A matrimonial investigation involves gathering information to confirm the trustworthiness, background, and behavior of a potential or current spouse. Such investigations are usually conducted by private detectives or agencies and can cover aspects like:
Background Verification: Checking the person’s family, financial background, employment history, and educational qualifications.
Pre-marital Affairs: Investigating if the individual has any undisclosed relationships or extramarital affairs.
Criminal Records: Looking into the person’s criminal history, if any.
Character and Behavior: Observing the person’s behavior, habits, and social circles to ensure compatibility and trustworthiness.
Financial Status: Verifying claims about income, property ownership, or debt, to avoid future financial surprises.
Health and Addiction Issues: Detecting any health issues or addictions that the person might be hiding.
Matrimonial investigations can be done before marriage (pre-matrimonial) or after marriage (post-matrimonial) if there are suspicions about infidelity or other issues. These investigations are often discreet and conducted without the knowledge of the individual being investigated.
