Private help with relationship doubts
You may be looking for reassurance. You may need answers about an unexplained absence, a meeting or a story that does not add up. You do not need proof of an affair to ask for help.
Sceáwian helps people in Sydney and across NSW investigate concerns about a partner. Tell us what is troubling you. We will explain what we can check, how we would do it and what it would cost before you decide.
The aim is a clearer picture.
The next decision remains yours.
The Sceáwian standard
You are trusting someone with a deeply private concern. You deserve to know who is handling it, what they will do and how they will explain the results.
Before you decide, we explain what we can check, how we would do it and what it will cost. You agree to the plan before we start.
We use lawful methods and keep clear records of what we see, when it happened and where the information came from.
We follow the facts. If the information does not support your concerns—or leaves questions unanswered—we tell you.
You receive a clear account of what we found, with photos or video where available. We explain what could not be confirmed.
We do not promise to “catch” someone, hack private accounts or set up encounters. We investigate what actually happens.
What we can help you find out
We can help check concerns about meetings, movements or an explanation that does not add up. A meeting alone does not prove an affair. We explain what the information shows and where questions remain.
Where appropriate, we can discreetly observe activity during agreed times. We record what happened and explain any periods we could not observe.
We can compare an account of events with information we can lawfully check. Public online information is checked carefully, including whether it belongs to the right person.
You receive a straightforward report, with relevant photos or video where available. You can see what we found and what we could not confirm.
You can begin before you have every answer
We will explain what is possible before you decide whether to proceed.

Infidelity investigation FAQs
Clear answers about discretion, methods, costs and outcomes. Select any question to expand the answer.
An infidelity investigation is a factual enquiry into specific relationship concerns. It may involve lawful observation, relevant public-source research and a documented chronology. It establishes what can be observed and verified; it cannot read intentions or automatically prove the nature of a relationship.
We can assess specific questions about relevant meetings, movements or inconsistencies and propose lawful ways to test them. Findings may support your concerns, point to another explanation or remain inconclusive. We report the evidence whichever way it leads.
No. Start with the particular inconsistency or event you want clarified. You do not need a complete case, but a legitimate purpose and a question that can reasonably be investigated are necessary before work is accepted.
You can discuss that concern without judgement. We will help separate a feeling from a factual question and explain whether investigation could usefully answer it. A change in behaviour alone does not establish infidelity.
An unexplained absence, inconsistent account of an event or recurring discrepancy may provide a factual starting point. None is proof of an affair. We consider the specific context and available information rather than use a checklist to declare someone unfaithful.
Relationship enquiries are assessed on purpose, legality and proportionality, regardless of marital status, gender or sexual orientation. Being in a relationship does not create unrestricted rights to another person’s accounts, communications or movements.
That matters just as much. We record what was established and any reasonable limits on the finding. A professional investigation tests a concern; it does not manufacture a conclusion to justify it.
No. Our role is to give you a clearer factual basis for your own decisions. Relationship counselling, personal support and legal advice are separate services that may be helpful alongside an investigation.
We treat your enquiry discreetly and agree how to communicate with you. No website or communication channel can guarantee secrecy on a shared or monitored device. Use an email account and device you can safely access, and tell us any contact restrictions.
Yes, include your safe contact times and any no-voicemail, no-SMS or email-only instruction in the form. These instructions help us plan contact. If no return contact is safe, call the confidential line yourself to discuss arrangements.
Keep the initial outline brief. Do not upload evidence, account credentials or identifying details about other people through this public form. Identity, conflict and legitimate-purpose checks will be needed before an engagement can proceed.
No. This is a public enquiry form for a high-level outline and safe return contact details. Evidence, identity documents and sensitive material should be shared only through a separately agreed secure channel.
Discretion is part of planning, but nobody can guarantee that observation will never be noticed. We assess detection risk, appropriate methods and stopping conditions before work begins and explain material limitations.
Access and delivery arrangements are agreed for the engagement. We handle information confidentially, subject to lawful disclosure obligations and agreed recipients. Tell us if a solicitor should receive the material and how it can safely be delivered.
No responsible practice can promise absolute secrecy in every circumstance. Legal obligations, court processes, compromised devices and the practical risks of fieldwork can affect confidentiality. We explain arrangements and limitations before engagement.
We begin with a confidential scope discussion, identity and conflict checks, a legitimate-purpose assessment and a written plan. Depending on the question, the agreed work may include lawful observation, public-source checks and review of material you are authorised to provide.
No. The right method depends on the question and the information already available. Targeted source checks or a review of an existing chronology may be more appropriate. We explain why a proposed method is relevant before you approve work.
No. We do not hack phones, bypass account security, intercept private messages or use stolen passwords. A person’s relationship with you does not authorise access to their protected communications.
