Discreet Support for Infidelity and Family Law Concerns
JCI’s Matrimonial Investigations Services have helped families resolve their disputes and return to a sense of normalcy. As former law enforcement officers, our investigators have extensive experience with the sensitive nature of marital and family disputes. We will work closely with your legal counsel to uncover the evidence needed to support your case. In addition to uncovering critical information such as a spouse’s real activities, hidden assets, and criminal acts, we provide comprehensive documentation of our findings, providing you and your legal counsel with documented findings that can support informed decisions about the matter.
Matrimonial Investigations & Trial Support for Family Law Cases
In the case of a marital court proceeding, JCI can obtain evidence of misconduct through records checks, interviews, records research, witness interviews, lawful surveillance, and other appropriate investigative methods.. Our findings can be used by your legal counsel in divorce or child custody disputes that require evidence of infidelity, child endangerment or neglect, and financial misconduct. Working with a licensed Private Investigator can help ensure that relevant information is gathered through professional methods and documented for review by legal counsel.
Pre-Trial Fact-Finding and Case Support
In some cases, individuals have engaged our matrimonial investigation services before initiating court proceedings against their spouse. If you believe that your spouse has hidden assets or is participating in criminal activities, it’s sometimes beneficial to start investigating your household and finances before initiating divorce proceedings, in order to begin the process with more leverage. If you are considering a divorce or a child custody action, call us for a free consultation.
How a Marriage Investigator Develops a Factual Record
A matrimonial matter often begins with unanswered questions about a spouse’s conduct, finances, relationships, or daily activities. A marriage investigator can help replace suspicion with verifiable information. Each assignment begins with a confidential consultation to understand the client’s concerns, the status of any legal proceedings, the information already available, and the objectives of the investigation.
JCI then develops a focused strategy based on the circumstances of the matter. Investigative work may include lawful surveillance, public-record and background research, witness interviews, asset-related inquiries, social-media review, or coordination involving digital evidence. The scope can be adjusted according to the client’s priorities, timeline, budget, and the guidance of family-law counsel.
Common Reasons Clients Seek a Matrimonial Investigator
Individuals and attorneys may seek a matrimonial investigator when there are concerns about suspected infidelity, hidden assets, undisclosed residences or relationships, financial misconduct, questionable associations, or behavior that may be relevant to a divorce or other family-law proceeding.
When concerns specifically involve a child’s supervision, living conditions, or safety, JCI’s Child Custody Investigators can conduct a focused investigation and document relevant activity without assuming that either party’s allegations are true.
Investigative Methods Tailored to the Matter
No two matrimonial investigations are identical. Surveillance may help document a subject’s movements and associations, while public records and background research can reveal litigation, property ownership, business interests, criminal history, or other relevant information. Interviews may provide firsthand accounts, and asset-related inquiries can help identify information requiring further review by the client’s attorney.
When texts, emails, online accounts, photographs, or electronic devices are central to the matter, a Forensics Investigator may assist with identifying, preserving, and documenting relevant digital evidence.
Clear Documentation for Family-Law Counsel
Observations, records, photographs, video, interview information, and other findings are organized into a clear chronology and written report. JCI’s role is to document facts rather than offer conclusions based on assumptions or emotion. Reports can be provided to legal counsel for evaluation and, when appropriate, investigators may be available to explain their methods and findings during legal proceedings.
