Cheating Spouse Investigations in Canberra

If you are reading this you have probably known something was wrong for a while. Our job is not to tell you how to feel about it. It is to establish the facts across Canberra, quietly and without your partner ever knowing, so that you can stop guessing and make a decision with your eyes open. If the answer is that you do not need us, we will tell you that.

Canberra is the national capital and the seat of federal government. Call 1300 773 293 at any hour, or read on for how we handle cheating spouse investigations here.

Working in Canberra

Working in Canberra means understanding a planned city of distinct town centres separated by open space. Our operatives plan around that rather than turning up and hoping. Where a matter runs across several days we rotate vehicles and positions so that a familiar car never becomes part of the scenery.

We work regularly across Belconnen, Woden, Tuggeranong, Gungahlin, Queanbeyan and Civic, and we travel further into Australian Capital Territory where a matter calls for it.

The cost of cheating spouse investigations in Canberra

We would rather talk about money early than surprise you later. Work of this kind is charged hourly with a minimum engagement, and we are upfront about it because the last thing you need is an open ended bill. In many cases a single well chosen window across Canberra answers the question. We would rather tell you that than sell you a week of surveillance you do not need. You can stop at any review point. We do not lock people into blocks they no longer need.

Cheating Spouse Investigations and the law in Australian Capital Territory

It is worth being clear about the legal position. We only use lawful methods. That matters more here than anywhere else. In Australian Capital Territory, the Listening Devices Act 1992 (ACT) controls listening devices, cameras and tracking devices, and using them on a partner without authority can be a criminal offence as well as destroying the value of anything you gather. We will not place a tracker on a car you do not own, we will not record a private conversation we are not party to, and we will not access somebody else’s phone or email accounts. If we are asked to do something that falls outside those rules, we will say no and explain why, and we will suggest a lawful way at the same problem.

This is general information rather than legal advice. If your matter is already before a court, speak to your solicitor about what evidence will assist and we will work to that brief.

About our agency

You are entitled to know who you are hiring. Sydney Private Investigations has been operating since 2002 and trades as GORA Investigations Pty Ltd, ABN 34 600 932 438. We hold NSW Master Licence 412080174 and VIC Master Licence Z6583160S. Work in Australian Capital Territory is conducted in accordance with the territory security industry legislation, and where a locally licensed operative is required we engage one rather than cutting a corner.

We do not use aggressive sales scripts and we do not chase people who decide against proceeding. If the answer is no, that is a perfectly fine answer.

Frequently asked questions

Will my partner find out I hired an investigator?

Not from us. Our operatives are unmarked and our reporting goes only to you, by whatever method you tell us is safe.

Can you put a tracker on their car?

Only where it is lawful, which generally means a vehicle you own. The Listening Devices Act 1992 (ACT) restricts tracking devices and we will not breach it, both because it is illegal and because it would poison your evidence.

What if nothing is going on?

That happens more often than people expect, and it is a genuinely good outcome. We report exactly what we observed, including when we observed nothing of concern.

Will this help in a family law matter?

Australian family law is no fault, so an affair by itself does not change a property settlement. Evidence can still matter for parenting arrangements, for tracing money and for establishing who a child is being exposed to.

How long does an investigation usually take?

Many matters in Canberra are resolved within one to three surveillance sessions. We review with you after each one rather than committing you to a long block.
