DETIX provides private investigations in Eastern Germany where business relationships, people or assets need to be examined in Berlin, Brandenburg, Saxony and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. We support companies, lawyers and private clients with focused research and investigations on the ground. DETIX – Die Ermittler is based in Dieburg near Darmstadt. Assignments are organised with suitable investigators and our established professional network according to the needs of each case.
Investigation services from Berlin to the Baltic Sea
Our private and corporate investigation services include CORPORATE INVESTIGATIONS, company checks and background research on business partners. We also provide surveillance services, investigations into specific employee misconduct, OSINT, and person and address searches. Asset investigations examine identified properties, shareholdings and ownership claims. International research extends the assignment where relevant leads point beyond Germany.
Berlin: business partners, technology and real estate
International companies, start-ups, technology businesses and service providers create a varied setting for investigations in Berlin. Before entering a partnership, you may need to establish whether a company name, its representative and claimed business experience are consistent. Our company checks compare these details. In property transactions, we distinguish a broker’s role from documented ownership or authority to act.
If you need an investigation agency or private investigator in Berlin, we plan around specific addresses and appointments. Berlin-Mitte, Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf and Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg are covered, alongside Spandau, Steglitz-Zehlendorf and other districts. A district name alone is insufficient for operational planning: the actual location and the activity to be established matter.
Brandenburg: production, energy and the Berlin region
Logistics, industry and energy technology connect Brandenburg with the Berlin economic region. A company may be managed from Potsdam while its production or warehouse is elsewhere. Our corporate investigations in Brandenburg can examine inconsistent operating addresses, unclear responsibilities or indications of undisclosed business connections. Your documents and the specific unanswered question provide the starting point.
For enquiries involving Cottbus, Frankfurt (Oder), Brandenburg an der Havel, Oranienburg and Schönefeld, we consider travel between business premises. An enquiry for a private detective in Potsdam can therefore include several locations. Where supply relationships extend to Poland, we first identify which details need checking in Germany and which in the neighbouring country.
Saxony: checking suppliers and technology companies
The automotive industry, mechanical engineering and microelectronics shape parts of Saxony’s economy. Research and medium-sized technology companies create further business connections. Supplier checks may establish which legal entity is the contracting party, what roles contacts hold and whether stated shareholdings can be substantiated. We examine confidential business documents only within the agreed and lawful scope.
Our investigation agency covers enquiries involving Leipzig, Dresden, Chemnitz, Zwickau, Görlitz and Bautzen. Whether you require a private investigator in Leipzig or corporate investigations in Dresden, we combine company research with necessary enquiries on the ground. For links to Czechia or Poland, we clarify local research conditions before additional work begins.
Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: ports, tourism and energy
Maritime businesses and Baltic port logistics are connected to international trade. A case in Rostock, Wismar or Stralsund may require separate checks of delivery records, business addresses and the identities of participating companies. DETIX examines stated connections and documents which details are substantiated. A port address alone establishes neither stock levels nor ownership.
Tourism and renewable energy may also form the business context of an enquiry. Our investigations in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania cover Schwerin, Neubrandenburg and Greifswald, as well as coastal communities and inland locations. For an investigator in Rostock, we discuss lead times, relevant sites and travel. All places named are service areas; DETIX does not maintain its own branches there.
Corporate investigations and suspected workplace misconduct
Unusual billing, missing goods or possible conflicts of interest require verifiable starting points. Our investigation service reviews dated incidents and defines the people, period and investigative objective involved. Corporate & Personal Background Checks can also clarify the commercial background of a business relationship. Findings that clear a person or company are recorded alongside substantiated discrepancies.
Surveillance with a defined objective
SURVEILLANCE is considered after assessing the lawful basis, necessity and proportionality of the proposed measures. We agree which activities need to be established and when. Employee investigations involve additional data protection requirements; involve your legal adviser in that assessment. Our investigators document observable facts with a time reference. A particular outcome concerning admissibility in court cannot be guaranteed in advance.
OSINT, person searches and asset investigations
OSINT and digital research help assess public company websites, identifiable connections and conflicting information. Sources are checked for origin, date and reliable attribution. In person and address searches we compare suitable identification details. An old profile does not establish a current home address.
For asset, property and ownership investigations specific properties or credible indications of shareholdings provide useful starting points. We distinguish legal ownership, use and merely suspected connections. Scope depends on lawful access to information and the purpose of your assignment. Confidential research channels and the identities of our professional partners remain protected.
Cross-border investigations involving Poland and Czechia
A German contracting party, a Polish supplier and a Czech contact may be part of the same case. DETIX Investigations coordinates the individual research questions and assesses suitable local assistance. Legal requirements, available information and additional costs are agreed before extending the work. An investigation permitted in Germany is not automatically permissible in another country.
Working with DETIX and commissioning an investigation
Companies identify the business decision or documented suspicion they need to address. Lawyers specify unresolved factual questions, deadlines and reporting requirements. Private clients can enquire about a lawful address search or checks of asset-related claims, for example. As a private detective and corporate investigation agency, we tailor the work to the specific question.
First describe the circumstances, relevant locations and information already established. We then discuss feasibility, proposed measures, fees and expenses. Agreed work begins once commissioned. Any extensions require agreement. Your report distinguishes established findings, leads and unresolved questions.

Five questions about investigations in Eastern Germany
Where in Eastern Germany does DETIX organise investigations?
Our focus is Berlin, Brandenburg, Saxony and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. We can include individual cities, rural addresses or several connected locations. Coordination is handled from Dieburg near Darmstadt. Availability, lead times and suitable investigators are assessed for your assignment.
What can be checked about a company or business partner?
Possible tasks include comparing company identity, contacts, business addresses and known shareholdings. Where business irregularities are suspected, we examine specific indications such as stock discrepancies or unclear billing. We assess which information is accessible and meaningful in relation to your question.
What conditions apply to surveillance?
A sound lawful basis and a clearly defined objective are required. The scope and intrusion must be proportionate to the circumstances, taking less intrusive options into account. Where an employee is suspected of a criminal offence at work, documented factual indications and the specific legal requirements must be assessed. Your legal adviser should be involved in that assessment.
Can an assignment extend to Poland or Czechia?
Yes, where there is a specific research question and the work is lawful and feasible. We review the initial information and arrange suitable local assistance where necessary. Measures, information channels and costs are agreed for each country; a German assignment does not automatically authorise every investigative step abroad.
How are the process and costs agreed?
After your initial enquiry, we define the scope. Research requirements, duration, staffing, travel and international elements determine the work involved. Fees, expenses, reporting arrangements and any advance payment are agreed before work begins. Additional services require separate agreement.
