Critical:Professionalism
The company will harass your staff and works through public humiliation. Does not act like a veteran owned company and has low standards.

Chris did a great job locating a homeless defendant and getting her served. Other process servers were at their wits-end and told me that they could not find her. Chris went above and beyond to find the defendant and get the job done when others could not! I was very impressed.

Qualified does an amazing job at finding the facts and people. It's amazing what he can find on a person! He's not the cheapest PI out there, but I would say he's one of the best! He also has connections all over the place. If you need something in some random place, he probably has someone close by. I'm impressed.
