London’s leading Private Detectives

Welcome to the PDL Blog. We hope you find the posts below insightful and informative.

We use our blog to provide clients, potential clients, and anyone interested with further context around – and insight into – our industry.

The private detective industry naturally generates questions – around legality, legislation, confidentiality, ethics, pricing, and very simply: how investigative operations work.

Our aim is that the PDL blog answers these questions, and relates the key information to educate readers about how we and our wider industry operate.

Our blog will absolutely not contain any information that compromises the confidentiality or discretion of our clients or our operatives.

Any details within case studies are altered sufficiently to preserve anonymity without affecting intelligibility to a reader.
