Tampa Bay's Premier Full Service Private Investigators

Sherlock Holmes was fond of telling his partner “Come Watson, the game is afoot.” The Game is almost always afoot in Florida. It has something to do with the weather. If you suspect your spouse is cheating, they probably are! Gut feelings are always the best. Is your spouse is flying to Florida on business frequently? Or is he/she spending extra time on their appearance? Or attending all too frequent late meetings at the office?

It's time to confer with the GATOR experts and discuss a program to find out the truth. We have several investigators on staff that specialize in following suspected cheaters, meeting planes, and staking out motels anywhere in Florida. Catching suspected cheating spouses is a skill that requires many years to obtain. We know the “system” and how to play the “game”. If you have suspicions, give us a call and we can guide you correctly on the way to proceed.

Our conversations on these matters are, by law, strictly confidential . . . in addition, our advice is FREE.

Routine surveillance is the backbone of most investigative agencies. The GATOR is no exception. The state of Florida is a Mecca, particularly in the winter, for all sorts of people seeking the sun.

We specialize in finding and getting film documentation of your claimant or subject who has decided to winter in the Sunshine State.

Workman’s Compensation cases are one of our areas of expertise. We use the latest in Super 8 Video and Mini DVD technology plus Digital still cameras, and all of our investigators drive up-to-date surveillance vehicles.

Your subject may have “skipped” or you need confirmation on a missing person. Perhaps your spouse has “other” interests while in Florida. We specialize in meeting people at the airport and following them and seeing what they are up to.

The phrase, “we can find anyone, anywhere” is not exactly true -- but it’s close! With the computer technology available today, we can find almost anyone. This includes lost children, parents or friends. If someone “skipped” out of town owing you money or has taken your property, with some basic information such as complete name, we can find them.

Perhaps you would like to locate an old “army buddy” or high school chum. The GATOR detectives can do it.

Today and every day, there are thousands of people in prisons all across the United States awaiting trial or appeal on offenses that they did not commit. While the old adage states that a suspect is "innocent until proven guilty", it's invariably always up to the defendant to prove his innocence.

Gator Investigators perform all types of professional criminal defense investigations for both attorneys and pro-se defendants. Our background includes, arson, assault, homicide, robbery, rape, and accident investigations.

At the end of our investigations, we will present you with a professionally written report and, where necessary, document, video and photographic evidence in furtherance of proving your case. All of this evidence can be immediately used in court or at your attorney’s office. The GATOR Detectives are also available for professional testimony when required.

Did you know the person you are about to marry has been married 5 times in the last 10 years? You should! A simple background check of the person you are dating or getting serious with is always the prudent thing to do.

We can check criminal, financial and marital records quickly. A modest investment on your part can solve a lot of potential problems in the future.

Taking on a business partner? Hiring a new person for that key position? Let the GATOR check that person out first.

Did the ship you insure collide with a crew boat in the Mississippi River?? Who had the right of way? Was the water high or low? Did the crew have a recent drug test? Did the accident occur in spring, with a heavy down river current?

Sound complicated? Not to Gator Investigators owner, Charles "Chuck" Lukey, who also happens to be a Master Mariner. If it involves ships, boats, docks, barges, tugs or marine personnel, Chuck speaks the language. Gator Investigators can provide surveillance vessels with a licensed Captain / Investigator anywhere in the U.S.
