Rugen Team Investigations provides quality surveillance for infidelity, workers' comp, and personal injury cases.  With a background in radio and television and a bachelor's degree in Broadcasting & Film, Ron Rugen is adept with the use of video and still cameras, while making sure the evidence obtained is legal and court admissible.

Rugen has provided surveillance services for most of Columbia's leading law firms and has also provided professional testimony.  As a member of several PI associations and a board member of the Missouri Association of Private Investigators, Mr. Rugen attends conferences and seminars so he is constantly bettering his craft.  He is the founder and original owner of NetWebinars.com, which he has since sold, training literally hundreds of private investigators across the country.

All evidence gathered is obtained with the standard of protecting the target's "reasonable expectation of privacy".  That means obtaining only that video and photographic evidence that is public.  For example, it is illegal for any private investigator to videotape through the windows of someone's home.  However, once the target opens the front door, they are fair game -- on the streets, in restaurants, bars and grocery stores.


Cheating Spouse/Lover Surveillance and Potential Infidelity
If you suspect your spouse or lover is cheating, there is a great chance that you are correct.  However, whether you need the evidence to determine if you want to stay with them, for a divorce involving marital property or child custody, or just the peace of mind so you have the information you need, we have 15 years experience to help you.

Worker's Comp / Personal Injury Surveillance
Whether you need a glimpse into a "day-in-the-life" of the subject or just a few hours of surveillance, Rugen can help.  We will gather your evidence discreetly and in an ethical manner, without provoking the target or otherwise becoming a part of our own investigation.  We have long range video cameras for the mobile surveillance, as well as shirt button cameras and other discreet means of getting the evidence you need.  Find out if that back injury claim is legitimate by observing whether the subject leans over in the grocery store, bends over to pick up their dog after he does his business, or other activity.

In Personal Injury investigations, we can also interview witnesses, take photographs of accident scenes and otherwise gather the information you need to help you prepare for court.  As a former news reporter and student of the Reid Technique of Interviewing and Interrogation, Mr. Rugen will be able to assist you.
