The world of private investigation is constantly evolving alongside legislation, technology, investigative techniques and new forms of fraud.

Our articles explore evidence gathering, surveillance, corporate investigations, insurance fraud, family investigations, people tracing, OSINT, digital investigations and developments in the legal and regulatory framework governing private investigators in France.
We also publish practical insights based on real investigative experience, anonymised whenever necessary, to explain how private investigations are actually conducted, which investigative methods may be considered and the legal boundaries that must be respected.
Founded in Paris in 2009 by Anthony Caudal, Agora Detectives conducts investigations throughout France and coordinates assignments internationally through a network of professional investigators.
Our aim is to provide clear, reliable and practical information based on real investigative experience.
