Stakeout & Surveillance
Service in Los Angeles
When they're avoiding service, we outlast them — surveillance at known addresses to complete personal service. Discreet. Patient. Court-ready.
Request a StakeoutDiscreet. Persistent. Court-ready.
When standard attempts haven't worked and the only thing standing between you and personal service is a defendant who's making themselves scarce, a stakeout closes that gap. We post up at the home, workplace, or another known location and wait for the right window — logging every observation along the way so your file is ready if the service is ever challenged.
What We Provide
On-Location Surveillance
An agent posted at a known address — home, workplace, or another verified location — watching during the windows you tell us the subject is most likely to appear.
Time-Stamped Attempt Logs
Every observation, vehicle sighting, and attempt is logged with time and location, giving you a clean record to support a declaration of diligence if needed.
Immediate Service on Contact
The moment the subject is confirmed, our agent completes personal service on the spot and documents it the same way we document every serve.
When Stakeout Service Is Recommended
- The subject knows about the case and is actively avoiding service
- Several prior attempts at the same address have come up empty
- A deadline is approaching and you want one more serious push before service by publication
- You know the address or workplace, but the timing of past attempts has been off
- You need a documented record of diligence to support a motion or declaration

Important Notes & Limitations
