Elverta Surveillance Investigations: Our Specialty
As a Elverta private investigator, surveillance is the core of what we do. We document activity legally, discreetly, and in a way that holds up in court.

Static Surveillance
We hold position at the locations that matter to your case and record activity with time-stamped video.
Two-Investigator Teams
Team surveillance covers multiple exits and keeps a moving subject in sight in heavy Sacramento Region traffic.
Elverta is spread out (about 500 people per square mile), so subjects drive nearly everywhere. Mobile vehicle surveillance, often with two investigators, does most of the work here.
