The Situation
A concerned individual, supported by their wider network, reached out while navigating Family Court proceedings. They suspected that private conversations were being recorded, raising concerns that this could unfairly influence their case.The uncertainty caused significant stress and undermined confidence in the fairness of the process.
Our Approach
We conducted a thorough and lawful investigation to determine whether private communications were being compromised. The enquiry was handled with complete confidentiality and focused on obtaining evidence that could withstand scrutiny in a court setting.Our priority was to establish the facts, protect privacy, and provide our client with the clarity needed to move forward confidently.
What we Found
Our investigation confirmed the presence of a covert listening device and signs that additional equipment had recently been removed from the address.We obtained detailed statements from key witnesses, documented all findings, and compiled an enquiry file suitable for referral to the New Zealand Police.Our client was left with clear evidence, a defined course of action, and renewed confidence in their strategy moving forward.
The Outcome
The client gained peace of mind knowing their concerns had been validated and addressed through a lawful, evidence-based process.They were able to continue their proceedings with assurance that any information influencing their case would now be fair, reliable, and transparently obtained.We also provided advice on next steps and what to expect from a formal Police response, ensuring our client remained supported beyond the investigation itself.
Takeaway for Others
When criminal liability is a possibility, evidence must be gathered and preserved to the correct standard. A professional, impartial investigation not only provides clarity but also restores confidence — allowing people to focus on their case rather than uncertainty or suspicion.
