London House News

We enjoyed a spectacular day last month at The Grosvenor House Hotel in London to celebrate St Georges Day.

This is our annual trip to the event where we entertain clients and friends and is a wonderful occasion. 1500 people gather in the Great Ballroom and are entertained by the band of The Blues & Royals and various speakers, have a delicious lunch and celebrate the day. Pomp and pageantry at its best!

    By now, if you are on our mailing list, you will have received the latest edition of The Score  and this is also available through our e-newsletter, our website and this blog. We hope you enjoy it.
     As part of our continuing work on raising the London House profile in the multi media world, we now have our own corporate channel on YouTube. At the moment we are showing videos that were taken at recent Franchise Exhibitions, but who knows how this project could develop for us over time. Have a look and let us know your thoughts.

Focus on... Surveillance


Surveillance has always been a strength of the London House network and we continue to see demand for this service.

A large number of our instructions come from either Family Law Solicitors or revolve around employment law matters and whether the subject is working outside the terms of their contract or breaking any agreements whilst on gardening leave for example.
As you would expect, London house has access to a full array of equipment to help us and all of our evidence is fully detailed and catalogued, including DVD and photographic evidence, to allow our clients to proceed down the legal route if required.
Planning is key to these operations, and full site surveys are undertaken beforehand to help the operation go as smoothly as possible. Do please contact us if you would like more information about this specialist service.

Where are you going?


Working on a Family law matter, we were asked to undertake  surveillance on a male individual whose partner was becoming increasingly concerned about his working habits and whereabouts.
A two man team was deployed and we followed him from his home address to the local train station. There, our operatives stood behind him at the ticket kiosk and purchased the same tickets as the subject, before following him on the train to a neighbouring city. Keeping a safe distance, and all the while taking photographs and documenting activity he was seen making his way to a property in the city and letting himself in. Some time later the subject was seen leaving the property holding hands with a female and a child. It seems our man was leading a double life, unbeknown to each of the females.
