Surveillance Operational Procedures:

Case Assignment:　You submit an investigative request by fax, email, or by arranging an in person interview. Most insurance fraud surveillances or personal injury surveillance investigations are scheduled for a minimum of 3 to 5 consecutive 10-hour days, usually beginning at 6:00 a.m. in residential neighborhoods to avoid compromising the investigation.

Domestic surveillance, e.g.: child custody, cheating wife / husband, and elder abuse surveillance will require taylored surveillance strategies.

Letter of Confirmation:　You will receive a letter or e-mail confirmation for the purpose of clarifying and confirming the investigation objectives, dates, times, special instructions, and the agreed rate.

Preliminary Review:　Each case is individually reviewed and assigned to an experienced private investigator. The private investigator will assess the case and then make recommendations so that the most cost effective and reasonable methods are utilized to conduct the investigation.

Pre-Surveillance:　The subject’s name, date of birth, address and registered vehicles are first confirmed. Then a comprehensive background investigation can also be conducted if requested. On-site Pre-surveillance:　The private investigator will arrive in the vicinity of the subject’s residence and conduct a neighborhood canvass to determine subject’s probable travel routes, appropriate surveillance positions, and if more than one private investigator will be required to conduct the surveillance investigation effectively.

On-site Surveillance: After the private investigator obtains a suitable stationary location the surveillance is initiated and video documentation of the subject’s activities and the area are obtained. When the subject departs the area, mobile surveillance is initiated. If the subject walks into public locations such as a fitness center or a shopping mall, the private investigator will initiate surveillance on foot and obtain hidden video documentation of the subject’s activities. The private investigator will provide you an update at predetermined times and make recommendations, when appropriate, so that the most cost effective and reasonable methods are utilized to successfully conduct the investigation. The private investigator will maintain surveillance on the subject until activities cease for the day, unless otherwise directed by the client.

Final Procedures: When the private investigator terminates the surveillance, the video is reviewed, a written report is prepared, and both are submitted to our office. The private investigator’s report and video will be reviewed and checked for accuracy. Our office will then begin to duplicate and label the video into the client’s preferred media format and the original video will remain in OnVideo's possession unless otherwise directed. The final report, video and invoice will be shipped to our client
