INVESTIGATIVE CAPABILITY
Surveillance & Activity Checks
Lawful activity documentation from appropriate vantage points under a defined assignment.
Explore →PRIVATE INVESTIGATIONS
Traditional investigative discipline. Enterprise evidence standards.
MODLAN's investigative capability is not limited to insurance SIU work. Where authorized and properly licensed, MODLAN can support defined civil, legal, business, and investigative matters using the same source, consent, privacy, evidence, and reporting discipline applied across the platform.
AVAILABILITYLicensed jurisdictions provided on request.
MODLAN Systems, Inc. performs regulated investigative services only in jurisdictions where it holds the required licences. Inquiries from other jurisdictions are referred.
MATTER-SCOPED SERVICES
Private investigative work without lowering the standard.
Each engagement begins with a defined purpose, authority, jurisdiction, and investigative objective. MODLAN does not use a broad private-investigation label to bypass the controls applied to regulated investigative work.

One investigative standard across matter types
These apply to every engagement, in every jurisdiction.
- Recorded consent, everywhereWe obtain recorded consent from every party to every recorded statement, in every jurisdiction, regardless of which state rule applies.
- Lawful vantageObservation is conducted from publicly accessible vantage points. We do not enter private property, observe into areas where privacy is reasonably expected, or place concealed or unattended recording devices.
- No pretextInvestigators identify themselves where identification is appropriate. We do not use fictitious identities, misrepresent our purpose, or obtain information under false pretences.
- Documented permissible useInformation from restricted sources is accessed only for the permitted purpose of the matter it was obtained for, and that purpose is documented for every search.
- Represented partiesWhere a party is represented, we proceed only on documented instruction from counsel.
- Aerial for property, not peopleAerial documentation is used for property, scene, and loss documentation. We do not use aircraft to observe individuals.
- Public sources, unauthenticatedDigital collection is performed from publicly accessible sources without logging in to any account.
YOUR GUIDELINESScope, coverage, reporting format, documentation requirements, and turnaround are performed to your guidelines and the assignment instructions for each matter. Requirements differ by carrier and by jurisdiction, and we work to yours.
NOT SCREENING
Matter investigation and consumer screening are different product lines.
This page does not offer employment, tenant, credit, vendor, or other eligibility screening. Those workflows create different legal and compliance obligations and are not represented here as a MODLAN service.
CONTROLLED EVIDENCE
Discovery and preservation remain separate disciplines.
When digital or other evidence requires preservation, custody, or controlled sharing, the investigation can connect to MODLAN's evidence services without treating an investigator's screenshot or note as a substitute for a documented evidence record.

CONTROL BOUNDARY
Breadth without role confusion.
MODLAN can connect multiple disciplines, but the engagement still preserves authority, licensure, evidence, and professional-role boundaries.
- No pretexting, fictitious identities, or open-ended monitoring.
- Represented-party contact requires documented counsel direction where applicable.
- Public-source collection remains unauthenticated and scoped to the matter.
- Consumer, employment, tenant, and eligibility screening are not offered through this product line.
LAUNCH DEPENDENCIES
What has to be true before this service family scales.
These are public-safe planning dependencies, not universal contractual requirements. The actual program depends on jurisdiction, client policy, professional role, contract, data, and technical environment.
Program growth should preserve a named owner for material scope, authority, and launch decisions.
- Lawful purpose and jurisdiction
- Representation/contact constraints
- Defined investigative question
- Evidence-preservation path when needed
Scope, access, lawful method, evidence, counsel direction, and closure/disposition.
