Objective Activity Monitoring & Court-Admissible Evidence
Fraudulent and exaggerated workers’ compensation claims cost employers and insurance carriers millions each year in payouts, legal expenses, and inflated premiums. Verifying the true physical capabilities of a claimant requires discreet, methodical field surveillance conducted by experienced private investigators who operate strictly within legal boundaries.
We provide insurance companies, third-party administrators (TPAs), employers, and defense counsel with objective, verifiable video evidence of claimant daily activities. Utilizing mobile field surveillance, social media intelligence, and activity pattern mapping, our licensed investigators document physical movements, secondary employment, and unstated capabilities. Every investigation yields detailed, timestamped logs and professional reporting structured specifically to support administrative hearings, depositions, and court proceedings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the video footage gathered during workers' compensation surveillance admissible in court?
Yes. All surveillance is conducted by licensed investigators following state laws and clear chain-of-custody protocols, ensuring footage, daily logs, and official reports are fully admissible in administrative hearings and court.
How do you ensure the claimant remains unaware of the investigation?
Our field investigators utilize low-profile surveillance vehicles, long-range optics, discreet equipment, and counter-surveillance tactics to observe and document claimant activities without alerting the subject or neighbors.
What information is needed to initiate a workers' compensation investigation?
Providing the claimant’s full name, home address, physical restrictions, known hobbies, vehicle details, daily routine, and upcoming hearing or deposition dates allows us to plan effective surveillance windows.
How quickly do we receive the investigation report and video footage?
Upon concluding field surveillance, we compile a comprehensive written report with timestamped video stills, chronological activity logs, and original high-definition video files delivered promptly for legal review.
