Usually, there are no direct evidences against adultery and it has to be proven with the help of circumstantial proofs such as photographs of the spouse with a third person at secluded place where they may get intimate or at places like hotels where they may get an opportunity for physical relationship. Since, it is difficult to have an eyewitness to prove an illicit relationship; it can be proved indirectly by showing evidences such as hotel bills or travel records. Also, their public display of affection or their letters, SMS's etc. can be also be used as evidence against the offending party. In India, divorce can be easily granted on the basis of adultery once it has been proved in the court.
If you are married and you suspect your significant other, someone confirming the affair is not enough. You will need documentation that can be taken to trial if you make the decision to divorce.

1. Adultery Surveillance Case Study
A concerned husband solicited our services. He told us that he is beginning to suspect his wife is cheating on him. He expresses his concern to her, and asks her if this is true.
Summary:
A concerned husband solicited our services. He told us that he is beginning to suspect his wife is cheating on him. He expresses his concern to her, and asks her if this is true. The wife vehemently denied she was having an affair, but her peculiar behavior continued. The husband was still suspicious and as a result, began to intercept his wife's emails and text messages. He found she was corresponding with a certain man, and the messages included pledging their love to one another.
One evening the wife told her husband that she had business to conduct in another city, and would be traveling for few days. The city where she was traveling was where the husband believed the boyfriend resided.
The husband needed visual proof that his wife was, in fact, having an affair. When the husband spoke with the Case Analyst at VIS, he told him that if his fears were confirmed, then he would file for divorce and for sole custody of their two children. During the free consultation with the Case Analyst at VIS, the client (with the expert help of the case analyst) determined the best action plan for the situation. Surveillance would be the best way to validate the husband's fears. He could not rely on his wife to be honest about the affair because she had already fervently denied it.
An unfaithful mate is devastating, and suspicions without proof make it even harder to comprehend and move on.
The husband, with the guidance of case manager, provided us with his wife's flight information, including airline, airport, and date and time of travel. The goal was to have a team of investigators positioned at the airport where the wife was to land, and to document if she was meeting her lover.
After the wife's flight arrived, our team took discreet position at all exit points. The woman was greeted by her lover, and they embraced and hugged each other. They continued to walk to the parking area, hand in hand. Our team was able to provide video documentation of the public displays of affection.
Conclusion:Although the worst fears of the husband had been validated by confirming that his wife had indeed been unfaithful to him, he was very grateful for the precise action that was taken by VIS. With his desire to know the truth, and our commitment, he was able to make a decision that was best for him and his children.
2. Cheating Husband Caught via Facebook
Social networking sites have become breeding grounds for infidelity, and it can be difficult for a concerned husband or wife to determine when to worry about their partner's Internet use or Facebook activity, which is why people often turn to VIS to find out exactly what is going on.
Summary:
In a cheating spouse investigation recently solved by VIS, a concerned wife suspected that her husband was cheating online, using the Internet to meet women and set dates. The client suspected that her husband had several extra-marital relationships being maintained through Facebook, but she did not feel comfortable confronting her husband about his Internet activity. The client does not know her husband's Facebook password, and is unable to access his account on her own.
Conclusion:VIS was hired to determine if the husband was actually cheating, which was accomplished by investigating the activity on accounts owned by the husband. In an attempt to catch the husband in the act of cheating, we gathered information on the husband's likes and dislikes, which allowed investigators to create a case action plan tailored specifically to the this social networking site and the desires of the husband.
We approached the subject through Facebook utilizing an online cheating decoy. The husband fell for the bait immediately, and within an hour had sent personal messages, initiating an intimate dialogue. The husband was completely unaware of the fact that he was under investigation by VIS, and quickly moved the conversation towards more intimate matters. A romantic date was set, and explicit details about what would happen on the date were shared, leaving no doubt about the intentions of the husband.
During the online conversation, the husband was asked if he was single or married. The husband lied, claiming that he was married but separated, and no longer speaking with his wife. The information collected throughout the investigation, including the Facebook dialogues, was reported and presented to the client in a timely and accountable manner. The client used our report , along with evidences, to move forward with divorce proceedings.

