Why an alimony investigation?
Once the court made a decision regarding alimony for your children and/or yourself. That amount was calculated based on the living and working conditions of all parties involved at the time.
What if those conditions drastically change suddenly? The court should receive an honest report of this, so the alimony amount can be revised. But this often doesn’t happen.
Alimony investigation provides clarity, if you suspect that your ex-partner’s situation has changed such that you are paying too much alimony or receiving too little money unjustly.
Detecting alimony fraud: is it allowed?
Investigating alimony fraud is completely legal, as long as the investigative actions stay within the bounds of the law.
Following people in public to track their behavior and time expenditure is perfectly permissible, for example.
The main objective of this investigation is to gather as much evidence as possible in a legally valid manner. Therefore, it’s best to be assisted by experts who know the rules of the game.

Investigate alimony fraud: what and how?
1. Intake conversation
Our private detective listens completely without obligation to your story. Together with you (and your lawyer), we determine how Buytaert & Partners can be of service to you.
