A child custody dispute is one of the most difficult situations to go through. Do you feel that something is wrong for your child when they are with the other parent, that visitation rights are not being respected, or that your ex-spouse is engaging in harmful behaviour? Aquila Stratégie gathers the evidence you need to defend your rights and your child’s rights before the Family Court Judge.
Child custody investigation in PACA. Private detective in Marseille, Toulon & Nice
In what situations should you call on a detective for child custody?
Disputes related to child custody are often painful and require objective evidence so that the judge can make an informed decision. Aquila Stratégie intervenes in particular in the following situations:
- Failure by the other parent to comply with visitation and overnight stay rights
- Harmful behaviour in the child’s presence (addictions, violence, neglect)
- Suspected parental alienation or manipulation of the child
- Unauthorised move or taking the child outside the agreed area
- Request to revise custody or habitual residence
- Concerns about the child’s living conditions with the other parent
In all these cases, the evidence collected by our CNAPS-licensed private detectives can make all the difference before the judge.
How do our private detectives intervene?
Discreet surveillance and tailing
Our investigators monitor the child’s living environment in public spaces. They document behaviours, presences and concerning situations through time-stamped reports, photos and videos that are legally admissible before the JAF.
Verification of compliance with visitation rights
Our detectives observe and document situations where the child is not handed over, absences at agreed meeting points, or repeated breaches of the custody arrangements set by the court. These findings provide solid evidence to request a judicial modification.
Investigation into the environment and living conditions
When you have concerns about your child’s living conditions, our investigators verify the stability of the living environment, the presence of concerning third parties, or situations of neglect. These objective elements enable the judge to assess the child’s best interests.
Locating in the event of unauthorised relocation
In the event of an unauthorised relocation of the child or suspected parental abduction, our detectives intervene urgently to locate the child and the parent concerned. We work in coordination with our partners throughout the national territory. See also our page missing person search in PACA.

Frequently asked questions to our private detectives in PACA

Time-stamped surveillance reports, photos, videos, findings of repeated absence from the custodial parent’s home, harmful behaviour observed in the child’s presence, non-compliance with visitation rights… Each element is documented in compliance with the legal framework.
No. Our investigations are conducted in the strictest confidentiality. The other parent will not know that an investigation is underway. We intervene only in public spaces or areas that are legally accessible.
This is one of the most urgent situations we handle. Our detectives can document concerning behaviour (addictions, violence, neglect) and quickly build a file to request an emergency measure from the JAF.
Generally between 2 and 4 weeks, depending on the frequency of the facts to be documented and the availability of the person under surveillance. In the event of a proven emergency, we can intervene within 48 hours.
