When facts matter, hire a licensed Florida Private Investigator. Miami Private Investigations delivers admissible surveillance, infidelity, criminal defense and due diligence work for individuals, attorneys and insurers — across Miami-Dade, Broward and statewide.
Florida law gives licensed investigators access, authority, and admissibility that a do-it-yourself approach simply cannot match.
A licensed Florida Private Investigator can lawfully conduct surveillance, run authorized background checks, locate persons through proprietary databases, interview witnesses, and document findings with chain-of-custody preserved — work the average citizen cannot replicate without crossing legal lines. Florida Statute Chapter 493 governs every step we take, and our procedures are built to keep your evidence admissible in family, civil and criminal court.
Florida is the third-largest state by population with 67 distinct counties and dozens of micro-markets. We deploy local Florida Private Investigators who already know the geography, the courthouses, and the regional rhythms — so we keep response times short, travel costs minimal, and surveillance discreet. From Miami-Dade and Broward through Palm Beach, Orlando, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville and the Panhandle, our footprint is genuinely statewide.
The bulk of our Florida investigation work supports Florida attorneys (criminal defense, family, personal injury, civil litigation), insurance carriers (claims investigation, fraud and SIU support), and corporate clients (due diligence, internal investigations, executive protection vetting). Reports are formatted for direct use by counsel and adjusters, with timestamped exhibits, sworn investigator declarations, and the chain-of-custody documentation the court expects.
Every service below is performed by licensed Florida investigators under Agency License A1800135. Free confidential estimate by phone — most cases launch within 24–48 hours.
Mobile and stationary surveillance with HD covert video, GPS-verified location stamps, and detailed activity logs. We document patterns of behavior — work attendance, vehicle movements, contacts, recreational activity — for use by attorneys, insurers and family-law clients across Florida.
Defense-side investigation work for Florida criminal attorneys — witness canvassing, sworn statements, scene reconstruction, alibi verification, mitigation development, discovery review. We work directly under counsel's privilege, and our investigator declarations are formatted for use in motion practice and at trial.
Scene investigation for Florida personal-injury claims, witness location and statement-taking, sub-rosa surveillance of claimants, AOB fraud verification, and full SIU support for insurance carriers. We document the truth of every claim — supporting legitimate ones and exposing the fraudulent.
Discreet, compassionate investigation for suspected infidelity, custody concerns, child wellness checks, elder care monitoring, and protective surveillance. Florida is a no-fault divorce state, but documented evidence still influences alimony, equitable distribution, and time-sharing decisions in family court.
Enhanced background checks for hiring, business deals, romance verification, and pre-litigation. Florida criminal records, civil filings, federal dockets, professional licensing, social media, asset and lien searches, and corporate ownership tracing — packaged into a clean executive summary your decision-maker can act on.
Statewide Florida process service for summons, subpoenas, garnishments, evictions, and protective orders — including hard-to-serve subjects who actively avoid service. We also handle social-media research for jury selection, trial-exhibit preparation and chain-of-custody handling for digital evidence.
Florida asset searches for collections, divorce, fraud recovery and pre-litigation: real estate, business interests, vehicles, registered watercraft, judgment recovery and hidden-asset investigations. Skip tracing locates debtors, witnesses, lost relatives and missing heirs across Florida and nationwide.
When a family member goes missing, Florida law allows a licensed private investigator to begin work the moment you authorize it — no waiting period required. We coordinate with Florida Department of Law Enforcement, hospitals, shelters and last-known associates while running parallel database and field investigations.
Internal Florida investigations for employee misconduct, harassment claims, workers' comp fraud, intellectual property theft and pre-employment vetting. We work closely with HR and outside counsel, preserving privilege and producing reports that support disciplinary, civil or criminal outcomes.
Every Florida Private Investigator engagement follows the same disciplined four-step process — designed for evidentiary value and budget transparency.
Free intake call. We define your objectives, identify the legal framework, scope the work, and quote a flat rate or hourly estimate before any meter starts running.

Licensed Florida investigators execute the plan — surveillance, interviews, database research, scene work — with timestamped documentation throughout.
Final report with HD video, photo exhibits, sworn investigator declaration, and chain-of-custody documentation — formatted for direct use by counsel.

Florida is one of the strictest states for private investigator licensing. Here's what to verify before hiring any Florida PI.
Miami Private Investigations holds an active Class "A" Private Investigative Agency License issued by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), Division of Licensing.
Under Chapter 493, Florida Statutes, every Florida private investigator agency must hold a Class A license, and every individual investigator must hold a Class C or CC license. Hiring an unlicensed person to do investigative work in Florida is a third-degree felony — for both the investigator and the client.
"Delivered crucial surveillance footage that shifted our litigation strategy. Professional, fast, and the report was ready for direct use in our motion."
"Discreet, responsive, and compassionate during a very difficult infidelity case. They handled it with more care than I expected. I would absolutely recommend them."
"We received clear answers and admissible documentation for our pre-litigation due diligence. Worth every penny — and the response time was exceptional."
Everything we get asked on the first call — answered up front.
Florida private investigator rates typically range from $85 to $250 per hour depending on case complexity, technology required, and number of investigators. Surveillance with two investigators and HD covert recording starts around $150/hr. We provide flat-rate quotes for background checks, process service, and asset searches. Free confidential estimate by phone.

A licensed Florida private investigator can conduct surveillance in public places, interview witnesses, perform background and asset searches via authorized databases, locate missing persons, serve legal process, and document evidence for use in court. We cannot wiretap, hack, trespass, or impersonate law enforcement — those activities are illegal under both Florida and federal law.

Most cases begin within 24 to 48 hours of consultation. Urgent surveillance, missing persons, and emergency process service can often launch within hours when a Florida investigator is already in the target area.
We collect evidence with chain-of-custody documentation, time-stamped photo and video, and detailed investigator declarations — all formatted for use by Florida attorneys in family, civil, and criminal proceedings. Your attorney makes the final admissibility determination.
Absolutely. Florida licensed investigators operate under strict confidentiality. Your name, your matter, and your investigation are never disclosed without written authorization, and intake calls are protected information.

Yes. Infidelity surveillance is one of the most common matters we handle in Florida. We document patterns, vehicle movements, and meetings with HD covert video — preserving evidence whether you choose reconciliation, divorce, or custody proceedings.
