Private Investigation Services in Vancouver
What Private Investigation Really Is in Vancouver
​
Private investigation in Vancouver isn’t about trench coats or shadows in alleyways. It’s about facts, evidence, and legal compliance. Our team is led by a former police officer who brings decades of investigative experience to the table. Every investigator is fully certified and trained to handle sensitive cases with professionalism.
​
In Metro Vancouver, that can mean everything from a retail chain dealing with inventory theft to a landlord needing background checks on potential tenants. Families call when they need clarity in custody disputes. Law firms depend on reliable evidence that will hold up in court. The city is diverse and fast-moving, and the role of a private investigator is to help people and businesses cut through uncertainty with verified truth.

Corporate and Workplace Investigations
Vancouver’s corporate world stretches from office towers downtown to warehouses in Surrey. Growth is constant, but so are risks — fraud, false claims, intellectual property theft, and harassment. When money and credibility are on the line, an internal HR note or rumor won’t cut it.
​
Our certified investigators step in with proven methods: discreet surveillance of employees abusing sick leave, verification of injury claims, or deep dives into financial inconsistencies. Every step is documented carefully so that HR departments and legal teams have solid evidence to rely on.
​
This professional oversight, guided by our former police leadership, means problems are contained early rather than allowed to spread. Many companies pair this with Night Security Services for after-hours protection, building a full picture of risk management.
Personal and Family Investigations
Private investigations aren’t just for businesses. Families and individuals in Vancouver face situations where facts matter just as much. Child custody disputes, background checks before major life decisions, and locating missing family members are some of the most common requests we handle.
​
Our certified team approaches these cases with sensitivity but also precision. In custody situations, investigators can document patterns with timestamps and photos that stand up in court. When someone wants to confirm a partner’s employment or history, we verify quietly and legally. For families trying to reconnect with estranged relatives, investigators work through records and contacts that aren’t easy for the public to access.
​
These are not easy conversations. But having a professional investigator on your side means you’re making decisions with reliable information instead of assumptions.
Surveillance in the Vancouver Context
Surveillance is one of the most effective tools in an investigator’s kit, but it’s not glamorous. It’s long hours, careful observation, and detailed reporting. In Vancouver, surveillance can mean watching patterns at construction sites in Burnaby, monitoring retail activity in Richmond, or tracking behavior in busy neighborhoods like Kitsilano or Yaletown.
Our team is trained to blend in. Whether it’s parked in an unmarked vehicle near a property, walking through a crowded plaza, or sitting quietly outside a suburban residence, investigators know how to watch without drawing attention. And because every member of our team is certified and accountable, all reporting is done to legal standards. That way, the evidence you receive is admissible if needed.
For businesses that want an extra layer of visibility, pairing investigative surveillance with Concierge Services can cover both the behind-the-scenes work and the front-desk presence.
Why Choose a Licensed and Certified Team Led by Law Enforcement Experience
Not every investigation service in Vancouver offers the same credibility. Being led by a former police officer sets our team apart. That background means years of real investigative work, an understanding of criminal behavior, and a deep respect for evidence that will stand in legal settings.
Every member of our staff is certified, trained, and held to professional standards. That combination of leadership and certification ensures clients are protected both ethically and legally.
​
For property managers, that means better tenant screening and reduced risk. For corporations, it means faster resolutions before issues grow into lawsuits. For families, it means peace of mind when the truth feels out of reach.
When paired with services like Home Security or Janitorial Services, investigations become part of a larger support system that keeps properties and people safer.
