Private Investigators for Private Clients: Reliable Information for Informed Decisions
At Detectives Garbo, we help private clients who need to verify facts, clarify a personal or family situation and obtain reliable information before making an important decision.
With more than 15 years’ experience in private investigation, our investigators are authorised by Spanish Ministry of the Interior. Every case is assessed individually to determine what can lawfully be investigated, which methods are appropriate and the most proportionate way to obtain the information required.
Our private investigations include cohabitation verification, child custody and contact arrangements, maintenance matters, infidelity, people tracing, asset investigations and verification of conduct, always within the limits of Spanish law.
Based in Mallorca, we also operate regularly in Ibiza, Menorca, Formentera and Alicante, and can work elsewhere in Spain when the circunstance of an investigation require it.
Atl the end of the investigation, the client receives a professional report setting out the facts established and the material obtained lawfully. Where relevant, the report may be used in legal proceedings and the investigators can attend court to confirm its contents.
Private Investigations for Private Clients
Our licensed privated investigators carry out investigations designed to obtain reliable information and document relevant facts in personal and family matters. Where appropriate, lawfully obtained evidence cna be included in a professional investigation report and used in legal proceedings.
At Detectives Garbo, we provide a range of private investigation services for individuals and families, including:
Infidelity Investigations
When there are reasonable doubts about a partner’s behaviour, a private investigation can help establish what is actually happening without relying solely on suspicion.
Our investigators work discreetly and objectively, documenting relevant facts while respecting privacy and the limits imposed by Spanish law.
People Tracing
We assist private clients in locating people when there is a legitimate reason to do so, using lawful investigative methods and available information.
Each tracing enquiry is assessed individually because the information available, the circumstances and the purpose of the search can vary considerably from one case to another.
Asset Investigations
Asset investigations can help identify property, business interest, companies and other relevant economic links where there is a legitimate reason to establish a person’s financial or patrimonial situation.
The scope of the investigation is always defined according to the client’s objective and the information that can lawfully be obtained.
Verification of Conduct
Sometimes the issue does not fit neatly into a standard category. A client may simply need to establish whether a particular behaviour, routine, activity oor situation is really taking place.
In these cases, we define exactly what needs to be verified and design a proportionate investigation focused on obtaining objective information rather than confirming a preconceived suspicion.
Cohabitation Verification
Cohabitation investigations are commonly requested in matters involving maintenance payments, financial arragements following separation or compliance with family court measures.
Through lawful observation and documentation, we can establish whether a person is living on a stable and ongoing basis with another individual when that fact may be relevant to the cient’s legal position.
Child Custody and Changes to Family Arrangements
Private investigators can document facts relevant to child custody, contact arrangements and applications to vary existing family measures, particularly where there are repeated concerns about compliance or a child’s circumstances.
The investigator does not determine what is best for the child or decide the outcome of a case; our role is to document objective facts that may later be assessed by lawyers or the court.
