As legal counsel to an estate, I had been trying to find a missing heir for months with no luck, even after using two different paid online services. It turns out that the person was homeless, but somehow Wayne was still able to locate him in only a couple of days. Wayne went the extra mile and literally knocked on doors to locate our missing heir. Outstanding, professional results at a reasonable rate. The only person more pleased than me was the no longer missing heir!

EIKON SOLUTIONS had the pleasure of working a complicated multi-state investigation with Legal Investigation Services. We have worked with many investigators in other states, and this was one of the best experiences we have had. We highly recommend them in their service area.

This is by far the finest individual and investigative whiz-bang genius I've ever come across- but even though he was spot on in instantly identifying I was being catfishes by a Christine Marie (or she also said Elizabeth Sanders, I had in my head already fallen in love with a picture that was emailed to when we "met" through the message system on Match.com- of a woman who he pointed out at the time didn't exist that I had somehow convinced myself had to exist- that I foolishly rejected his advice that the whole thing was a scam orchestrated by folks in either the Soviet Union