We cannot reveal the exact modus-operandi but it is a mix of various modus- operandi such as surveillance, observation, discreet inquiries, social media analysis, use of spy gadgets, etc. But we do not make inquiries from subject's friends, relatives or neighbors as their opinion may be prejudice and the subject would know that someone is enquiring about him / her.
3. Is it necessary to disclose my identity?

VIS can help you with a thorough and discreet divorce related investigations such as evidence on infidelity , child custody issues, income / financial / asset details - as required in maintenance / alimony claims, medical records, bigamy, earlier divorce documents, etc.
When it comes to legal proceedings, it's usually necessary to gather evidence to prove your case. Although in many instances the information gathered in a divorce investigation is for no other reason than to provide the client with peace of mind, the evidence collected is often used in court proceedings.
A spouse may sometimes attempt to hide assets in an effort to avoid splitting them. As part of a divorce investigation, VIS can investigate a spouse's finances and discover hidden assets such as bank accounts, unreported income, hidden/undisclosed assets and more. Getting evidence on gainful employment is usually required in most of the cases which is later on produced in court. Evidences, along-with the investigation report, is acceptable in the court.

VIS assures all our clients that the information gathered in our investigations will be documented in detail along with supporting photographs and/or audio/video recordings whenever possible, and of course, your information will always be kept in the strictest confidence.
1. Husband with Hidden Assets in a Divorce
Summary:
In the private investigation field, and as a company, many of our cases deal with couples that are divorcing. VIS is an invaluable part of each client's lives, whether it is in the form of surveillance or hidden asset search. It is becoming all too common that spouses search out our services so they can know the truth.
A woman was divorcing her husband, and she wanted to know what type of financial compensation she was entitled to. The husband claimed to her, their lawyers, and the court, that he did not have any money. The wife knew he was lying, and that their entire life savings could not have disappeared into thin air. She knew he was hiding the money, but where?
The client called VIS and spoke to a Case Analyst for a free consultation. The Case Analyst presented to the client that the easiest way to verify if the subject was hiding money would be to conduct a 'hidden asset investigation' which generally includes searches on property, vehicles, businesses, shares, mutual funds, fixed deposits, cash, gold, etc. The premise of the inquiries that are conducted is to discover current assets a subject may have.
Our objective was to locate any stock, bonds, or additional bank accounts that the subject may have. A comprehensive bank search revealed that the subject had few undisclosed bank accounts with a substantial amount of money. A nationwide search was conducted in an attempt to locate any stocks or bonds. This search proved to be the most lucrative because the subject had a considerable amount of money invested in mutual funds.
Conclusion:
It is disconcerting, to put it mildly, that a wife cannot expect her husband to be honest. The information that VIS discovered was given to the client, and in turn to her lawyer. Her lawyer was able to provide the court with documentation that what the subject reported as assets was false. Because our private investigation work and findings can be used in a court of law, the judge ruled in favor of giving 50% of the assets that VIS uncovered to the wife.
2. Child Custody and Visitation Investigations
Summary:
A distraught mother of two contacted VIS out of desperation. She was in the process of a divorce, and had been fighting with her husband over future custody arrangements. In retaliation, her husband threatened to take the children out of the country and begin a new life. The mother's panic mounted because he was scheduled to have the children for the weekend.
It was determined that conducting surveillance would be the best course of action. We decided to arrange for two-agent surveillance teams, consisting of two surveillance specialists to be placed on the father at all times. The investigators were instructed to capture video and photo documentation.
