Staten Island feels worlds away from Manhattan, and our investigators know its tight knit neighborhoods, from St. George to Tottenville.
Staten Island feels worlds away from the other four boroughs, and effective investigation here demands investigators who know the tight knit communities, and how news travels in them. From the wealthy estate properties of Todt Hill to the post Sandy waterfront rebuilds of the South Shore, Staten Island has surveillance dynamics distinct from anywhere else in the city.
Our Staten Island coverage includes St. George, Stapleton, Rosebank, Grasmere, Dongan Hills, Grant City, New Dorp, Oakwood, Great Kills, Eltingville, Annadale, Huguenot, Prince's Bay, Tottenville, and Westerleigh, plus the wealthy Todt Hill and Emerson Hill enclaves.
Richmond County Supreme Court at 18 Richmond Terrace is the primary venue. Our investigators are familiar with the Staten Island court system and have testified there.
Most surveillance work fails in the first hour because the investigator doesn't know the territory. Buildings have specific dynamics. Doorman buildings vs. walk ups, single family homes vs. high rises, restaurants with side exits, hotels with multiple entrances. Our Staten Island investigators have worked the borough for years, and that experience is what separates surveillance that produces results from surveillance that gets burned in the first hour.
