Our team operates across Leeds and surrounding areas, offering ethical and confidential investigative support.

Why Proof of Cohabiting Matters
Gathering evidence that confirms a shared living arrangement is important in a wide range of legal and personal circumstances. At Private Detective Leeds, our cohabitation investigations help support:
Spousal Maintenance Reviews
If your former partner is cohabiting with someone else, this may impact spousal maintenance terms. Our evidence may support a reduction or termination of payments in accordance with legal agreements.
Child Custody Cases
The presence of a new partner in a child’s living environment may affect custody arrangements. Our investigations help assess the appropriateness and stability of the home.
Tenancy or Landlord Disputes
We help landlords or tenants establish whether unauthorised occupants are living at a property or if a breach of tenancy is occurring.
Insurance and Benefits Fraud
False claims relating to single-person occupancy or benefit eligibility can be disproved with clear cohabitation evidence.
How We Gather Proof of Cohabitation
Our Leeds-based investigators use a combination of discreet surveillance and reliable documentation to provide robust evidence of cohabitation.
Physical Surveillance
Our team observes daily routines and behavioural patterns that suggest cohabiting:
- Coming and Going Patterns – Regular arrivals and departures of both individuals
- Overnight Stays – Documented repeated overnight stays
- Vehicle Monitoring – Consistent presence of one or more vehicles at the address
Photographic and Video Evidence
We collect compelling visual proof to demonstrate cohabitation:
- Photographic Evidence – Capturing both individuals entering, exiting, or conducting shared household activities
- Video Footage – High-definition recordings of routines over time to demonstrate a living-together relationship
What You’ll Receive from the Investigation
After completing the investigation, you’ll receive a comprehensive evidence pack including:
- Professional Summary – A clear, detailed report outlining our findings
- Date & Time-Stamped Media – Legal-grade video and photographic evidence suitable for solicitor or court use
