Intrusive surveillance systems

Litigation frequently arises over the violation of privacy of a neighboring house through a security camera. The other party usually argues that the camera only has coverage inside the monitored area and that it is legal. We have extensive experience in making reports of this type, intervening as telecommunications engineering experts.
