Private investigations in New York City
Global Intelligence Bureau serves insurance carriers, attorneys, businesses and private clients in New York City. Our New York agency license is 11000177918. We define the investigative objective before recommending surveillance, interviews, scene work or records research.
Local fieldwork
Apartment buildings, transit routes, dense pedestrian traffic and restricted access can affect timing and observation. We assess entrances, travel patterns and sightlines before choosing a field position.
Our core coverage includes Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island. Assignments elsewhere in New York are reviewed according to scope, scheduling and investigator availability.
Services commonly requested
- Insurance and SIU investigations for claims review and litigation support.
- Surveillance and related fact-finding to document relevant activity.
- Witness interviews, scene inspections, background inquiries and corporate or private investigations where authorized.
What clients receive
We document observations, source statements and records findings separately. Photos, video and supporting records are included when available within the assignment. Negative results and access limitations are reported so the client can assess the evidence fairly.
Planning investigations across the five boroughs
The borough, building type and likely travel pattern matter when planning a New York City assignment. A subject may leave on foot, use public transit or enter a building with controlled access. For scene work, identify the exact frontage, intersection or entrance and the relevant date and time. A broad street address may not identify the part of a property that needs to be documented.
Information that helps us prepare
Send available subject photographs, apartment or business details, known schedules and any prior field results. For witness or scene inquiries, identify the facts still in dispute and any known camera locations. We can discuss whether the objective calls for surveillance, an interview, a scene canvass or a combination of methods. Access restrictions and the investigator’s available view should be considered before agreeing on the scope.
NYC field results: documented activity

Result obtained: documented observations and supporting video of physical activity, providing factual material for claims review. The findings describe the conduct observed during the assignment. Client and subject identities, dates and precise locations are omitted.
