Redeemed Investigations is based here. Licensed, woman-owned, and working Melbourne, West Melbourne and the beachside communities every week.
Private investigation in Melbourne
If you are searching for a private investigator in Melbourne, you have probably already noticed how many of the results are not actually here. National directories, lead-brokers reselling your enquiry to whoever pays, and firms three hours away with a local phone number.
Redeemed Investigations is a Florida-licensed agency based in Melbourne — agency licence A 3200167, investigator licence C 3200122, both public record and both verifiable with the state in about thirty seconds. That check is worth doing on any investigator you are considering, not just us.
We handle surveillance, infidelity and custody matters, background investigations, locates, process serving, notary and JAC support for people and firms across Melbourne. You speak with the licensed investigator who will do the work, and the first conversation is free.
What investigative work in Melbourne actually looks like
Melbourne is the commercial centre of Brevard County, and it is a genuinely varied place to work. That variety shapes how a case gets planned.
The neighbourhoods behave differently
The established neighbourhoods around downtown and Eau Gallie have mature tree cover, narrow streets and residents who notice a car that has not been there before. The newer developments north toward Suntree and Viera are open, gated in places, and have their own visibility problems. Getting a useful vantage point is a different exercise in each, and guessing wrong costs a client hours.
The causeway corridor
A large share of Melbourne cases involve movement between the mainland and the beachside — people live on one side and work, socialise or spend time on the other. The crossings are limited, which makes movement patterns unusually documentable if you know the timings, and unusually easy to lose if you do not. Evening traffic across the causeways is not a detail you can plan around from a map.
Employment patterns
Melbourne's employment base includes a significant aerospace, defence and healthcare presence, and shift and badge-access schedules are quite different from a nine-to-five. That matters for surveillance timing and it matters enormously for process serving — attempting service at 2pm on a weekday, three times, against someone on a rotating shift is how a file ends up with an affidavit instead of a completed return.
The legal community
Melbourne has a substantial concentration of family law, criminal defence and civil firms, and a steady share of our work comes from them: witness location, custody documentation, surveillance and service of process. If you are an attorney or paralegal here, the attorney support page covers how we work with firms.
What this means for your case
Practically: the scope you are quoted reflects real drive times and real vantage points rather than an optimistic county-wide average, and the plan is built around when your subject is actually findable rather than when it is convenient to look.

Yes. Redeemed Investigations LLC is a Florida agency operating from Melbourne across Brevard County, licence A 3200167. We operate as a service-area business rather than publishing a street address — for a firm whose clients value privacy, that is deliberate. Meetings are arranged somewhere convenient and discreet, or handled by phone.
Search the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services licensing database. An agency needs a Class "A" licence and an individual investigator needs a Class "C". Ours are A 3200167 and C 3200122. If an investigator will not give you their number, that tells you what you need to know. There is a fuller walkthrough in hiring a private investigator in Florida.
Surveillance and investigative work is generally hourly plus expenses; defined pieces of work such as background checks and process serving are flat-fee. The variable is time, and locally that means how predictable the subject's routine is and how far apart the locations are. You get a written figure for your situation at the free consultation, before anything begins.
Yes — West Melbourne, Melbourne Village, Suntree, Viera, and across the causeways to Indialantic, Indian Harbour Beach, Satellite Beach and Melbourne Beach. See areas we serve for the full county.
That is what the consultation is for, and it is free. A lot of the calls we take end with "an investigation would not really help you here, but here is what might" — and that is a perfectly good outcome for both of us.
