    With a private investigator on the ground and a drone in the air, we are now pleased to offer drone aerial surveillance services in and around greater Los Angeles and surrounding communities.

    In keeping up with modern technology, LA Intelligence introduces Drone Surveillance which has proved very useful in many applications.

    The DJI Mavic Pro with 4k HD video is capable of flying for 45 minutes on one battery and reaching speeds up to 50 MPH.

    It is useful in missing persons cases, locating stolen vehicles, domestic surveillance, and any other field operation where capturing evidence quietly and discreetly from 500 feet above covers more ground than rolling and foot surveillance.

    Brian Matthews, a licensed pilot familiar with restricted airspaces and weather, flies the Mavic Pro as it provides real time video footage of the target in question.

    If you are in need of professional drone aerial surveillance, our licensed investigators are ready to serve your needs. Call our Beverly Hills office at (310) 894-5200 or submit your inquiry via email to get the process started.

    The Versatile Role of Drones in Private Investigations

    Private investigators harness drones’ power for many purposes, amplifying their surveillance prowess. Below are some prevalent ways in which private investigators employ drones to facilitate their investigations:

    Aerial Surveillance: Equipped with high-resolution cameras, drones empower private investigators to capture aerial footage and imagery of subjects’ activities or specific locations. This elevated perspective proves advantageous for tracking movements and securing comprehensive evidence.

    Pre-Surveillance: Drones serve as valuable reconnaissance tools, scouting areas before ground-level surveillance begins. They aid in identifying potential obstacles, entry and exit points, and optimal vantage positions for evidence collection.

    Evidence Collection: Drones play an indispensable role in gathering visual evidence, encompassing photographs and videos. This evidence substantiates cases in court, documenting activities, monitoring subject behaviors, and capturing footage of key locations.

    Litigation Support: Aerial footage and images obtained via drones assume pivotal roles in litigation support. They furnish a clear and unbiased perspective, bolstering legal arguments and elevating the presentation of evidence in court.

    Insurance Claims: Private investigators leverage drones to swiftly assess property damage, accident scenes, and insurance claims. This technology expedites the claims process by furnishing insurers with comprehensive insights into the situation.

    Search and Rescue: Drones contribute significantly to search and rescue missions by swiftly covering expansive areas and aiding in locating missing persons or individuals in distress.

    Surveillance of Large Areas: Drones excel in surveilling vast expanses, including remote properties and extensive landscapes, where traditional surveillance methods may prove less effective.

    Traffic Accident Reconstruction: Drones provide comprehensive aerial views of accident scenes in accident investigations. This aids in accident reconstruction and the determination of fault.

    Environmental Monitoring: Private investigators employ drones to assess environmental conditions, such as documenting environmental violations or tracking changes in natural landscapes.

    What Clients Are Saying

    I was in need of a drone operator to acquire aerial video/picture. Brian, the owner at LA Intelligence, handled the assignment himself and delivered great results. Besides producing high quality drone footage, he also went above and beyond to make sure both he and I were satisfied with the finished product. On the originally scheduled day to do the drone operating the weather unexpectedly turned stormy. Upon reviewing the footage, Brian unilaterally volunteered to go back over the weekend to achieve what he believed would be better results. He was right and this showcases his desire to achieve work product he is proud of. The whole process was made simple and straightforward and I would safely assume he provides a similar experience for all his PI investigations.

    “I was fortunate enough to once again hire Brian Mathews to help me with an insurance case that was very complicated and required skill, patience, and a thorough knowledge of the insurance industry and its practices. I found him to be most dependable and helpful. My case was very upsetting to me as it concerned a hit and run incident, and I was the victim. Brian followed up on every detail and uncovered details about the driver who hit me. He was able to help solve my case and bring it to a successful conclusion. I would recommend Brian to anyone needing an experienced and capable private investigator. Thank you.”

    “I contacted LA Intelligence to help me with an issue with my son, because I live on the East Coast and couldn’t be there myself to assess the situation and obtain information. They were very nice and helpful. I liked that they were flexible in that they communicated with me by voice call and by text, whatever worked best for me at any given time depending on my schedule. They delivered on everything I asked for. I really appreciate them taking care of things for me from over 2000 miles away and giving me peace of mind.”