The surveillance began at the father's place of employment, and he was followed in order to maintain constant visual contact. The surveillance tail began as he left his work to pick up his children (allowed by the court ordered visitation arrangements), with visual contact being maintained by both agents. The investigators are trained to rotate positions of visual contact with the subject. This type of surveillance measure reduces the exposure the investigators experience with the subject. The investigators were able to document the father each time he left the house with the children and followed him to various locations, such as the market, the video store, etc. Constant communications were kept with VIS base operations. In the event the subject gave any indication of leaving the country, investigations base was ready to deploy a backup team and coordinate with the client and law enforcement agency. Video documentation was kept as a precaution: if the father attempted to leave the country, the client would have solid proof. This type of mobile surveillance would provide the police and other legal entities with powerful evidence if the father did in fact try to flee the country.
The case manager assigned to the case gave the client multiple surveillance status updates over the weekend. He was diligent in keeping in constant communications with his investigative team as to the father's movements. As a result of a dedicated surveillance team of VIS investigators, in conjunction with the VIS base operations, case manager, case analyst, and a caring mother, her fears of losing her children had been allayed and piece of mind was achieved. This allowed her to comply with the court order and reduced the chances of a much more adverse scenario.
3. Divorce and Child Support Case Study
A husband and wife were in the midst of a heated divorce and custody battle. The husband was ordered to pay child support to his wife. However, he responded to the court that he was unable to do so because he did not have the financial means necessary to comply with such order.
Summary:
Divorce and custody issues are always a very sensitive subject and need to be approached with kid like gloves. It is imperative that emotions remain neutral and objective when determining whether there is cause for concern. A husband and wife were in the midst of a heated divorce and custody battle. The husband was ordered to pay child support to his wife. However, he responded to the court that he was unable to do so because he did not have the financial means necessary to comply with such order.
The wife was suspicious that her husband would not be able to comply with a court order of paying child support, as he had worked previously during their marriage and his father owned a health food store inside of a fitness gym. The client wanted evidence that would substantiate that her husband was either able to work or was already doing so.
A recon investigation was devised to go to the subject's fathers store and observe whether he was there. The investigator arrived at the gym wearing his workout clothes and proceeded to the treadmill that was in plain sight of the store. He spent 45 minutes jogging at a rhythmic place until he spotted a male matching the subject's description. The investigator then proceeded to the health food stand, with his covert camera watch. The investigator began immediately video taping the subject with his watch, and documented his actually working at the store.
Conclusion:
The client was grateful to VIS for their tenacious investigation, and presented the court with the necessary video evidence that her estranged husband was not only capable of working, but he was working and therefore able to comply with the financial aspect of child support.
Surveillance is the monitoring of behavior without the target being made aware that they are being monitored, and tailing is a specific method of following an individual to gather information about their activities.Surveillance serves many purposes, and it is a more simplistic way to gather information about a person without raising any red flags or making them aware that someone is looking into their daily life.
Maybe you just want to get a sense of how someone is spending their day? Or you think your spouse isn't being honest about his whereabouts? Maybe you want to find out what your competitors are up to? Or find out if your employees really are sick when they call in with a sore throat? Or you need to keep watch on your child. Surveillance can come in handy for a number of reasons, and the investigators at VIS are experienced in all of them.

Surveillance Detection Services are used as a countermeasure to determine if someone is conducting surveillance on you.
Surveillance Detection is designed to determine whether, how, and by whom you are being watched, and even for what purpose.
Surveillance is a generic term for all types of watching and monitoring. One definition is the secret, continuous, periodic watching of persons, vehicles, places or objects to obtain information concerning the activities and identities of individuals. At its heart, surveillance is an information gathering endeavor, and the purpose behind surveillance can vary significantly. But surveillance is not limited to just being watched in public. Advanced surveillance techniques include wiretaps and bugging, eavesdropping devices, hacking, hidden cameras, and more. The more advanced and technological the people doing the surveillance are, the more sophisticated your detection services will have to be. At VIS, we have access to the most state-of-the-art technology available for surveillance detection.

