I was trying to find a deadbeat husband who has not been following a court order. They found him! It didnt take as long as they thought so they refunded some of the money I paid them. I highly recommend them and I would hire them again.

I am very thankful to Bob for guiding me and taking the investigation very seriously. He is very diligent, responsive, swift and professional. Bob completed the job that he promised to do and then went way beyond the extra mile a few years later to help me recover lost surveillance. I could not have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Bob to anyone needing a trustworthy and truly exceptional PI.
