Infidelity causes a lot of trauma that might be very difficult to cope with if you don't have an account of what is really going down with your partner when you are not together.
If you keep getting these signs it's most likely to be true your partner is cheating. That's not the end of life anyway, you can make a choice that suite you and be to your advantage for something like that to never repeat itself. For anyone that find themselves on this situation, what you need is to contact a private ethical investigator named jeff, mail him at SHERLOCKSTORM(at)YAHOOcom for any reasonable proof before you confront your cheating partner about cheating or infidelity. His services are highly rated and affordable regardless whether your problem is personal or commercial he will help you, put your worries aside and give yourself a peace of mind you deserve. I'm a witness of his helpful service and I highly recommend him. My relentless and endless search for a solution brought me to acquaintance to a very SAVY PROFESSIONAL HACKER WHO SPECIALIZES IN HACKING INTO ANY MOBILE DEVICE.
We got along and eventually i provided all the information he needed to hack into my Ex husband device. I was able to gain access to all APPS ON HIS DEVICE, LISTEN TO ALL INCOMING CALLS, MONITOR HIS TEXT MESSAGES , PHOTOS AND VIDEOS, i basically had is phone cloned right in my hands. What I found broke my heart into a million pieces, I discovered he already fathered 2 children outside our marriage and He was even planning to file a divorce the coming month.
I eventually got all necessary proofs I was able to present in court to get rid of him before he pulled his strings.

Working with Jeff from SHERLOCKSTORM INVESTIGATIONS was an amazing experience. I felt like I was working with a friend. He seemed to take a personal interest in my infidelity case and never gave up until we came to a conclusion.
Sadly I noticed a drastic change in my husband behavior, I needed to have him followed up and checked because I am home with the boys and also 6 months pregnant. He keeps driving me crazy, going to work at odd hours, making several secret calls, he goes out late at night, the height of it all is that he wouldn’t let me touch his phone, that was when I knew something was wrong. Thanks to SHERLOCKSTORM@yahoocom, who kept my sanity in check. With the help of SHERLOCKSTORM@yahoocom I found out that this man had been cheating on me with our neighbor, Jeff was very helpful I was able to gain access to my husband phone, I read all his text messages(including deleted ones) I listened to his live conversations, I had access to all his social media accounts and emails, I had access to his photos and videos, I also monitored and tracked his locations trying to cross reference it with the timeline. What I saw broke my heart into a million pieces.
If I knew of someone needing this kind of service I would not hesitate to recommend jeff and his Company.

I have been in a long-distance marriage because of the nature of my job, my wife cheated on me times without a number. So I went around to make sure She was caught in the act. During these past few weeks, I observed her activities closely because I always had a feeling that I was missing something before I knew it I found myself playing detective and gathering together a lot of clues that led me to understand the type of person she really was. I tried all I could to get into her phone until my friends introduced me to Professional Private investigator SHERLOCKSTORM. He is a certified ethical hacker and also an IT specialist In my friend's company. I had my doubts about his services at first until he delivered and provided the services in a few hours. I wasn’t sure how he did it, I told him all I wanted and provided all the information he requested, we agreed on an affordable price and I was able to see all that my wife does on her device. That was how I succeeded to get all the proofs I needed to confront her and take custody, I’m glad I contacted him. You can reach out to him on SHERLOCKSTORM (@) yahoocom. More...

I contacted Jim at GHOSTSPYTECH investigations
after finding suspicious emails on my
wifes computer. Jim assigned a crack
investigative team to hack into my wife’s mobile device
and within 24 hours With the help of GHOSTSPYTECH@outlookcom I gained remote access to her mobile phone without her having the slightest idea and I was able to monitor her text messages, calls and conversations, photos, her gps locations and other available apps I could lay my hands on. I knew what i was looking for was somewhere in there. The chats, photos conversations and their
detailed report obtained from her mobile device were extremely helpful to
my attorney in my subsequent divorce. Due
to their outstanding efforts I got a great
settlement and primary custody of my son.
I would recommend GHOSTSPYTECH@outlookcom to everyone. Jack

Andy Kay and his staff are phenomenal! I consulted with Andy about a personal matter that was causing much worry and concern. This matter involved travel and dealing with third parties. Andy was very knowledgeable and handled the entire situation with tact, patience and professionalism. Andy is also an excellent communicator. Britni, Andy's associate is awesome. I truly appreciated her kind and friendly demeanor. Britni kept me informed and updated throughout the entire situation with text messages. She replied back to my texts in a timely manner and truly understood my concerns. Bottom line... Andy and his crew are truly amazing and they get the job done! If I am ever in need of any type of investigative services in the future, Kay & Associates will be definitely my #1 choice. Thanks Andy for a job well done! More...

