Where most people start

You're not imagining things. Let's find out what's real.

Most people who call us have carried a feeling for weeks. Something shifted, the explanations stopped adding up, and they have gone over it so many times they no longer trust their own read of it.

They don't need a confrontation script. They need someone experienced to help them see the pattern clearly, and to tell them plainly what it does and doesn't mean. That is the benefit of advice from an experienced private investigator.

Whether you found peace of mind or the truth you needed, you are now in a position of power. What you do next is entirely your choice.

Before your hour

Bring what
you've noticed

Gavin goes through the signs and changes you've noticed and explains the conclusions he would draw from them.

After 15 years as a private investigator, he knows how to read patterns in behaviour, and how to tell a genuine warning sign from a coincidence.

  1. 01The changes you've seen, and roughly when they started.
  2. 02Anything about times or places that doesn't add up.
  3. 03How your partner reacts to ordinary questions.
  4. 04What you want to know, and what you would do with the answer.

From Gavin's book

The signs investigators
look for

Gavin's book covers eight warning signs investigators watch for every day. One on its own can be innocent. It's the combination that tells the story.

i.

Phone habits

It's not the phone itself. It's how suddenly the habits around it change.

ii.

Routine changes

New pockets of time you can't account for.

iii.

Communication excuses

The same reasons for being unreachable, again and again.

iv.

Reaction to questions

When simple questions start to land differently.

Plus four more signs Gavin walks you through in your hour, and what they mean together.

Gavin uses a six-level scale, from a hunch to clear evidence, to judge how likely it is that something is going on. In your hour, he helps you work out which level you're at, and what that means for your next step.

Your next move

Getting to the truth, the right way

  1. 01Gavin tells you honestly whether surveillance is the right next step for your situation.
  2. 02Knowing what to look for, and what to leave alone, makes all the difference.
  3. 03The wrong move too early can make the truth harder to find.
  4. 04When surveillance is the right call, you go in knowing what it can show and why it works.

In your hour, Gavin shows you which approach fits your situation.

The lawful line

What we will never suggest

We will never suggest accessing, tracking or monitoring your partner's phone, accounts, car or messages, or recording or following them yourself. As Gavin's book says, accessing someone's phone without permission is illegal in most places. Some of it can also harm you in a family law matter.

Choosing well

Before you hire any private investigator

Whoever you speak to, look for these five things:

  1. 01A current NSW licence you can check yourself. Search the NSW licence register.
  2. 02Clear, upfront pricing.
  3. 03Honest advice about whether you need them at all.
  4. 04Lawful methods only.
  5. 05Confidentiality from the first conversation.

If your situation does call for an investigation, our infidelity investigator page explains how that work is done.

Beyond infidelity

Other matters Gavin can advise on

Not about a partner? Gavin offers the same one-hour phone consultation for family law, workers' compensation, locating someone and suspected bugging.

Family law

Family law and custody matters

  • Worried about your child's welfare in your ex-partner's care.
  • Only what's observable can be documented. Devices inside a home are illegal.
  • Work with your family lawyer, who can advise on disclosure.

Suspected workers' comp fraud?

  • For employers and insurers when a claim doesn't add up.
  • Act early. The longer a claim runs, the more it costs.
  • Accepted claims can still be challenged.

Questions

Questions people ask first

No. It is one hour of advice about your concerns. If your situation won't benefit from surveillance by an investigator, Gavin will tell you honestly.

You talk through what you have noticed. Gavin tells you what he makes of it, walks you through the signs investigators look for, and helps you plan what to do next.

It depends on your situation. Gavin will tell you honestly whether surveillance is the most reliable way to get your answer, and what it can realistically show.

It is a one-hour phone call with Gavin at a time you choose.

It is a paid one-hour session: $297 inc GST from 1 to 30 November 2026, then $397 inc GST. For what a full investigation costs, see our blog article on private investigator costs in Sydney.

When you need lawful evidence you can rely on, or the situation is too risky to handle yourself. In your hour, Gavin will tell you honestly whether you need a private investigator.

There is rarely one clear sign. In your hour, Gavin goes through what you have noticed and tells you honestly what it does and doesn't suggest.

No. We never suggest accessing someone's phone, accounts or messages.

Yes. Everything you share stays private.
