Alimony Investigation — are you paying too much, or receiving too little?

Alimony fraud is more common than you think. We investigate whether your ex-partner is concealing income, cohabiting, or misrepresenting their financial situation.

Alimony Investigation

Alimony is intended to ensure a fair financial balance after a divorce. But what if your ex-partner is hiding income, earning cash in hand, or cohabiting without reporting it? Then you may be paying too much — or receiving too little. Alimony fraud is more common than you think, and the financial consequences can persist for years. A professional alimony investigation maps out the true situation and provides you with the evidence needed to have the alimony revised.

What we investigate

What do we investigate?

We focus on all factors that affect the alimony obligation. This includes concealed income or undeclared work, cohabitation with a new partner, hidden assets or financial structures, and a lifestyle that does not match the declared income. All findings are documented factually in a report that is admissible in family court.

When should you engage us?

An alimony investigation is relevant when your ex-partner maintains a higher standard of living than their income justifies, there are indications of cohabitation, their income as a self-employed person is difficult to verify, or there are rumours of undeclared work. We regularly collaborate with family law attorneys to optimally align the evidence with the legal strategy.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. If your ex-partner cohabits 'as if they were married', this can be grounds for termination of the alimony.
Is the investigation also useful if I receive alimony?
Yes. If you suspect your ex-partner earns more than declared, an investigation can lead to an increase.
How long must the investigation last for usable evidence?
That varies by situation. Sometimes a few days suffice; in cohabitation cases, a longer period is often required.
