Report
Praetorian supplies excellent guards for what I was doing (film/television stuff). Management was a bit inflexible and had trouble with changes in last minute scenarios, so if you need more flexibility in your schedule, they might not be able to help but the guards are great and worth every penny.

Jamal runs a tight ship, is very flexible and reasonably priced. I have needed to use Praetorian a couple of time on short notice and he has always been able to accommodate our needs.
