Surveillance & Observation
When what someone says does not match what happens, surveillance can establish the facts. VIDAR conducts discreet observation for private clients, businesses and legal professionals.
01 / The Service
Establish the facts.
Know where you stand.
We provide mobile surveillance, on-foot surveillance and covert observation where direct evidence is required.
Every assignment begins with the question you need answered. We then determine the appropriate surveillance approach, taking account of the circumstances, legal considerations and practical requirements of the case.
Surveillance is supported by OSINT and other investigative research where useful, helping to establish context around the matter. VIDAR is London based and conducts surveillance assignments across the UK.
On-Foot Surveillance
Close observation in public environments where a subject is travelling on foot, attending locations or moving between meetings and activities.
Covert Observation
Planned observation assignments designed to establish what is happening without unnecessarily drawing attention to the investigation.
Infidelity Surveillance
Discreet surveillance where a client needs to establish movements, meetings or associations and obtain reliable evidence when trust is in question.
Corporate Surveillance
Surveillance for businesses and directors involving suspected misconduct, fraud concerns, employee activity and other matters requiring real-world investigation.
Legal & Litigation Support
Surveillance conducted for solicitors and legal professionals, with structured reporting and court-ready evidence where appropriate.
02 / How We Work
Discreet methods.
Clear evidence.
Surveillance is only useful when it answers the right question. We plan each assignment around the information that needs to be established and keep reporting factual, concise and relevant.
