In the course of an at-fault divorce or child custody battle, private and personal family matters may be revealed. When it comes to legal proceedings, evidence is needed to prove one’s case. This is where IDEAL investigators can help. We procure evidence to support a spouse’s claims in court.

IDEAL investigators can consult with attorneys to determine what specific evidence is necessary to prove a given case.

If you suspect a cheating spouse, a divorce detective can investigate the situation for you. A private eye can use a variety of techniques to substantiate claims of infidelity. Some of the evidence collected can include photos, video, hotel bills, witness interrogations, recorded conversations, and computer files. In at-fault divorce states, a spouse who sues for divorce due to marital misconduct "typically" is awarded a greater portion of the marital property.

In no-fault divorce situations, community property is to be divided evenly between husband and wife. In some cases, however, one spouse may attempt to hide assets to avoid splitting them. A divorce detective can investigate finances and discover hidden assets such as private bank accounts, unreported income, travelers’ checks, false payments, retirement accounts and more. A divorce investigation may also be necessary to prove that your spouse squandered marital property and should not be awarded half of what remains.
