Family Law Matters
With the change in the Canada Divorce Act, matrimonial surveillance
dropped by over 80%. This does not mean that a Spouse no longer needs
this type of service but more so, it has defined the need from what used
to be a very broad request. Family Law matters can be very time
intensive. The most common direct request from a spouse usually comes
under the heading of "I NEED TO KNOW". The spouse has a suspicion that
something is not quite right but they don't know for sure. Rather than
taking a big leap and speaking to a lawyer, they request that a firm
such as Golden West Investigative Group Ltd., take a discrete look at
the OUTSIDE THE HOME activities of their counterpart to ascertain if
there are any grounds to their "ill feeling" or is there another
legitimate reason for the un-explained scenarios.-"If in doubt, check it
out" As we said, Divorce evidence surveillance is seldom
requested in British Columbia since the inception of Section 8 (2a) of
the Canada Divorce Act but from time to time, a client may request a
"PEACE OF MIND" surveillance before making a hasty change in their
lives. Family law surveillance is also used when a child is with one
parent and the Visiting parent feels that the well being of the
child is not being looked after in a safe an appropriate manner.- Is the
child being transported in a safe manner. - Are there outside influences
that could be detrimental to the well being and safety of the child. -
Is the child being afforded enough appropriate time to interact with
others to help mould his / her well being and growth...and the list goes
on. With the guidance of your lawyer, this method is also used to
document activities of a parent or relatives spending time with a child
as part of a supervised access agreement. In the past, our investigators
have even been appointed by the court to act as the non-partial access
supervisor.
Pre-Martial Surveillance: When entering a partnership
relationship (proposed marriage), there are times that one of the
parties may be coming into the new marriage with considerably more
assets than the other. It is becoming more common to have pre-nuptial
agreements in such cases. It is also becoming more common for the party
with the greater asset base to hire a firm like Golden West
Investigative Group Ltd to conduct a thorough investigation and
surveillance to make sure that everything is on the up and up before the
marriage occurs. This may sound like a lack of trust but some people
have enough assets to be an EASY MARK for a few unscrupulous people. It
is sad.. but so true in today's world of wealthy entrepreneurs. If
you are entering a new relationship, be sure you know who your other
future half really is. Our Covert operations are primarily
requested by Corporate, Insurance and legal community clients wishing to
document the activities of employees who are off work on sick leave,
injuries (disability and compensation) or for monitoring outside of the
work place activities while on company time.
Please be advised that we do not accept matrimonial assignments
unless the client has a solicitor first. If there is sufficient grounds
to be simply getting the absolute truth, we would prefer to be working
in conjunction with your lawyer with the same goals in mind. In the long
run, it could save you a lot of money.
