01 · Bodyguard services in Miami

Visible enough to deter. Quiet enough to live with.

What most clients need is a stay that has been thought through.

A bodyguard in Miami is often requested for a season, an event or a short business trip. The request is simple; the preparation behind it is what makes the difference. Praetorian looks at who is travelling, where you will stay, how you will move and which moments carry more exposure.

Every assignment rests on four principles: anticipation, discretion, availability and adaptability. In a city where public life happens outdoors, on terraces, beaches and rooftops, discretion is not a style choice. It is what allows a family to enjoy its stay without feeling watched.

The approach is proportionate. Praetorian may advise fewer officers or vehicles than first imagined, because a lighter arrangement often fits Miami better and attracts less attention.

02 · The Miami context

Seasons, neighbourhoods and arrivals.

Miami changes with the calendar more than most cities. Preparation follows those rhythms.

Where you arrive

Commercial flights land at Miami International Airport or at Fort Lauderdale's international airport in Broward County, north of the city. Private flights use business aviation airports across Miami Dade and Broward counties, such as Miami Executive Airport or Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport. The choice affects the route, the timing and the meeting point, so it is part of the plan from the first exchange.

Where you stay

Brickell, Miami Beach, Bal Harbour, Coral Gables and Key Biscayne each have their own pace and access. Moving between the mainland and the beach depends on a small number of causeways, which makes timing and alternative routes worth planning, especially in the evening.

03 · How an assignment runs

A short message. A considered answer.

There is no long form to fill in. Your email, your destination and a few lines are enough to start.

  1. Your request. Dates, people travelling, addresses if known, and any particular concern.
  2. The first exchange. Praetorian asks the questions that matter and sets aside what is not needed.
  3. The proposal. A written proposal describes the scope, the duration and the conditions. Nothing is committed before you agree.
  4. Preparation. Residence, venues, routes and arrival points are reviewed before your stay.
  5. The assignment. Coordination continues in a dedicated conversation, so that changes of plan are handled as they happen.

Many clients combine services in the same request: protection and a chauffeur, or an audit of a rented residence followed by a technical sweep. One message can cover all of them.

04 · What can be included

05 · Framework

A Florida company, working internationally.

Praetorian Risk Management LLC is registered in Florida. Its European partner operates from France.

In Florida, private security licensing is administered by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Each arrangement is prepared within the rules that apply where it takes place, with appropriately licensed resources where the law requires them.

Most of Praetorian's clients are based outside France. For them, the value is continuity: the same counterpart can prepare a winter in Miami, a week in Paris and a stay in London, while each assignment follows local requirements.

Discretion covers information as well as presence. Itineraries and addresses are shared only with those who need them, and client names are never published.

Questions

Before your stay in Miami.

Answers to the questions most often asked before a first request.

There is no fixed rate card. The price depends on the number of people, the hours covered, the duration, the locations, the vehicles and any technical sweep. Praetorian prepares a proposal after a first exchange on your stay, and it may recommend fewer resources than you expected.

Praetorian Risk Management LLC is registered in Florida and works in partnership with Praetorian Close Protection & Support Service in Europe. Assignments are prepared with you and coordinated with the resources your request requires.

Requests linked to major events are welcome, and they are best sent early. Hotels, transport and schedules tighten during these weeks. The arrangement is defined after studying your programme, your venues and the people attending with you.

Yes. Chauffeur service is a service in its own right and can be arranged alone or with close protection. The vehicle, timing and itinerary are agreed for your request, without a promise of a particular model.

Arrivals are part of the plan, whether you land at Miami International, Fort Lauderdale's international airport or a business aviation airport in the area. The meeting point, the vehicle and the route are agreed and confirmed for your assignment.

Yes. A security audit reviews access, surroundings and practical weaknesses of a residence, and a technical sweep searches for hidden microphones and cameras with Praetorian's own equipment. Both are scoped before the visit.
