Overview: Investigating Hidden Cohabitation for Alimony Termination

In late 2024, a private client retained Privin Network to investigate their ex-spouse in relation to a cohabitation investigation in Denver, Colorado, suspecting a violation of a court-ordered alimony agreement. The client believed their ex was living with a romantic partner, an arrangement that could warrant legal termination of spousal support.

To proceed with legal action, the client needed clear, admissible evidence of long-term cohabitation. Privin deployed a local surveillance team to monitor the subject’s residence inside a gated suburban community, known to pose unique observational challenges.

Surveillance Strategy and Execution

Our Denver-based investigators developed a low-visibility observation plan focused on:

  • Vehicle tracking and tailing outside the gated area
  • Monitoring entry and exit routines
  • Timestamped photographic documentation from public vantage points

Surveillance was carried out across three consecutive days, allowing us to capture recurring behavior patterns without raising suspicion.