The term "missing person" is used to refer to people who have been abducted, or who have disappeared on their own accord, and law enforcement investigations follow a specific protocol depending on the circumstances.
Law enforcement agencies follow a very specific set of guidelines for dealing with reports of missing persons. An immediate assessment is made as to the risk level of the missing person, with a high risk designation being used most commonly for young children whose lives may be in imminent danger. Unfortunately, despite a national database for missing persons information, and a number of organizations dedicated to such investigations, resources are still stretched thin. If your loved one has gone missing, you owe it to them and to yourself to use every means necessary to find them. The last known place where the missing person was seen will generally be treated as the crime scene, and the investigation will grow from there

A land ownership and title investigation can be very diversely. It might involve an assets search, witness interviews, surveillance, and even (in extreme cases) personal security and protection service. Instead of paying a separate fee to a separate contractor for each service, you can save yourself considerable time and effort by simply retaining someone who can provide you with everything you need from the outset. VIS does exactly that for you.

Before you sign any paperwork, call VIS and get a free consultation about your transaction. We have access to expert investigators around the globe who can find out exactly what you are buying, who owns it, and what sort of encumbrances it may include.

1. Client Reunites With Lost Girlfriend
A VIS Client had lost contact with a girlfriend he was seeing 10 years ago. His recent ex-girlfriend forbid him to talk to this girl while the two of them were dating. He had since forgotten her last name or contact information. He only had a first name, a 5 year window of graduation from a business school in Pune and an area of possible business interest for the girl. The client wanted VIS to find the girl and get him in contact with her. VIS investigators cross referenced the name with school information, towns around the school and the area of business interest. The girl was found to be living in Pune and was employed by a fortune 500 company. The client was beside himself. Contact was made with the girl through a coworker to verify who she was. It was indeed her. The client had been searching for her for more than two years before hiring VIS.
If you are facing a similar type of situation, just remember that we offer free consultations for all our clients and their cases. No case is too big or too small. We will work with you to get the results you are looking for.
2. Missing Pet Investigations
If your prized pet has gone missing, run off or was stolen, a missing pet investigation may be necessary to recovery it.
Whether your prized pet goes missing – whether it ran off, was nabbed by a wild animal, or was stolen – a missing pet investigation may be necessary to recover it.
The bond people form with their pets is often quite strong, and the emotional trauma of losing one's prized pet can far outweigh any monetary loss. But the reality is that even cautious owners may lose their pets. In certain regions where wildlife such as coyotes, birds of prey, and even bears roam the areas, there is a risk of wild animals nabbing smaller pets from your yard. Purebred dogs are often targeted by animal traffickers who will hop your fence to steal your valuable breed.
Exotic animals are more rare, and they are not only more inclined to attempt to escape, but are frequently targeted by thieves. An additional risk is added with shy and skittish animals who may evade private investigators without experience in handling pets. For that reason, it is critical to the success of the investigation that you hire a private investigator who is experienced with all types of pet and missing pet investigations. At VIS, we have investigators who are very skilled with pets, and who know how to handle themselves around all sorts of pets, both common and exotic. Call us today for a free consultation before your pet is able to get too far from your home.
Our Investigations Include the followingMissing and lost pets can cause a great deal of emotional damage to a pet owner. You owe it to yourself and to your pet to use every means necessary to recover your lost pet. Even if it's simply a case of a dog who wandered off and was planning to return, you may need to hire a private investigator to find the lost dog before something bad happens to it. If your exotic, rare, or purebred pet has been stolen to be sold in the black market, the need for an investigator is even greater, and you will need to act immediately. No matter the issue, VIS has the experience and the skill to handle any missing pet case. All you have to do is call us and provide as much information about the animal and possible, and we will get started as soon as possible.
Background Checks for Online Dating: Before taking the next step of meeting in person, consider hiring VIS for a noninvasive background check on your potential mate. VIS can give you the peace of mind and confidence to proceed into the next step in your relationship.
More and more people are finding partners through online dating services. Before you take your online relationship to the next step and meet in person, you should know with whom exactly you are dealing with a background check.
Online dating gives you the opportunity to learn a great deal about a person before you ever meet in person, but it requires a lot of trust. How do you know if your online friends are who they say they are? How many people will actually confess to past crimes or indiscretions when trying to attract a new partner? Do not let yourself become a victim of a Catfish scheme. If you think you are finally ready to meet the online person of your dreams, call VIS first. Our investigators will do a background check for online dating to make sure that you are safe and that you can trust the person you are leaving your comfort zone to meet. Choosing a partner usually has a profound effect on the rest of your life, and we can help make sure that you are choosing someone whose effect will be a positive one.
