be problematic in dealing with their suspicions in a fair and lawful manner.

Fighting for Justice

As investigators we regularly get called upon to assist in criminal defence matters....


In an era of public spending cut backs and reductions in police numbers it is no surprise that the effectiveness of the police service will suffer.
We have seen first hand evidence of these "efficiency savings" after being instructed to assist private clients establish their innocence following being prosecuted for offences such as murder, sexual assault and rape.
We found in most cases, that not only did the police fail to carry out some basic investigative procedures, but those that they did complete were able to be questioned and doubts cast upon their credibility when challenged in court.
