Surveillance is the foundation of many investigations. Whether the question involves an insurance claim, a custody concern, or an employee’s activities, video and observation often answer it more clearly than anything else. Ohio Security & Investigations brings trained surveillance investigators and professional equipment to every assignment in the Mahoning Valley.
What Surveillance Involves
Our investigators observe and document a subject’s activities from public places or locations where they have lawful access. We use discreet vehicles, high quality cameras, and careful planning to capture clear, time stamped video without alerting the subject.
Planning Makes the Difference
Successful surveillance starts before the first hour in the field. We research the subject, confirm addresses and vehicles, study routes, and choose the days and times most likely to produce useful results. Good planning saves hours and keeps the case discreet.
Reports Built for Decisions
Every surveillance assignment ends with a written report and video that explain what was observed, when, and where. Reports are organized so attorneys, claims adjusters, and clients can review them quickly and use them confidently.
Confidential Consultations
Every case at Ohio Security & Investigations begins with a confidential conversation. We listen to your concerns, explain what an investigation can and cannot accomplish under Ohio law, and recommend a plan that fits your goals and budget. You stay informed throughout the case, and your information is never shared without your permission.