You can always do a Google search of your potential date, but that will not tell you who a person really is. VIS has access to far more important details that will paint the whole picture.
Are You In Need?
If you are tired of trying to meet people in bars and clubs and have decided to go online to find the next special someone, then you might be at risk. There is no way to know who is actually on the other end of your emails, even if they seem perfectly genuine and sincere. The internet is a perfect place for identity thieves as well as violent and sexual criminals to find their next victim. Don't let yourself walk into a very dangerous situation without knowing all of the available facts, first. Call VIS for a background check before you venture out to meet your online partner, and let us protect you before it is too late.
Making the choice to search out your birth parents can be a life changing decision. VIS is passionately dedicated to making this search as quick and easy as possible. Allow us to do the work to find not only your parents, but as much detail as you want about them, for you. We have been locating and reuniting adopted children with their birth parents for over 53 years.
Children who know that they have been adopted are haunted by uncertainties. Why didn't my biological family want me? Does either of my parents miss me? Does my mother remember me on my birthday? Have I inherited some condition or predilection that I need to be aware of to protect my health and well-being? Do I have siblings that might be happy to know me? Yes, an abundance of questions exist post adoption for all concerned, but the answers are often allusive, and presumably unattainable.
There are a few things to consider throughout our search:
Name Change:
In a quest for someone to find a biological (birth) parent, it is essential to consider the possibilities of a name change. This is more specific to finding a birth mother, as a marriage or divorce can change the last name. Not having such information could cause unnecessary stress and discouragement in the search. When possible, get as much information on both birth parents as humanly possible. The more information obtained prior to the search, the easier it can be to get the results that are being sought.
Documents:
The best way to be familiar with the adoption process is to review the documents that would be used in an adoption. This can be used as a guide to the information needed in finding a biological parent. If the entire or most of the paperwork can be filled out, then enough information is probably retained to begin the search. If there is not enough information available, it may be necessary to get more info before continuing in the search. The adoptive parents may be able to assist in this part of the search. If they are unwilling, then any information you have on them may be helpful in finding the adoption agency they may have used and through that possibly track it back to the birth parent.
In learning about the adoption process, it is important to seek advice and information, and become familiar with the many agencies and resources available. Find all of the available records in the state, county, local and national facilities where the child was born. It can be overwhelming, but persistence can pay off. In the Directory section of the State and National Records, some useful information can be found, and help in finding answers to some of the questions that were not answered up until this point. The records should have valuable and useful information on the location of the birth parents at the time of the child's birth.
Some key information to have for a more effective search will be the birth parents names. Find out if the biological parents were married to one another. The location they lived in around the birth of the child that was put up for adoption. If able to find the location of the birth parent or parents find out if they have or had family in the area they lived in. Sometimes a physical description will be in the original adoption paperwork, which can be useful in a search. The occupation each birth parent had around the time of the birth of the child is also useful.
Age:
Ages or approximate ages of the birth parents can help weed out leads of potential biological parents. Try to determine the religious background of either of the biological parents, if that is available, it can be helpful in going to the place of worship and possibly get leads on the birth parents whereabouts now. Medical issues and background can help in locating them now, if there was a pre-existing issue around the birth of the child. The birth parents reason for relinquishing rights to the child can also give an idea to where they might be presently.
It is not as essential to have all pertinent information about the biological father. It can sometimes be easier to locate the birth father because it is very uncommon for a man to change his name. It can be more difficult if the important information for the birth mother is not complete. Most of the records pertaining to the adoption will be in the birth mother's name. It is still very good to get as much information about both of the birth parents as possible. The more information that is know the easier the search should be.
With adoption, some states provide confidential intermediaries, but they are hard to use and find. We are able to help you with these as part of our involvement with these investigations.
As an adopted child, you probably have a psychological "need to know." You may even have an urgent need to learn about your biological heritage and the genetic forces that can mean the difference between health and illness or, sometimes, life and death.
VIS can help you find answers to many of your questions about your past and birth parents. Many times free adoption searches exist to help you. We will use these, our leverage as private investigators, our experience, and our resources to help you with this discovery process.

