Custody surveillance in Tennessee
Tennessee family courts decide custody on the child's best interest, and the best interest depends on facts. Pinnacle's private eyes document what actually happens during the other parent's time.
Custody Surveillance handled by a licensed private detective agency
You cannot be at the other parent's house, and the judge will not take your word for what happens there. Custody surveillance is lawful observation, in public view, of a co-parent's conduct during parenting time: who is present, whether the children are supervised, whether drinking or drug use is happening around them, whether the parent is where they said they would be. Pinnacle's private eyes are experienced in Tennessee family court expectations and gather evidence in a way judges respect rather than punish.
We coordinate with your family law attorney on timing and scope, document with time-stamped video and photographs, and write reports that describe rather than editorialize. The evidence speaks for itself.
Situations custody surveillance casework is built for
If one of these sounds familiar, a confidential conversation costs nothing and usually clarifies the next step.
- Children left with people you do not know or trust
- Drinking, drug use or nightlife on parenting nights
- A new partner with a history you are worried about
- Exchanges that happen somewhere other than agreed
- A parent who is never actually with the children during their time
- Concerns the court has dismissed as one parent's word against the other's
