Private Detectives Specialising in the Costa del Sol

The Costa del Sol is unique territory for private investigation: more than one million inhabitants, one of the largest foreign-resident communities in Europe, an enormous second-home property market and a tourism and hospitality economy that multiplies the population in summer. Each of those factors generates case types we know thoroughly.

As private detectives on the Costa del Sol, the most frequent assignments we receive are: infidelity and relationship crises, fraudulent sick leave in hospitality and construction, asset investigations into property and undeclared holiday lets in divorce proceedings, pre-matrimonial checks, location of debtors who move to the coast, and verifications for property purchases.

We operate under the TIP authorisation from the Ministry of the Interior and in compliance with Private Security Law 5/2014, so all evidence obtained is fully valid before the courts of Marbella, Fuengirola, Torremolinos, Estepona, Vélez-Málaga and all other judicial districts in the province.
