SURVEILLANCE & COUNTER SURVEILLANCE

​

Surveillance is nothing like in the movies. We use a combination of techniques, unique to Axiom Investigations. 

​

BACKGROUND CHECKS

​

Googling someone is not a background check. We use several databases the regular public does not have access to. We can search civil, criminal, driving, and asset records, as well as social media accounts. A more in-depth Background Investigation can help with employment vetting, prospective business deals, rentals, romance scams, premarital and cohabitation protection. Often, the information we uncover after the damage is done was there for the finding all along.

​

CORPORATE INVESTIGATIONS

​

Employee theft and fraud cost Canadian businesses and corporations millions of dollars each year.  We do all types of corporate investigations, including employee conduct, injury claims, non-compete clauses, theft or time, sexual harassment, legal exposure, and competitor conduct.

​

PROSPECTIVE PARTNER OR PRENUP INVESTIGATIONS

Googling someone is not a background check. Let's face it, we only know about someone what they want us to know. Axiom believe in love as much as the next person, but we also believe in truth, evidence, and protecting people from harm. Romance scams are Canada's number one crime for a reason; because they work. These types of searches can be invaluable where there is concern for a family member, large assets, things just don't add up, or talk of cohabitation.

​

POLYGRAPH TESTING & CELL PHONE DATE RECOVERY

We use trusted third party contractors for these services and are happy to provide more information upon request.

​

GPS TRACKING RENTALS 

We are happy to arrange for renatl or purchase of GPS tracking units. These can greatly reduce surveillance billable hours and be extremely useful. It is the client's responsibility to ensure they are acting in accordance with Canadian Law).

​

PROCESS SERVICE

 

We specialize in complex, hostile, evasive, and high-risk process service. Regular process servers are not licensed to ask questions, interview, or do anything a licensed PI would do. 

ROMANCE SCAMS

​

Romance scams are the fastest growing crime in Canada. We see a dramatic year over year increase. There are two types of scams: in-person and online. While both are devastating, the in-person scams can take an even greater emotional tole as the victim believed they were in a genuine relationship. Our President has authored and been interviewed for several articles and publications on romance scams.
