Maintenance Investigations | Maintenance Fraud

Do you have the impression that your ex-partner is living in the lap of luxury while you do not know how to make ends meet? Is your former partner concealing employment or a new marriage-like relationship? In other words: are you being disadvantaged in maintenance payments? Our experienced Duisburg private investigators examine your suspicions and substantiate any findings in the form of a court-admissible investigation report: +49 203 3196 0052.

Target Person: Maintenance Defaulter

Let us take a fictitious example: a married couple divorce. He is the managing director of a large company, she a housewife and from then on a single mother of their two children. In accordance with case law, in this scenario he is obliged to make maintenance payments both to the children and to his former wife (child maintenance and post-marital maintenance). However, he claims that he no longer earns as much as he did some time ago and is therefore unable to pay the previously calculated maintenance. Truth or lie? Are you uncertain and suspect that he is not unable to pay but merely unwilling?

Then do not allow yourself to be misled and contact our private detective agency in Duisburg. Our qualified detectives verify the accuracy of the statements made. Through thorough research with the relevant authorities such as the tax office and through surveillance of the person liable to pay maintenance, we are able to provide you with court-admissible evidence with which you can enforce your claims in court. We will be pleased to advise you without obligation regarding the available options. Send us an email at kontakt@kurtz-detektei-duisburg.de or call us on the telephone number stated above.

Target Person: Maintenance Recipient

Let us remain with the aforementioned couple, but reverse the situation: until the divorce, the wife worked part-time while the children were at school; now, however, she claims that she can no longer pursue her employment. As a reason, she states that the children are frequently ill and she must therefore remain at home, that she has to care for her elderly mother or that staff reductions have taken place, etc. This may indeed be the case, yet in the majority of cases handled by our private investigators, such sudden changes in personal circumstances at very convenient points in time constitute the feigning of false facts in order to obtain an unlawful financial advantage at the expense of the maintenance payer, which constitutes fraud pursuant to § 263 of the German Criminal Code. A further constellation in the context of unlawful maintenance conduct arises when an older child begins paid vocational training but the maintenance recipient claims that the child is still attending school in order to avoid a reduction in child maintenance.

If you are of the opinion that your ex-partner is receiving more maintenance than he or she is entitled to, our IHK-certified detectives in Duisburg will ascertain the true circumstances for you. Is your ex-partner who receives post-marital maintenance living in a committed relationship with a new woman? Is your estranged wife secretly employed and nevertheless continuing to receive full separation maintenance? Is your child who is entitled to maintenance genuinely still attending school? We conduct surveillance of the suspected persons, carry out enquiries under a pretext with former or current employers and, upon completion of the investigation, provide you with a written, court-proof documentation of evidence. If required, use our contact form or call us without obligation: +49 203 3196 0052. In an initial consultation, we will advise you free of charge and without obligation on any questions relating to maintenance investigations.
