Orlando generates a particular kind of casework: a divorce where one spouse travels for “conferences” on International Drive, a business partner in Lake Nona whose numbers stopped adding up, a custody exchange in Kissimmee that needs a neutral witness, a vacation-rental owner defrauded by a tenant who vanished. FSO Guard is a licensed private investigator in Orlando — a Florida Class A investigative agency (A 1000095) with investigators who work in English, Spanish and Russian and report to you in writing.
Investigation services in Orlando
Surveillance and infidelity
Discreet surveillance with time-stamped video and a written activity log — for divorce, cohabitation and alimony matters, and for employers who suspect a workers’ comp claim or a moonlighting employee.
Child custody investigations
Custody and welfare investigations: documenting the other parent’s conduct, exchanges, who is around the children and where they actually spend the night — evidence a family court judge can use.
Background checks
Background checks on a new partner, a business associate, a tenant, a nanny or a key hire — criminal and civil records, litigation history, assets, aliases and online footprint, legally sourced.
Skip tracing and process service
Locating people who owe money, dodge a subpoena or disappeared after a vacation-rental scam — and serving them properly so the case moves.
Corporate and insurance fraud
Corporate investigations and due diligence for Orlando businesses: embezzlement, vendor kickbacks, non-compete violations, workers’ comp and insurance fraud.
Litigation support for attorneys
Witness location and interviews, records retrieval, scene documentation, asset searches for judgment recovery and courtroom-ready reports for Orange and Seminole county cases.

Who hires a private investigator in Orlando
- Spouses and families going through divorce, custody or alimony disputes who need facts, not suspicions.
- Attorneys in family, personal injury, criminal defense and commercial litigation who need a licensed investigator whose work holds up in court.
- Business owners and HR dealing with theft, fraud, harassment complaints or a departing executive who took the client list.
- Vacation-rental and property owners chasing tenants and guests who caused damage or committed fraud and then left the state.
- Insurers and employers who need surveillance and documentation on questionable claims.
How a case works
- Confidential consultation. You describe the situation; we tell you what is legally possible, what evidence would actually help and what it is likely to cost.
- Written estimate and retainer. Scope, hours, rate and reporting format in one page. The retainer is applied to hours actually worked.
- Fieldwork. Surveillance, records research, interviews — conducted by licensed investigators who know Orlando’s neighborhoods, traffic patterns and resort corridor.
- Report. A written report with time-stamped photos and video, structured so your attorney can use it; testimony available if the case goes to court.
