Surveillance & Investigations

Personal Injury Litigation

Since 1984 we have led the market in providing video evidence for use in the defence of fraudulent or exaggerated personal injury claims against public liability and employers liability insurance policies.

Our time and date-stamped surveillance evidence is fully compliant with all relevant legislation. With close to 85,000 tapes currently held within our secure library, our expertise in this field is unrivalled. We stand by the integrity of our surveillance evidence and will willingly submit any cases for forensic examination at any stage of the claims process.

Corporate Investigation

On occasions employees defraud the company for which they work. SIS offer a service to investigate such individuals and provide evidence so they can be dismissed or brought to court.

For example, a director might leave and set up a new company breaching fiduciary and confidentiality obligations. We have the experience to deal with this type of professional malpractice.

Another important service, especially given the growing number mergers, acquisitions and other corporate transactions is our ability to investigate the financial probity and strength of parties to a proposed transaction.

We also have the resources to carry out in-depth investigations into the behavior of individuals who are suspected of theft or fraud.

Income Protection

There are currently estimated to be two million individual income protection policies in existence in the UK. The majority of claims made against such policies are genuine, but inevitably many are spurious. Once a claim is deemed worthy of investigation, SIS understands the need for a rapid and efficient response.

Through developing close partnerships with its clients in this area, SIS understands the importance of investigating and reporting the facts. Our objective is never to disprove a claim, but to identify the truth.

Employee Investigation

Long-term sickness, malingering and moonlighting are detrimental to employers and the economy, while unwarranted early retirement is costing some organisations and their pension funds huge sums of money.

We have extensive experience in this field and have established partnerships with many large employers including local authorities, public services and major manufacturing bodies.

Benefit Investigation

In recent years, the variety and amount of benefit payments made by the state has grown, consequently there has been an increase in the number of cases of benefit fraud.

Benefit fraud is not only expensive to the taxpayer; but also unfairly penalises and stigmatises genuine claimants. The utilisation of SIS's expertise in covert surveillance can help to reduce fraud.

Trace Enquiries & Status Reports

Employers, financial institutions, property management and letting services are among the clients who may need to trace an individual before he or she can be taken to court.

Our nationwide network of highly trained and experienced field operatives and extensive facilities enable us to trace individuals effectively and quickly.