With smartphones functioning more like computers, spyware has become an increasing threat to cell phone users. If you think someone has put spyware on your cell phone, contact VIS for a free consultation to find out how we can remove the malicious software for you.
Cell Phone Spyware is a term for software that has been installed by a third party on a cell phone so that it transmits information, data, audio and even video signals to that third party, unbeknownst to the cell phone's owner.
Cell Phone Spyware Detection falls under the general category of Technical Surveillance Countermeasures ("TSCM") , which is the practice of protecting you from any sort of electronic, digital or analog listening, monitoring, or recording devices that may have been placed on your personal property without your knowledge. Cell phone spyware is generally a software program that an eavesdropper will install on your phone, but it can also be hardware such as a microchip. Sweeping for cell phone spyware may require advanced technology and techniques, and the technicians at VIS are fully capable of finding even the most sophisticated spyware and neutralizing it. Call us today for a free consultation!
Signs that your cell phone may have had spyware installed:
You do not have to be a celebrity or an important political figure or even a big time business man for people to want access to your cell phone. Cell phone spyware can be used to steal banking information, monitor your activities for market research or social media trends, or anything else under the sun. With how much of our lives are spent on cell phones, it is easier than ever to monitor or daily activities by someone with a little technical know-how. Finding how who is monitoring you and putting a stop to it is quite a bit harder. If charges are showing up on your bank account or credit card, or if you find that confidential information is somehow being obtained from your personal accounts, then you likely have spyware installed on your phone. Call VIS immediately before you lose too much!
Computer spyware is typically malicious in nature and can compromise your personal data. If your machine is acting abnormally you should have the computer checked for Spyware.
Spyware is a software that secretly gathers information from a computer and sends it to a third party without consent, or that asserts control over a computer without its owner's knowledge. Spyware is a form of hacking, though it is often sent out en masse through email chains, or passively through websites and other links that people may be duped into clicking on.
There are several type of spyware, and all of them infect the software code of their target computers. To remove it, it may take a sophisticated technician who understands operating system source code and who knows how to identify the signs of infection. At VIS, we have Computer Spyware Detection technicians who are very knowledgeable and highly skilled at their craft, and we use the most sophisticated detection software and techniques to make sure that your computer stays safe and private. If you fear that your computer has been infected, then do not waste any more time. Call VIS today for a free consultation!
Types of Spyware:
Uses for Spyware:
Computer spyware is very easy to pick up accidentally, simply by clicking on a malicious link or opening an infected email. Spyware has gotten more and more sophisticated, and many versions are able to replicate themselves automatically by asserting control over a user's computer and sending itself out to everyone in that person's contact book, for example. The majority of personal computers are likely to have some form of spyware unknowingly installed on them. At best, they may slow down your computer to the point of frustration, and at worst, they may be stealing vital information from your files. Either way, you should get rid of it quickly by calling VIS and allowing our technicians to clean your computer and protect it from future attacks.

Our trained experts have been solving murder cases since 1962, and are standing by to take on your case.
Murder can be one of most difficult crimes to solve, and the police often don't have the time or resources available to solve every case that comes across their desk, especially in areas with high violent crime rates. When police become overwhelmed with too many murder cases, their closure rate goes down as they struggle to stretch limited resources even further.

