What to Expect from a Private Surveillance Investigation in New York

Surveillance isn’t about dramatics—it’s about facts, timing, and precision. At New York Investigations, we know that reaching out for private surveillance services often comes at a stressful time. Whether it’s a personal issue or a professional concern, understanding the process can help you feel more in control and confident.

Here’s what you can expect when you hire our team for a private surveillance investigation in New York.

Confidential Consultation

Every case begins with a private, no-obligation consultation. We listen to your concerns, ask targeted questions, and assess the situation. Our goal is to understand:

  • Who is the subject?

  • What are the suspected activities?

  • When and where should surveillance occur?

  • What are your desired outcomes?

This step is 100% confidential. No action is taken until we have your full approval and a clear strategy in place.

Customized Surveillance Plan

Surveillance isn’t one-size-fits-all. Based on your goals, we’ll develop a personalized investigation plan that outlines:

  • The scope and duration of surveillance

  • The tools and techniques we’ll use (e.g., video, photos, vehicle tracking)

  • Legal and logistical considerations

Our investigators are trained to blend in, remain unnoticed, and adapt to unpredictable environments while staying within New York’s legal framework.

Real-Time Monitoring (When Applicable)

Depending on the case, we may offer real-time updates or periodic check-ins. While some clients prefer to wait for the final report, others appreciate receiving alerts when something important happens—especially in time-sensitive situations like child custody or infidelity cases.

Evidence Gathering

During the investigation, we collect actionable, court-admissible evidence:

  • High-resolution photographs

  • Time-stamped video footage

  • Detailed observation logs

  • GPS tracking reports (when legally permissible)

Our surveillance methods are discreet, and we never interfere with or provoke the subject. We let the facts unfold naturally—and document them accurately.

Comprehensive Report

Once surveillance concludes, you’ll receive a detailed report outlining all findings. We break down timelines, provide supporting visuals, and summarize observations in clear, easy-to-understand language.

This report can serve as:

  • A legal tool in court proceedings

  • Supporting evidence for insurance claims

  • Personal peace of mind in emotionally charged situations


 Ongoing Support and Guidance

Our job doesn’t end with the report. We’ll walk you through the findings, answer your questions, and advise you on next steps—whether it involves legal action, mediation, or simply closure.

You’re never just a file number. At New York Investigations, we build real partnerships with our clients and are here for you before, during, and after the investigation.
