Licensed Pinecrest Private Investigator
Wasser Investigations (Florida license #A3200002) is the premier private investigative agency serving Pinecrest’s exclusive residential community. Based just minutes north on Ponce de Leon Boulevard in Coral Gables, we have immediate, discreet access down the US-1 and Red Road (SW 57th Avenue) corridors. A senior investigator manages your file directly from day one. In a village known for its quiet, sprawling one-acre lots where out-of-place vehicles are easily noticed by neighbors, our covert surveillance tactics ensure your investigation remains entirely off the neighborhood radar.
A Pinecrest Firm, Not a Call Center
Pinecrest is defined by its deep-rooted family wealth, dense tropical canopies, and long, private driveways stretching between Killian Drive and Old Cutler. Investigations in this affluent village are almost always high-stakes and deeply personal. Our local caseload frequently involves complex contested divorces, intense child custody disputes, tracing hidden financial assets, and conducting rigorous background checks on household staff, private tutors, or nannies.
Operating right next door in Coral Gables, we have navigated these specific suburban environments for nearly 40 years. Whether you are a concerned parent demanding concrete proof for a custody hearing, a litigating attorney assembling a high-net-worth probate file, or a spouse suspecting financial infidelity, you get a seasoned investigator who knows how to maintain a low profile on quiet streets. We secure court-ready evidence while fiercely protecting your family’s privacy and reputation.

Common Questions About Hiring a Private Investigator
How much does hiring a private investigator in Pinecrest cost?
Pinecrest cases are billed by the hour, and the cost follows the work. Custody or divorce surveillance on large, gated properties takes patience and several days, since long driveways and private lots make a subject harder to watch. Asset and background searches are flat fees and run lower. We put the full price in writing before we start, with nothing buried in the bill.
Is hiring a private investigator legal under Florida law?
Yes. Florida licenses and oversees private investigators, and only a firm in good standing should handle your case. We have worked under license #A3200002 since 1985 and are members of the state investigators' association. In family court, lawful work is the only way your proof stays admissible the day it counts.
Can an investigator track a car or open private accounts?
No. A licensed investigator cannot tap a phone, open private accounts, or place a tracker on a vehicle you do not own. That conduct is illegal and would sink a custody or divorce case. We gather proof legally through surveillance and public records, so a judge can rely on it and the other side cannot have it thrown out.
How do I hire the right investigator for a family case?
Confirm the Florida license number with the state, check that the firm carries insurance, and get the work, fee, and timeline in writing before you sign. Then ask who actually runs the case. At Wasser, a senior investigator handles it personally and keeps it discreet, which matters in a small, well-off community like Pinecrest.
Do you work with family-law attorneys?
Yes. We support family lawyers across Miami-Dade with custody surveillance, infidelity cases, and hidden-asset investigations. We document visits and conduct on video, trace property and accounts legally, and take statements. Attorneys bring us in when a Pinecrest case needs proof that holds in court, whether the fight is over custody or money tucked into a trust.
Will my case stay discreet?
Yes. We hold our clients' names in confidence and keep every detail of the case to ourselves. In Pinecrest, where neighbors and household staff notice comings and goings on quiet streets, we work without drawing attention so your case does not become gossip. That protects both families and the attorneys who hire us.
