Recording laws in Rhode Island: what you need to know.
Rhode Island is a one-party consent state under R.I. Gen. Laws §11-35-21. You may record a conversation you take part in — but a third party who secretly intercepts your private communications is breaking the law, and what they capture can be found and documented.
Phone, electronic & in-person — one-party
If you are a participant, you may record. You do not need the other side’s permission to record your own conversation.Secret third-party recording — illegal
Intercepting a conversation you are not part of, without any participant’s consent, is unlawful under R.I. Gen. Laws §11-35-21.Unlawful interception carries criminal and civil liability in Rhode Island. If you suspect you are being recorded or watched without consent, a professional sweep confirms it and documents the evidence.

Trust Breaks Down

What people are saying
Three decades of high-stakes cases — in the words of the people we protected.
Thanks, Michael, for discovering an illegal hook-switch bypass in our conference room — a bug that cost us billions. Even when the company couldn't be saved, it kept Lorenzo out of the airline industry for good.
Peros uncovered over 65,000 illegal intercepts. That evidence led to the case being thrown out — and earned praise from the U.S. Inspector General's Chief Investigator.
Michael Peros, our White Knight, saved us from malicious prosecution when we were wrongly charged with our child's murder. Exposing the illegal microphone hidden in our bedroom was key to prevailing — all charges dropped.
Michael saved me $3M in legal fees and protected 12 other defendants. He uncovered illegal wiretaps and a hidden “Brady Bug” in my office — what's considered the largest illegal wiretapping case in U.S. history.
Michael found a TK-400 Japanese audio bug hidden behind my desk. He saved my billion-dollar company — the greatest TSCM counter-surveillance engineer there is.
Thank you, Michael Peros, for saving my professional horse track from financial disaster by exposing 13 illegal wiretaps on the phones.
Who Needs Bug Sweeps in Rhode Island?
Rhode Island is a small state with an outsized presence in defense manufacturing and financial services. Electric Boat, a major submarine builder for the U.S. Navy, operates in the state; and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport makes Rhode Island a significant naval defense hub where classified and sensitive procurement discussions occur regularly.
Providence's financial services sector, including a significant wealth management and private banking community, manages investment strategy and estate discussions for New England's old money families and newer wealth. Rhode Island's healthcare system — particularly Lifespan and Care New England — generates significant competitive strategy and physician acquisition discussions.
Rhode Island's legal and political communities are highly interconnected in a small state where relationships are close and conversations in semipublic spaces are frequent. Our Rhode Island clients include defense contractor personnel, financial advisors, healthcare executives, and attorneys in Providence and Newport requiring discreet sweep services.
Frequently Asked Questions — Bug Sweeps in Rhode Island
Rhode Island is a one-party consent state under RI Gen. Laws §11-35-21. You may legally record conversations you participate in without notifying other parties. However, a third party secretly intercepting your private communications without being a participant commits a criminal offense and faces civil liability. A certified TSCM sweep documents unauthorized surveillance as evidence for law enforcement or litigation.
$800–$2,500 for residential sweeps; $1,500–$5,000 for commercial offices. Vehicle sweeps typically run $500–$1,200. All Bugged sweeps use law-enforcement-grade equipment and include a written report. Call for a confidential quote specific to your situation.
A complete TSCM sweep covers RF spectrum analysis to detect active transmitters, physical inspection of walls, outlets, fixtures, and furniture, non-linear junction detection for dormant electronics, infrared and lens detection for hidden cameras, telephone and data line analysis, and a full review of networked devices. You receive a written report documenting findings and any evidence collected.
Most residential sweeps take 2–4 hours. A mid-size office or suite runs 3–6 hours. Larger facilities — executive floors, law firms, or multi-room commercial spaces — may require a full day. We work around your schedule and can sweep after hours or on weekends to maintain complete discretion.
Stop discussing anything sensitive in the suspected space immediately. Do not move, unplug, or rearrange objects — maintaining the scene preserves evidence. Contact a certified TSCM specialist right away. If a device is found during the sweep, law enforcement can use it to trace the source. Every engagement with Bugged is fully confidential.
Your privacy deserves protection today.
