Case Studies
1. A businessman bought an area of land in a rural area of England and began legitimate business on it. He wanted to build a house on the land, as he was legally entitled to do. Planning permission became difficult and a cabal of influential locals formed up against him. Litigation threatened.
Private Investigators UK were tasked to find out if there was any connection between some of the protesters, investigate the most capable of them and establish what their intentions were how far they had got and how successful they had been.
Checks by Private Investigators UK provided detailed reports on the protestors, their backgrounds, the relationships between them, their intentions and one, tenuous business link between significant figures.
2. A businessman in England was concerned that a German financier had betrayed the confidence of his affairs in Germany. We were able to provide full background on the German, his financial institution and personal history.
3. The same man had resigned his directorship in a UK company. He needed to establish the present size of the company, its staff, building assets, details of the company who had taken it over since and connections with other figures in Scandinavia and Germany.
We were able to fulfill these requirements with detailed reports on the companies concerned, their locations, staff, directors and links to other companies of interest in the UK, Denmark and Germany.
4. The owner of a house in England rented it to tenants whilst abroad. When he returned, he discovered that the estate agents handling the tenant had not collected any rent for some 6 months. The tenant, whose name was Smith, had also disappeared. We found the tenant and litigation began.
But, the tenant disappeared again and we found him, again.
5. A company in the UK found that a former employee had taken important information with him, which he was not entitled to. Litigation was considered, but the man had since moved to Switzerland. The only details the company could supply was a full name.
We found the man and delivered his work address, phone number and private address in Switzerland.
6. An English visitor fell down while visiting
an attraction at a renowned US company. He began
litigation claiming injuries to his leg which
severely impaired him. Surveillance over a 3 day
period showed he had no impairment at all in his
private life and worked happily without any
visible difficulty at a job demanding constant
physical motion standing up.
