Infidelity Investigations
Specialized surveillance for suspected cheating spouses provides factual documentation of marital misconduct. Our discreet operations capture evidence of infidelity through visual documentation and activity tracking. Results help clients make informed decisions about relationships while maintaining complete privacy throughout the investigation process.
Background Checks
Comprehensive background investigations verify personal history, employment records, and character references. We conduct due diligence for pre-marital evaluations, employment screening, and tenant verification. Our reports include criminal record checks, financial history, and social media activity to support informed decision-making for individuals and businesses.

Services include locating witnesses, debtors, or relatives for custody or inheritance cases.

Report
I recommend Edward Michael Investigations because they got results. I wanted to know where my husband of 32 years was going in Texas because I am out of state. The professional experience and follow up provided me answers on the first day of the investigation. I would say this firm is 5 star and I would use them again for my investigation needs. Call Edward Michael, I am very glad I called them.
