9. Why do two or more detectives always participate in surveillance work? We always work in a team of at least two detectives for reasons of quality assurance. Regardless of the advantage of being able to name two witnesses in during a possible trial, the team reduces the risk of attracting attention or losing the target, e.g. in busy traffic. The two detectives take turns tracking, allowing for a careful and inconspicuous way of working. Our detective agency employs 10 specialists who are deployed individually according to the situation and their skills.
