Overview

Child custody investigations are among the highest-stakes cases we handle. When a child’s safety, stability, or well-being is in question, courts rely on documented, objective evidence rather than one party’s allegations against another. Metro Detective Agency provides the thorough, professional investigation that Michigan family courts demand.

Our investigators document a subject parent’s daily routines, living conditions, parenting behavior, and compliance with existing custody agreements. We observe and record interactions with the child, household environments, the presence of third parties, and any behavior that may affect the court’s determination of custody or visitation rights.

Every investigation is conducted lawfully and ethically, with evidence documented in time-stamped reports, photographs, and video. Our findings have been used by family law attorneys, guardians ad litem, and Friend of the Court offices across Michigan to support motions for custody modification, enforcement, and protective orders.
