Working with us
Confidentiality in a private investigation — what it should actually mean
What confidentiality really means when you hire a private investigator in India: data handling, contact protocols and discretion in the field.
Asset verification
Asset verification — why records and reality diverge in India
How property verification works in India, the three gaps that cause most losses, and why a physical inspection is non-negotiable before money moves.
Matrimonial
Post-matrimonial investigation — a practical guide before you commission one
When a post matrimonial investigation is appropriate, what it can and cannot establish, and how the evidence is actually used in Indian matrimonial proceedings.
Where to start
If a marriage is being arranged, read the pre-matrimonial checklist first and the guide to verifying a match second; between them they cover what families most often fail to check. If you suspect something is wrong inside a marriage, the post-matrimonial guide sets out what can lawfully be established and what cannot.
Business owners usually start with the corporate fraud warning signs, then the background-verification red flags for hiring. Anyone comparing agencies should read what a detective agency costs and how to choose one before paying a deposit to anybody.
Reading from outside India? Most of these guides apply unchanged — the difference is how a case is run from abroad, which is covered on our page for clients outside India and, for a match living abroad, on NRI marriage investigation.
