Strategic Intelligence for Your Most Personal Matters
Our Family Law Investigative Services
Infidelity Surveillance
Doubt is paralyzing. We provide high-tech, low-profile surveillance that documents conduct relevant to an infidelity matter in a format courts and mediators recognize as credible. Our services are inclusive of all relationship types — ceremonial marriage, common law, same-sex, and non-married partnerships. High-definition video documenting inclination and opportunity, maintained to full chain-of-custody standards.
Pre-Divorce Investigations
Before a petition is ever filed, the right intelligence can protect your interests. We help clients quietly establish patterns of conduct, identify undisclosed relationships, and document lifestyle and spending behavior so that you and your counsel enter proceedings fully informed rather than reacting after the fact. Pre-divorce investigations are most effective when initiated before the filing becomes public — giving your legal team the advantage before the process turns adversarial.
Asset Searches & Financial Forensics
Hidden accounts, undervalued business interests, and undisclosed property are common features of contested divorces involving significant assets. We identify what is there, document where it is, and produce findings that give your attorney a foundation for financial discovery requests. Community property that cannot be found cannot be divided fairly — and our investigations are designed specifically to close that gap.
Child Custody, Abuse & Neglect Documentation
Nothing is more important than the safety of a child. In custody, abuse, and neglect matters, we document the conditions and conduct that courts care about: supervision quality, living environment, the presence of unsafe individuals, and adherence to existing court orders. Our findings are gathered lawfully and presented objectively so they can support a parent's case and, above all, protect the child's well-being. We never embellish or editorialize — the facts speak, and we ensure they are documented clearly.
Parental Fitness Investigations
When the fitness of a parent is genuinely in question, objective documentation is the only way to establish or challenge that claim with credibility. We observe and document parenting conduct, living conditions, the people present in a child's environment, and compliance with custody arrangements — providing the factual record a court needs to make an informed decision about a child's placement.
Lifestyle Analysis & Standard of Living Documentation
In contested divorces, establishing the marital standard of living or documenting financial waste can be critical to property division and support determinations. We document spending patterns, lifestyle conduct, and activity inconsistent with claimed financial circumstances — producing objective evidence that your attorney can reference in negotiations or present in court.
Discretion, Objectivity, and Evidence That Holds Up
Domestic investigations require a different kind of discipline than most investigative work. The subject matters are personal, the emotional stakes are high, and the legal standards governing what evidence is actually usable are demanding. An investigation that is conducted carelessly — or one that crosses legal limits — doesn’t just fail to help. It can actively harm your case.
Armstrong Investigations approaches every domestic matter with three principles in place.
Discretion first. Our operational security means our involvement remains known only to those who need to know. We do not take actions that alert a subject, compromise an investigation, or create exposure for our clients.
Objective documentation. We document what we observe. We do not editorialize, embellish, or pursue a narrative. Courts respond to factual records — and so do mediators and opposing counsel. An objective file is more credible and more durable than one that appears agenda-driven.
Admissibility built in. Jasen A. Armstrong holds a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree and brings a law-trained perspective to how evidence is gathered and documented throughout every engagement. Evidence planning is built into the investigation from day one — not added at the delivery stage.
