About Us

At Private Investigator Cape Town, led by Jaco van Schalkwyk, we have been dedicated to helping clients find closure and justice for over a decade. With extensive experience in tackling complex cases involving fraud, murder, white-collar crime, employee theft, bribery, and corruption, we have earned a reputation for providing reliable, discreet, and thorough investigative services.

Our Investigative Approach:

Jaco and his expert team specialize in investigating alleged offenses and gathering critical evidence needed to support a strong case. Once evidence is collected, it is presented to the South African Police Services (SAPS), and we assist our clients in officially opening and registering the case at the police station.

Due to the high volume of cases handled by SAPS detectives, our team continues to support the investigation process, ensuring that no detail is overlooked and that your case receives the attention it deserves. While SAPS may handle between 50 to 60 cases at any given time, we remain committed to providing the focus your case requires.

Criminal and Civil Case Support:

After gathering evidence for the criminal case, the lead private investigator works closely with legal counsel to guide clients through the civil process, helping them recover illegally obtained funds from suspects. While SAPS focuses primarily on the criminal aspect of the case, it is essential for clients to use the same evidence to pursue a civil matter.

In criminal cases, the evidence is shared with the attorney of the accused as “further particulars” but is not made available to the attorney in the civil case. That’s why our investigators maintain detailed records and copies of all evidence, ensuring the client’s case is not hindered, especially if the case docket is lost or misplaced.
