Child custody & visitation rights

Child support & compensatory payments

- Undeclared work
- Recent goods
- Visible expenditure
Sensitive situations
Harassment, spying, departure of a loved one: act methodically
Software or microphone installed without your knowledge, repeated threats, partner gone with the children, disputed inheritance: your detectives choose the means according to the place and emergency. House of Tabor, apartment in Villejean or length of the country of Rennes, the zone of intervention is defined in writing. If your security is threatened, dial 17; 3919, free and anonymous national line, accompanies any person victim of domestic violence.
Breton enterprises
Rennes detective for businesses, from Atalante to La Janais
Technopole Rennes Atalante, EuroRennes offices, La Janais industrial site, logistics platforms on the periphery: companies in the Rennes basin face the same abuses as elsewhere. Unwarranted absences, misappropriation of customers, disappearance of goods: a penalty or legal action requires established facts. Your detectives bring them together with strict respect for the law; the privacy of the employee remains an absolute limit.
Disputed sick leave
Activity monitoring
Uncompleted rounds, hours declared but not worked, company vehicle used privately: surveillance requires specific suspicions. Labour law only permits monitoring an employee if no other means are sufficient and the measure remains proportionate.
Unfair competition
Theft and fraud
Search for persons
Search for a person or evaluate a debtor at Rennes
New address in a municipality of the metropolis, installation on the coast, departure from Brittany: a person can become unobtainable within a few weeks. No search starts without legitimate interest: your private investigation agency in Rennes checks it first. The licit sources are then reconciled, and the result is verified on the ground. No research is carried out on behalf of a person who wishes to harm.
Relative to find
The search follows strictly the subject of the written agreement; the localized person chooses alone whether or not to renew contact.
Debtor apparently insolvent
Assets
Vehicles, visible real property, interests in corporations: a lawful state before assigning or transacting.
Due diligence before contract
Repurchase, partnership, recruitment of an executive: your detectives control the declared activity, the route and reputation of the contact person.

Rennes: a private investigation fully managed
"The evidence is constructed with lawful means."
A defined goal
The written agreement sets out the mission's objective: to establish a fact, to defend a right, to prepare a procedure.
Clear boundaries
Interceptions, tag placement, entry into a home or illegal file browsing are excluded.
Measured intrusion
The time, duration and places of observation shall remain relevant to the issue in question.

System
Metro, ring road, pedestrian centre: resources designed for Rennes
Personnel and vehicles are chosen according to the intended path of the person. For night or several days surveillance, a relay between detectives is organized.
Surveillance
In the streets of the centre, on the ring road or on a metro train, the system follows the person regardless of their mode of transport.
Shootings
Each image is taken in the public space, away from intimate life, and only serves the purpose of the written agreement.
Certificates
The witnesses prepare a handwritten, dated and signed certificate accompanied by a copy of the identity document.
Follow-up outside the department
To Nantes by the N137, Caen by the A84 or Lorient by the N24, another Investipole agency can take over.
discreet surveillance in Rennes and around
Following someone in Rennes: ring road, metro, old town
Rennes was built at the confluence of Ill and Vilaine. The old centre, around Place des Lices and Sainte-Anne, alternate narrow streets and frequented squares; to the south, the station and EuroRennes concentrate the arrivals of travellers. For a private investigator in Rennes, these two poles fix most of the starting points.
The metro has two automated lines. Line A connects J. F. Kennedy to La Poterie; line B, opened in 2022, runs from Saint-Jacques–Gaîté to Cesson–Viasilva. Connections are available at Sainte-Anne and Gares, where a simple change of train can confuse an isolated follower.
The N136 ring road encircles the city. Its junctions lead to the A84 towards Caen, the N12 towards Saint-Brieuc, the N24 towards Lorient, the N137 towards Nantes and the N157 towards Laval and Paris. A person entering it chooses their exit in an instant: your detectives anticipate the most likely junctions.
In the south-east, around La Poterie and Le Blosne, the main routes and the terminus of line a quickly change the situation. Your agency, located in this area, is familiar with these shifts between car and metro.
In the centre, the pedestrian zone and limited parking often require continuing on foot, from Place de la République to Les Lices. During peak hours, a second detective covers the station exits.
The law prohibits extending surveillance in a private location. Therefore, observation points are defined before the mission: metro stations, ring road entrances, main bus stops, car parks. Thus, every hour of surveillance serves the defined objective.

A word from the Manager
"Diriger Investipole in Rennes for nearly 20 years has been doing this job with an intact passion and constant demand. The metropolis requires a real reading of the terrain: discreet supervision can start near the station, continue to the Republic, switch on the Villejean tracks or take the ring road. In each case, our role remains the same: to verify the facts accurately, preserve the client's confidentiality and provide a useful report to the lawyer as well as to the competent courts."

Rennes FAQ
The answers you need to know before an investigation in Rennes
Cost, legality, process: essential in a few lines.
Rennes: how much does a detective assignment cost?
The rate of a private detective in Rennes ranges from €90 to €120 excluding VAT per hour depending on several criteria, with a free quote. Your budget depends on the number of hours, night or Sunday interventions, the number of detectives, and travel. The signed quote establishes this budget before any commencement.
Under what legal framework does surveillance take place in Rennes?
As long as a legitimate interest bases it and surveillance remains measured in the light of privacy. Your detectives stand on the public road and in places open to all. The judge can control this balance in case of dispute.
Rennes metro: how to stay in touch with the person being followed?
The connections of Sainte-Anne and Gares are the sensitive moments. A detective accompanies the person in the row, a second is positioned on the way out, and a vehicle remains available near the ring road. The same organization applies to stations on line b.
Around Rennes, what area do your detectives cover?
All the municipalities of Rennes Métropole, including Cesson-Sévigné, Saint-Jacques-de-la-Lande, Bruz and Betton, as well as Saint-Malo, Fougères, Vitré and Redon. Your detectives travel throughout Ille-et-Vilaine; journeys to Vannes, Laval or Saint-Brieuc are prepared in the same way.
Rennes: how far can surveillance go?
As far as the written agreement provides: by A84, N12, N24, N137 or N157. Outside Brittany, another Investipole agency takes over, with only one case manager.
Childcare in Rennes: what can your detectives observe?
Delays and absences in handovers, the presence of another adult in charge of the child, short stays; these facts are recorded at a distance, without contact with the child, and then forwarded to your lawyer for the hearing. Only items related to custody are included in the report.
Having an employee monitored in Rennes: under what conditions?
Two conditions: a serious reason to suspect the employee and a legitimate business interest. Competition, theft, fraud, or activity during leave may justify the assignment. The monitoring concerns only professional matters and remains proportionate.
