Kiel: Modern City with Everyday Challenges

Kiel’s old town with its historic buildings was unfortunately not rebuilt after the destruction caused by the Second World War – on the contrary, the remains were permanently removed to make way for a city with modern architecture. Only a few historic buildings from the 19th century have survived, including the Ravensberg Water Tower, the main railway station, and the Humboldt School Kiel. It has only been since the turn of the millennium that efforts have been made to reconstruct the historic buildings and give the city back its "face".

Of course, the destroyed architecture is not the main concern for Kiel’s residents. Moral offences, as well as misdemeanours and crimes, affect the quality of life. Suspicions of infidelity in partnerships or marriage are among the most frequent issues reported to our private detectives in Schleswig-Holstein. Around 75 percent of these suspicions are justified, often leading to separation or divorce. Our affected clients are not alone, as while the number of marriages in Kiel has remained almost steady, the number of divorces is now rising: of approximately 430 marriages in Q4 2015, around 170 ended in divorce.

Detective Investigations in Maintenance Fraud

After separation, maintenance is determined, and it is common for false information to be given or income to be concealed for personal advantage. Income earned from socially insured employment may be underreported, an undeclared secondary job (moonlighting) hidden, or a new cohabiting relationship concealed to avoid maintenance reductions.

If you suspect your ex-partner is keeping you uninformed about their income or living situation – both of which affect the amount of maintenance to be paid or received – contact our expert private investigators in Kiel. We investigate actual income, including rental income, severance payments, and pensions, or observe the individual to determine if they are working undeclared or already living in a new marital-like relationship. Using the court-admissible evidence we provide, you can assert your rightful claims.

Investigations by Our Private Detectives in Cases of Stalking, Violence, Property Crime, and Other Offences

In 2014, the number of property crimes in Kiel rose after falling the previous year. Conversely, clearance rates (CR) continue to decline. There were 6,687 cases of aggravated theft (CR 11.2 percent), 5,333 cases of simple theft (CR 42.8 percent), and 3,210 asset and forgery offences (CR 75.3 percent), including fraud, recorded in 2014. Residential burglaries and vehicle thefts increased significantly. In total, 24,380 crimes were reported in Kiel – the dark figure is significantly higher. Offences such as sexual autonomy violations, bodily harm from domestic violence, stalking, coercion, and threats often go unreported out of shame. Fortunately, many victims turn to Kurtz Private Detective Agency Kiel and Schleswig-Holstein, as the official CR of 46.7 percent for overall crime offers little hope that offenders will be held accountable by authorities; victims often fear further retaliation. Years of staff reductions in law enforcement, coupled with rising crime and declining investigative capacity, have eroded victims’ trust in executive and judicial authorities.

Whether it involves property crime, bodily harm, coercion, or other offences – our experienced detectives in Kiel are qualified investigators who handle your case professionally and discreetly, even in sensitive matters: +49 431 3057 0053.
