Why Do Marriages End In Divorce?

Here are some common reasons a marriage may end in divorce:

  • Growing apart. Growing usually denotes a good thing, but growing apart is just a "feel good" term used to say that there is no longer any interest in honoring ones commitment.

  • Extramarital affairs or infidelity is a fancy way of saying they cheat. Again, no honor, just selfish gain.

  • Lack of commitment means that they just gave up, or don't really care.

  • Financial problems can lead to one or the other resenting their marriage mate.

  • Disagreements related to children which can include religion and lifestyles. It is especially difficult for step-parents.

  • Alcohol or drug abuse is a leading contributor to divorce. Mental health issues play a big part in substance abuse.

  • Domestic violence and abuse are strong catalysts for divorce, and rightly so. If you are facing domestic threats, contact us.

  • Constant arguing and conflict over everything and nothing is an indicator that your partner is nit-picking and no longer interested in maintaining the marriage.

  • Differing lifestyles and values is another fly-by-night way of saying that your partner no longer wants the same thing and will just treat your marriage as disposable refuse when they get a whim to go in some far flung direction.

How We Help Win Child Custody Cases

We help parents during child custody disputes. Our assistance is specialized in that we aid private client parents, like you, along with attorneys to help win child custody cases. We do this through the use of investigative efforts that look at and lawfully expose bad parents. We believe bad parents contribute to a pretty dismal looking society. Good parents nurture, understand and direct their children to becoming valuable contributing members of their communities.

We support parents by legally documenting bad behavior, unknown facts, and illegally obscured details that make the parent seem like a prince(ss) when really they're a bad actor (poor parent).

We desire to see your children grow up in a healthy environment, and if that means we document the other parent lying, cheating, or committing fraud and perjury, then so-be-it.

Cheating Spouse Infidelity Investigations 

When you know, you know. California is a no-fault state that allows you to file for divorce for any reason. You don't need to prove infidelity. Cheaters will be cheaters and you are allowed to file the divorce and quickly move on, especially if there were no children born into the marriage.

Whether there were children or not, many people feel they need to prove that their husband/wife or partner is unfaithful. It can be a matter of their own self sanity. Also, many are in relationships with people that their family may love and even defend the offending mate. In times like this many DivoreDetectives clients want to know and want to prove that their mate has been unfaithful. It may especially be helpful to prove to others that you were right.

How DivorceDetectives Catches Cheaters

We work closely with you, our client. We want to learn everything we can in order to successfully catch your partner if they are cheating. Not every time is a potential errant spouse caught in the act. It's important for us to work with you on dates, times, events, etc. in order to learn the best possible time to conduct our surveillance observations. Surveillance is how we catch cheaters.

Infidelity Surveillance Investigations

We are often asked: What is surveillance? Surveillance is an industry term used by private investigators when they watch a person discreetly. Private detectives will work usually in a team of two to three surveillance operators, especially if the person under observation will be driving in metropolitan areas.

The surveillance team will work in concert to ensure that the surveillance is uninterrupted.  This ensures no details are missed and if your spouse is cheating, we will catch them.
