Private Investigators in Geelong

If you are here, you have probably already tried the obvious things. Sydney Private Investigations has been investigating since 2002. We work throughout Geelong, the second largest city in Victoria and the gateway to the Bellarine and the Surf Coast, and across the wider Victoria region. You will not be judged for asking, and you will not be pressured into proceeding.

Working in Geelong

Working in Geelong means understanding a former manufacturing city now driven by health, education and coastal growth. 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 regularly work across Corio, Belmont, Ocean Grove, Torquay, Lara and Newtown.

Investigation law in Victoria

Before anything starts, you should understand what is and is not permitted. Observation in a public place is generally lawful. Devices are what the law controls. In Victoria the Surveillance Devices Act 1999 (Vic) governs listening devices, optical devices, tracking devices and data surveillance, and licensing of investigators falls under the Private Security Act 2004 (Vic), administered by Victoria Police Licensing and Regulation Division. 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.
