At Donlon Brand, we represent victims whose privacy and safety have been violated through tracking devices, stalkerware apps, and other forms of technological surveillance. Our attorneys understand the devastating impact of these invasions and are committed to helping you regain your security and seek justice.
What is Tech-Facilitated Stalking and Surveillance?
Technology-facilitated stalking involves the use of GPS trackers, smartphone spyware, hidden cameras, and other digital tools to monitor, track, or harass someone without their knowledge or consent. This invasive behavior is not only deeply violating but also often illegal under federal and state laws.
These cases have increased dramatically with the widespread availability of affordable tracking technology like AirTags, GPS devices, and spyware apps. According to recent studies, approximately 1 in 10 people has experienced some form of tech-enabled stalking, with former intimate partners being the most common perpetrators.
Victims often experience significant emotional distress, fear for their safety, and loss of privacy. These violations can constitute serious crimes including stalking, harassment, wiretapping, computer fraud, and in some cases, can escalate to physical violence or worse.
What sets our practice apart is our unwavering commitment to both rigorous case preparation and genuine human compassion. Our attorneys invest in extensive research, forensic investigation, and expert consultation for every case we handle. At the same time, we never lose sight of the person behind the legal matter—someone who deserves not just skilled representation, but also understanding and respect during a difficult journey.
Whether you’ve suffered from medical negligence, been injured by a defective product, experienced abuse, or faced any other serious harm, we approach your case with both the legal firepower to win and the empathy to support you through the process.

Common Examples of Tracking Device & Stalkerware Cases
Our firm regularly handles cases involving:
Hidden Vehicle Trackers
Abusive partners or stalkers secretly placing GPS devices under cars to track movements, leading to harassment or violence.
Smartphone Spyware
Secretly installed apps that monitor calls, texts, photos, and location data without consent, often used by controlling partners.
Smart Home Abuse
Ex-partners using shared access to smart home devices to monitor, harass, or intimidate victims by controlling lights, locks, cameras, or thermostats.
Hidden Cameras
Unauthorized recording devices placed in private spaces, hotel rooms, or rental properties to violate privacy.
AirTag Stalking
The misuse of Bluetooth trackers like Apple AirTags to follow someone’s movements without their knowledge.
If you’ve discovered unauthorized tracking devices, noticed unusual phone behavior, or suspect you’re being monitored through technology, you may have a case worth pursuing.
Tracking Devices & Stalkerware Focus Areas
We provide specialized legal representation across all forms of technological surveillance and privacy violations:
GPS Tracking Device Cases
Our attorneys handle cases involving unauthorized GPS trackers placed on vehicles or belongings. These devices enable stalkers to monitor victims’ movements, leading to harassment, violence, or worse. We represent clients in cases ranging from domestic abuse situations to organized criminal tracking for robbery or assault purposes.
Smartphone Stalkerware & Spy Apps
We combat the growing problem of secretly installed spyware on phones that monitors calls, messages, photos, and location. These invasive apps can record screens, capture passwords, and provide abusers with complete access to a victim’s digital life, often as part of controlling or abusive relationships.
Digital Harassment & Cyberstalking
Our team addresses cases where stalkers use social media location data, hacked accounts, fitness apps, or other digital footprints to track and harass victims. We help clients regain privacy and security while holding perpetrators accountable for their technological abuse.
Hidden Cameras & Audio Surveillance
We represent victims who discover unauthorized cameras or recording devices in homes, workplaces, rental properties, or public facilities. These serious privacy violations can lead to significant emotional distress and potential distribution of intimate images or recordings.
Digital Domestic Abuse & Coercive Control
Our attorneys specialize in cases where technology becomes a weapon in domestic abuse, including forced location sharing, password demands, and using smart home technology as a means of control and intimidation within relationships.
Revenge Tracking & Tech-Enabled Stalking
We handle cases involving former partners, dates, or acquaintances who use technology for retaliatory stalking and harassment. These situations often escalate from digital monitoring to dangerous in-person confrontations and violence.
Data Breaches & Identity Theft via Tracking Tech
Our firm addresses cases where tracking technologies lead to data breaches, identity theft, or other exploitation of personal information. This includes both individual perpetrators and corporate entities misusing location data.
Civil Lawsuits for Stalking Tech
We pursue civil lawsuits against both individual stalkers and the companies that produce stalkerware or tracking technologies without adequate safeguards against misuse. Our team works to establish legal precedents that protect future victims.
Victim Support & Legal Remedies for Digital Stalking
Beyond litigation, we provide comprehensive support to help clients detect hidden tracking, secure their devices, obtain protective orders, and connect with resources for ongoing protection from technological abuse.
