Private Investigator Birmingham Blog

At Sentry Investigations Ltd, we like to give our visitors an idea of what a private investigator Birmingham actually gets up to. Since the profession was created, a very mysterious/'cloak and dagger' reputation has been formed. Furthermore, some unsavoury characters within the industry have unfortunately tarnished the highly professional work we do each day, and we want to put an end to it.

We want to eliminate the common misconceptions surrounding private investigations by being open with clientele from the offset. We do this to allow them to form their own opinions, and see the huge benefits of the investigative services we provide. Don't get us wrong, there are certain aspects to the job that we do like to keep close knit, However, you can quite easily research everything we do simply via online searches on various forums. This blog was formed to give people insights into the private investigations industry, and to showcase the work we do.

Surveillance Vehicles

There has recently been some industry debate (which did get a bit frosty) around what types of vehicles surveillance operatives should be using. Everyone had an opinion, so we thought we would share ours. First and foremost, we do NOT use Aston Martins. The first thing you do when you see an Aston Martin is dribble, and the whole point of covert surveillance is to remain undetected. Using an Aston Martin (or any other flash vehicle) completely defeats the point. That being sa

Rapid Deployment

It was a race against the clock a few days ago, when a client contacted Sentry Investigations with intelligence that needed acting upon urgently. The client explained that his daughters husband was due to leave the family home within the next hour, and was expected to head over to his other lovers house for the night. The subjects cover story was that he was spending the night at his parents house. But, with suspicions already heightened our client knew this not to be the cas

Virtual Networking

With tools somewhat downed due to lockdown 3.0 we are making the most of it by attending some virtual networking events hosted by Greater Birmingham Chamber of Commerce throughout January and February. We would much prefer to make new contacts in person as you can’t beat having a conversation in person, but with everything going on, Zoom is the only option right now. We do hope to make some new corporate contacts over the next few months but what we really hope to see is all

Christmas Cheats

It’s nearly that time of year again where we plan to spend time with family and loved ones. With government leaks starting to show, it’s looking more and more likely that Bojo is going to let us out for a few days during the holiday period to celebrate. Most of us will indeed be enjoying each others company, but others will see the ease on restrictions as a golden opportunity to enjoy someone else’s company... Private investigators find Christmas time to be a very busy time

#CheatingPartner

We have recently got off the ground after having investigated a fairly sensitive infidelity case which brought to light some serious findings. The data subject in question decided to just up and leave our client one day, leaving her high and dry with lots of unanswered questions spinning around in her head. Although the client and the data subject were still in minimal contact, lies, deception and vagueness were a part of every conversation they had leaving the client feeling

Corporate Investigations

Making use of a corporate or private investigator may come across as quite a daunting or even dodgy prospect. The truth is, many business owners are unaware of the laws and regulations surrounding employee-based investigations and as such, they are rarely considered when a business is going through serious internal problems. That being said, actually finding a legally compliant investigator can have its own problems, which is why it is always advised to approach a professiona
