In most cases, yes. While employers typically do have the right to place hidden cameras throughout the workplace, they nearly always choose to make the cameras highly visible to encourage employees to be on their best behavior. Hidden cameras are typically not legal to place in bathrooms or bedrooms where someone is staying, or any other place were people would assume that they would have a heightened level of privacy.
A wife, and mother of three children, met with us in our Orange County office. She suspected her husband was cheating on her but she needed proof.
Our private investigators performed a minimum 4-hour surveillance on her husband. We provided video of her husband and his lover going to a local hotel.
We referred the client to one of our preferred attorneys who assisted in obtaining a divorce decree.
Every year, Martin Investigative Services investigates hundreds of cheating spouse cases and surveillances. We perform these sensitive investigations with a level of discreet, professional courtesy.

Private investigator Tom Martin is based in Southern California, but his work frequently brings him to Las Vegas.
“We get hired by people who get hurt coming in on I-15, or people who get hurt in the hotels,” said Martin, 50. Sometimes, he mentions, he is hired by the party who gets sued by a deceptive person just claiming to be hurt.

One of Mr. Martin’s Valentine’s Day clients is a doctor whose wife, also a doctor, aroused his suspicions when she told him she would be changing her regular daytime shift on Tuesday and instead working until 8 p.m. Like virtually all private detectives, Mr. Martin won’t reveal his client’s names.

Whenever the need arises for a private investigator, the only name that I consider for my clients is Tom.

I have utilized the firm in some very delicate and discrete investigations and situations requiring a strong security presence. In every engagement, both my clients and myself have been completely satisfied. I have no reservations in endorsing Tom and his firm for any investigative assignments.