Murder investigations are time sensitive, so it is important to contact VIS before physical and forensic evidence is lost or degraded over time. Every murder case is different, so you will need to discuss the details that are specific to your case with a private investigator from VIS during your free consultation. It can be very painful to talk about the murder of a loved one, especially if the murder occurred recently, but in order to move forward with your investigation, we will need to know the answers to these questions and more:

There are few things that inspire more dread than cults and the occult. It's often very difficult to get information about the practices of such organizations, and this is even more worrying because such groups very often have abusive and criminal practices. The very word, occult, comes from the Latin for "hidden" and "concealed." But they won't stay that when you get VIS involved!
Sects and Cults can be very dangerous, sometimes fanatical and extremist groups that will mislead, manipulate, deceive, and brainwash recruits so that they will join their cause.
Joining a cult or a religious sect can have serious consequences to a person's financial wellbeing, emotional health, personal relationships, professional career, and even their health and safety. Often, recruits do not even realize that they are being brought into a cult or a sect, because they are manipulated into believing in some fanatical cause. If you fear that your loved one has been recruited to a cult or an extremist group, do not waste any time. Call VIS today and let us put our team of Private Investigators to work for you. We will provide objective information and start the process of reversing the brainwashing that the group has performed on your loved one. We offer free consultations.
Reasons for Suspicion of a Family Member or Loved One
If your loved one has suddenly cut off previously important relationships, is acting strangely after joining a new group, or has removed him or herself from the community and moved to a commune away from civilization, then your fears may be justified. Cults and sects are often led by charismatic, but mentally ill individuals who can convince recruits to join their cause, sometimes leading to substantial harm to themselves and the public. Call VIS today for a free consultation, and we will find the necessary information to begin a healing process that will reverse the cult brainwashing effect on your loved one.

According to Survivors of Stalking, "each year an estimated 1.5 million men, women and children are stalked in India." Stalking is definitely a problem in this country. Internationally countries lack the laws and enforcement and predators have little or no fear from policing agencies. Many times cultural norms will encourage if not condone completely, stalking and harassment like behaviors. However, if you believe you are a victim of an advanced or beginning threat you should take action now. You must take decisive action before the situation elevates out of control.
Stalking and harassment are crimes that are often ignored by law enforcement or just dealt with by those being harassed or stalked. This is a loosing battle as you will do nothing but incite a game response.
From threatening phone call tracing to counter-surveillance we can assist you in stopping the threat through prosecution.
People generally don't take action until the problem gets very serious. We assess threats, review all current facts, and build a case accordingly. Apprehension can be made once law enforcement is fully aware of the evidence and location of stalker or harasser.
Whether you are a high-profile personality or not, VIS treats stalking and harassment seriously. Since 1962, we have discovered, uncovered, and brought to law enforcement--or ended--stalking and harassment.

If you are the victim of extortion, blackmail, or exaction, please call VIS. Do not wait too long to begin your investigation with VIS because the longer you wait, the greater the risk is that you will be extorted again.
Extortion is the illegal act of unlawfully obtaining money, property, services, or information from a person, company, organization, or other entity through coercion. Exaction takes it one step further by threatening, actually inflicting pain or suffering, or forcing someone to endure something unpleasant.
Extortion and exaction may be isolated incidents, or they may be ongoing threats to you or your company. Extortion is not to be confused with blackmail, however. Blackmail generally involves the threat of legal, but unfavorable, action – such as revealing true but embarrassing information about you – to coerce you, while extortion involves the threat of illegal action – such as threats of physical harm or violence – to coerce you. If you are being extorted, or fear that someone may extort you, then call VIS immediately for a free consultation. Do not let the threat of extortion or exaction weigh on you any longer. Our expert investigators have a proven method for tracing the threats back to their source and putting a stop to them.