OMG ANDY IS AMAZING!! I am pregnant and only had my child father name and birth date and I called Andy and within an hour and a half he had his information for me. Right after I found him I called my friend and told her and she looked him up to make sure he is legit and she called him as well so Andy was working on BOTH of our cases at the same time and gave us our results at the same time. I am SO HAPPY I called and was able to retrieve the information I needed. I will be passing his information into ANYONE AND EVERYONE I KNOW who needs a private investigator. More...

My child was assaulted on public property, where my child is a minor and the adult was threatening and demeaning my child. Police were not helpful, so I looked up private investigators to help get this issue resolved and prosecute the person who wronged my kid. Long story short, we were able to close the case through some serious work by Andy Kay and His team of Investigators. They handled everything from background checks, to criminal history searches, and found the owner of the building when no one else could figure out who it was due to quite confusing records. We appreciate the hard work and compassion that we got from Kay and Associates. More...

I'm very grateful for Kay and Associates for helping my friend uncover the most difficult situation of her life. My friend contemplated for months and months on whether or not she should hire a private investigator to see if her husband was being unfaithful in their marriage. She decided to pursue it and came across Kay and Associates on yelp.com. She immediately called and spoke to Andy. Andy was so helpful and empathetic; he stayed on the phone with my friend for nearly an hour and provided her all the information she needed. My friend knew she could trust Kay and Associates and quickly put them to work. The result was incredible! They were able to gather so much information on her husband and provided the full detail on his whereabouts. Kay and Associates went above and beyond what my friend expected them to do and she is forever grateful for their hard work.It was extremely painful to watch my friend find out that her husband (now soon-to-be ex-husband) was truly cheating on her. It was hard and she was in agony, but now she can move on and have peace of mind. Thank you, Andy at Kay and Associates, for helping my dear friend. More...

Kay and Associates saved my friend from a difficult situation. It was a hard decision for her to hire a private investigator to check if her husband was really cheating on her. One day she finally decided to do her research and came across Kay and Associates. She quickly called them and spoke to Andy. I was there when she made the call and I can honestly tell you that I've never heard anyone be so helpful and understanding as Andy. He stayed on the phone with her for as long as she needed and answered all her questions and concerns. I was very impressed with Andy's professionalism; he was calm and composed, but at the same time he showed so much compassion to my friend. I knew then she made the right decision to call Kay and Associates. They proceeded with the case and delivered the result that she knew in herself to be true. It was the hardest thing that my friend ever had to hear, but she was grateful to finally have the real answer. She can now have peace of mind and bid farewell to her unfaithful husband. Kay and Associates, thank you for everything! Thank you for helping my best friend. More...

Andy Kay gave me a thorough report and suggestions as to what needs to be done to get the utmost result in my divorce. He was always available whenever I had questions and was professional in his dealings. I would confidently recommend him to anyone who needs something investigated. If there more stars available, I would give him a 6 instead of a 5. More...

Kay and Associates was able to help me greatly in a construction defect case. They were able to find not only the last owner and contractor for interviews and information, but also the original contractor. They even were able to locate a past insurance policy that not only protected us, it protected the previous owner as well. Their knowledge of construction and the laws were incredible. There is no question about who I would hire in the future. Kay and Associates will be my only call. More...

What do you love most about your job?
Solving Cases and helping people, I know it sounds cliche but I really like to help people when they need it. Most of my clients are in a bad situation when they call me, I understand it, the hurt, the embarrassment, and the anger. I like figuring out the cases and catching the opposition red handed while giving my clients peace of mind.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Working with the AG's office and being attached to so many State and Federal Law enforcement Agencies, I learned everything I could and decided to go to the private sector. I excelled and quickly became in-demand by many companies globally. While working with a very accomplished Ex-FBI agent, he convinced me to start my own company and it only continues to be one of the most successful investigations company I know of. I love my job...
