Yes, Rod Moratti holds a private investigators license #21-082495 under the Private Security Personnel Licensing Authority.  This is important because the license system regulates who can operate in the industry and ensures that we are trustworthy and upstanding citizens.

Rod is also a member and past committee member of the NZIPI (New Zealand Institute of Professional Investigators Inc).

Depending on the type of task, I operate on an hourly rate or come to a set fee arrangement.

I can find anyone in New Zealand and other investigators use me when they can’t find someone. And while other agencies can take up to 6 weeks or more to find someone, I work your case personally and report within 24 hours. Don’t get dragged into lengthy, costly trace enquiries.

For surveillance I will normally require two agents so we can swap around and maintain covert surveillance, even following targets into a café/bar or hotel etc. and blend in to maintain contact.

Management and reporting is additional and ensures a smoothly run, evidential operation.

I will assess your enquiry and discuss the number of cars/agents we require to obtain the evidence you seek.

The expenses depend on the task and may include, flights, accommodation, rental cars, parking, meals or more usually, a coffee or meal if the person we are following enters a café or restaurant and we need to blend in to maintain visual connection.

For surveillance jobs you need to allow us additional travel time each way to and from the job.

Payment is easiest by Internet banking, if you need the payment to be discreet at your end you are best to withdraw the cash and pay it into our account using the invoice number as reference. You can also make payment via PayPal or the payment link in our Xero online invoice.

Every task is different so it is not possible to list all costs and fees here. Simply contact me and begin the process. You will deal with Rod personally and your information is held with utmost confidentiality.

In most cases, due to the immediate nature of my operation, planning and costs, retainers are non-refundable.

Remember, you will be talking directly with me and everything is confidential.

No we can’t. The telcos will not make that information available and the Privacy Act prevents us from accessing text or phone record information. However we are experienced at obtaining information in other ways so feel free to contact us and Rod will assess your case and advise the best action to take.

I can obtain a person’s criminal and traffic conviction history usually within 3 days. The fee is NZ$350+GST and must be accompanied with authorisation and valid identification (a copy of the subject’s passport or NZ drivers license and include the signature page) from the person concerned and include their full name and date of birth. In New Zealand it is illegal for me to obtain someone’s criminal history without their authorisation.

For trace enquiries and background work, I conduct this from the Auckland office, usually without requirement to travel.

All my best surveillance agents are based in Auckland and Wellington so I will often send them to jobs around the country as the result is all important.

For surveillance and field visits, we operate in every part of New Zealand including (but not restricted to) Kaitaia, Bay of Islands, Whangarei, Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga, New Plymouth, Rotorua, Taupo, Gisborne, Palmerston North, Wellington, Blenheim, Nelson, Christchurch, Dunedin, Queenstown, Invercargill and West Coast.

Absolutely. For any Australian trace work I have abilities and contacts across Australia and for the Islands we can use local agencies or travel to site depending on the task.

Absolutely, we guarantee discretion and confidentiality. Your details are held securely and will never be shared. We have been licensed since 1989 and have an unblemished record of caring for our clients and deserving their trust.

Given an unlimited budget I can pretty much locate anyone on the planet and regularly locate individuals in other countries for clients. And because of my vast experience I am able to locate virtually anyone within New Zealand. I use investigative skills honed over 35 years, along with local knowledge of people and places, contacts and ingenuity.

I am here to help and with 35 years experience in dealing with such matters, can very often make things clear for you from the start. I am only an email or phone call away and will understand your concerns.

Remember, you will be talking directly with me and everything is confidential.

We receive many requests from individuals wishing to become a Private Investigator. Unfortunately positions are rare. If you are extremely lucky you may be able to align yourself with a currently licensed agency and work from the ground up. There are currently no positions available at Moratti & Associates.

Surveillance can be carried out without detection because we are highly experienced. We conduct operations ranging from the surveillance of spouses to an international multi-agent task over extended periods; no job is too large or too small. Because we are experienced, we will not be spotted and the evidence you require is obtained promptly and professionally.

Often vehicular surveillance is carried out utilising two cars and the agents are in contact via radio, often changing positions behind the target vehicle to avoid detection and ensure a successful operation. On foot or in public places like the street, bars, cafes and restaurants we blend in easily and can often be alongside the target listening to conversations or observing activity whilst remaining completely unnoticed.