We do not offer covert device installation or unlawful tracking as a shortcut to answers. Any proposed collection method must be assessed against the applicable law and the legitimate scope of the engagement.
We do not trespass or obtain material through unlawful intrusion. The proposed location, vantage point and recording method must be assessed before work. An investigator’s licence does not provide police powers.
No. Our approach is to record relevant activity that occurs, rather than stage a relationship or manufacture an event. Findings should answer the factual question without creating the behaviour under investigation.
Relevant publicly available material may be assessed where lawful and within scope. A name, photograph or apparent profile match is not enough on its own to confirm identity, current activity or ownership of an account.
Identification may be considered where it is necessary, proportionate and lawful for the agreed question. We distinguish confirmed identification from a possible match and do not promise unrestricted access to private records.
A relationship enquiry is not a confrontation service. Any contact with another person would need a specific lawful purpose and an agreed approach. We do not provide intimidation, harassment or pressure tactics.
We do not accept work that would enable stalking, coercive control, harassment or a breach of an order. Any request involving an ex-partner requires careful assessment of lawful purpose and safety; the enquiry may be declined.
The cost depends on the location, methods, personnel, time windows, travel and reporting required. We discuss a written scope and estimate before work begins. A useful quote explains what is included, any minimum attendance and when further approval is needed.
Ask for an estimate for your specific enquiry. There is no universal price that fits every matter, and payment cannot guarantee a particular event or result. Any proposed package must be assessed against the actual work and its limitations.
Discuss your budget during scoping. A targeted question and defined observation windows can help keep work proportionate. The written engagement should record the approved scope, costs and the process for approving changes.
Some questions relate to a particular event; others require several targeted periods or further source checks. Timing depends on available information, the activity being tested and practical access. We agree a plan without promising a result by a particular deadline.
Tell us the relevant date, location and why timing matters. Availability, lawful methods, checks and an agreed engagement must be confirmed first. Sending an urgent enquiry does not book attendance or guarantee an immediate response.
Start by telling us the city or region involved. We assess location, travel, resources and licensing requirements before accepting work. Interstate or overseas enquiries require a separate assessment; do not assume every location is covered.
A clear question, relevant dates, the general location and any safe contact restrictions are enough for an initial discussion. More detailed information may be requested through an agreed channel after identity, conflict and lawful-purpose checks.
No. The form requests an initial conversation. An engagement begins only after the matter is assessed and the written scope, costs and arrangements are agreed.
Discuss this before engagement and refer to the written terms. Changes can affect bookings, work already completed and costs incurred. Additional work should follow the agreed approval process.
Deliverables are agreed in the scope. They may include a dated activity chronology, relevant photographs or video where lawfully obtained, source notes and a written report that separates observed facts, inferences and unresolved questions.
Where lawful, relevant and practically obtainable, media may form part of the agreed deliverables. Visibility, access, weather, subject activity and detection risk can affect what is recorded. We do not guarantee a photograph of every event.
The report should explain the period covered, the work completed and any gaps or limitations. No relevant activity during one observation period is not proof that nothing happens at other times. You can then consider whether further work is justified.
No. Nobody can guarantee that a relevant event will occur or be observed. We can agree a disciplined plan and report honestly, including when the evidence does not support the concern.
Independent investigation may help you test a specific concern without personally following someone or attempting account access. Its value depends on whether the question can be answered lawfully, the likely information gain and your budget. We discuss that before engagement.
Tell us at the outset if legal proceedings are contemplated so collection and reporting can be scoped appropriately. Your solicitor can advise on relevance, admissibility and any further requirements. We do not guarantee a report will be admitted or determine a legal outcome.
No. Australia has no-fault divorce, so a court does not need proof of infidelity to grant a divorce. Divorce is separate from property, financial and parenting matters. Ask a family lawyer whether any proposed investigation serves a relevant purpose in your circumstances.
Do not assume it will. Legal relevance depends on the particular facts and issues. Get advice from your family lawyer before spending money on evidence for a legal dispute; an investigator cannot promise a settlement or parenting result.
Yes, where agreed and appropriate. A solicitor can help define the factual question and intended use of material. Agree instructions, recipients, reporting needs and communication arrangements before collection begins.
Check the licensing required where the work will occur, who is responsible for your matter, the written scope, proposed methods, costs and reporting. Be cautious about guaranteed outcomes or unrestricted access to private accounts. Ask how uncertainty and unsuccessful work will be recorded.
That is a personal decision that may also have safety and legal implications. We do not advise confrontation as an investigative tactic. If you have concerns about violence or coercive control, seek appropriate support and prioritise safety.
An investigation is not an emergency response service. In immediate danger in Australia, call 000. If safe to do so, seek specialist support or legal advice before taking steps that might increase your risk.
