Child Custody Investigation Services
Leathers & Associates is hired in child custody cases to gather information and evidence that may be relevant to the court’s decision regarding custody arrangements. There are several reasons why a private investigator may be involved:
Gathering Evidence: Private investigators can conduct surveillance and gather information about the parties involved in the custody case. This may include observing their living conditions, daily routines, behaviors, and interactions with the child.
Verifying Claims: In some instances, one parent may make allegations against the other, such as claims of neglect, abuse, or substance abuse. A private investigator can help verify the truthfulness of these claims by conducting interviews, background checks, and surveillance.
Locating Missing Persons: In cases where a parent has disappeared or is intentionally hiding, a private investigator can help locate the missing parent and determine their whereabouts.
Financial Investigations: Private investigators can also delve into financial matters, such as uncovering hidden assets or determining a parent’s financial stability, which can be relevant to child custody decisions.
It’s important to note that the use of a private investigator in a child custody case must comply with local laws and court rules. The evidence gathered must be legally obtained and admissible in court. Additionally, the involvement of a private investigator is not always necessary in every custody case, and its use depends on the specific circumstances and complexity of the case, determined by your attorney.
