Most individuals that call a private detective have concluded that the spouse is most likely cheating and want proof of the affair.

However, how much proof is needed is to be decided by the caller. Some callers, with no assets and not much at stake, might just need to catch the cheater once and then just walk away!

If the caller needs enough proof for the court, then the investigator would need to advise the caller that to prove that this is happening the cheater should be caught more than once. Most attorneys would agree that just the unexplained absences are indeed not enough and in fact, most attorneys would suggest that the “CHEATER” should be documented at least two times and most reputable attorneys would suggest that they are caught three to five times. (It is wiser to catch the “CHEATER” several times and possibly convince the guilty party to stay away from the court because with a sufficient amount of evidence to prove the adultery, our clients do in most cases find themselves in a better place financially!

Okay, so you have good reasons to believe that your spouse is cheating, and you realize that with sufficient proof you may avoid having to pay spousal support/alimony, forced to sell your home or worse still must move out of the family home!

The other ingredients necessary to prove adultery are as follows:

• Public Display of Affection (PDA)
Physical affection has been defined as, “any touch intended to arouse feelings of love in the giver and the recipient.” Various studies have found physical affection to be associated with positive outcomes in romantic relationships. The behavior is to be documented by a third-party witness (a licensed private detective).

• Time and Opportunity
the measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues: duration
The time to have the opportunity to be with the other person, known as the paramour, and documented by a third-party witness (a licensed private detective).A set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something.
The opportunity to make time to be with the other person, the paramour, such as entering a residence, documented by a third-party witness (a licensed private detective).
Documented time of entry and departure can be associated with an adulterous affair.

• Reasonable Expectation of Privacy
The expectation of privacy is a legal test which is crucial in defining the scope of the applicability of the privacy protections of the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution. It is related to but is not the same as, a right to privacy, a much broader concept which is found in many legal systems (see privacy law).

Child Custody

Child custody and legal guardianship are legal terms which are used to describe the legal and practical relationship between a parent and his or her child, such as the right of the child to make decisions and the parent’s duty to care for the child.
The court will make the final decision of which parent is best suited for the child.
Surveillance on the child’s parent will supply proof to the courts, by independent third-party witness documentation.

• Safety of the child
• Child abuse or neglect
• Drug dealings or use of drugs
• Housing and comfort of the child
