Highly recommend! Jax is professional, experienced and thorough. I have worked with him over the last 10 years on a variety of personal affairs. He trustworthy and a proactive communicator, who sets expectations on approach and charges, so there are never any surprises. I’d refer him to my closest friends and family. Enough said.

I wanna thank these guys so much. They did a fantastic job. I will definitely pass their name on!!

We were so grateful for the help we received from Jax and his team. Even though our case wasn’t as serious as others they deal with, it was incredibly personal to us and pretty unique. Jax always showed empathy and compassion, taking the time to thoroughly research details to ease our minds. We were touched by his generosity and caring nature, and would definitely recommend his company to anyone looking for answers. Although I our case is not entirely closed I still feel at ease for the time being due to this companies surveillance they’ve conducted for us.

Atwell Investigations was really helpful for myself and my family. They truly care about their work and put in the time and effort necessary to get real results. I would recommend them to anybody.

I have used Atwell on several occasions for complicated background investigations, as well as boots on the ground cases. The outcomes delivered have always been better than expected, on time, and at a reasonable cost. I highly recommend Atwell.

Did my due diligence and researched and got a few quotes from similar PI’s and services offered but it was a very easy decision once I spoke to Rick at Aragon Investigations. He was punctual, kind and so very quick & efficient. Great with communication and extremely competitive pricing. Others were over five times the price and not close to the quality of service. If you’re needing a PI you probably are in a delicate situation and you really should find someone who isn’t going to waste your time or money. Rick is your guy. A professional who gets the job done. I haven’t doubted his commitment to my situation once.

Rick is Professional and Prompt. Since the the first phone call he answered all my questions and did what I needed him to do.. He was quick to get to business the following day and Made Excellent communication daily via email on a timely matter, which I appreciate.. I wouldn’t look anywhere else if I needed him again! I got my answers and couldn’t have done it without his work! He is great on what he specializes in and will continue to provide his skills to anyone who may need the assistance of his services..

Rick was wonderful to work with. He listened and asked thoughtful questions, and then guided us on what we needed him to do for us, to achieve our goal. Rick was able to get us substantial results in just a few days and further information within the following week. We are so appreciative and would absolutely work with him again. Highly recommend.

Rick responded on a Sunday to our inquiry. Our son had returned from a military deployment overseas and was out of contact and we were worried about him. Rick’s services and response are first-class. Highly recommend.

Rick has been amazing in helping me navigate my situation! Very knowledgeable, kind, and understanding, and he is always so quick to reply with any information or questions! I would recommend him to anyone needing PI services.

I am an attorney from another state. I contacted Rick because we had a difficult serve that needed to be done and another company was failing to accomplish. He remained in contact with me throughout the process and notified me of different options as they would arise. His prices are very competitive and most importantly, he got the job done. I could not be more pleased with Aragon’s services, I highly recommend them.

I recently sought out Aragon Investigations for their services and I’m glad I did. Rick is very professional and very responsive. I was impressed with how detailed the information that I received back for the PI work he did. If I need a PI again in future I will seek their services again. I highly recommend his wide range of services to anyone looking to hire a PI.- Veronica

Amazing business and affordable. Today has been my second time using them. Chris was an amazing help and you can tell that they have a great ethic. I really appreciate all the help that they give and the professionalism that they show. I honestly can’t be happier with their service and how fast they can do the job. Thank you Chris!

I needed help locating someone for the purposes of a legal matter. With so many scammers on the internet, I was very cautious about who I chose. After filling out the “Contact Us Today” form on their website, I heard from Jeremy in less than 24hours. He was extremely patient in listening to my circumstances and providing me with the option(s) that best suited my needs. Once my payment was received, the turnaround time for the background check I ordered was completed within 2 days! Jeremy and his staff remained available to answer any questions I had and referred me to another reputable company that helped me serve the other party in less than 48 hours. I don’t leave reviews for numerous reasons but my situation was critical! Choosing to hire OPS Consulting was a critical decision that paid off for me and could certainly benefit someone else! They delivered superb professionalism and executed the plan of action!

I’m glad to have done business with such a great team of professionals. I thought the process would take long however, working with this team made things very quick and easy. I would recommend them to anyone I personally know. With that being said thanks again!

Jeremy and Matthew did a great job tracking down and gathering all the records I needed. They were very professional and communicated and followed up throughout the whole process. They never left me wondering. I would highly recommend using OPS Consulting and Investigative Services.

Amazing Team, Amazing Service. These guys went above and beyond to help me. They were fast and extremely detailed. I cannot thank them enough. You shouldn’t even consider another private investigation agency, OPS Consulting is the way to go.

I have worked closely with staff of this company, and know that the level of expertise and professional manner are excellent. My experience with them has been great and I will recommend their services to many others. Thank you.

Matt is a very caring, professional and knowledgeable person. He was very kind and effective with the information provided. I am very thankful and I am sure that they can meet your needs. Highly recommended!

I had a great experience working with Jeff. He is professional, knowledgeable, and very thorough throughout the entire process. Jeff informed, answered all of my questions, and handled everything with discretion and professionalism. I really appreciated how reliable and attentive Jeff was , and I felt like he genuinely cared about helping me. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional private investigator!

Call these guys first if you need a pi. They were experienced , told me what to expect and were very transparent about the case as it progressed. Plus they very affordable , they didn’t try boost the fees up and didn’t judge me for my situation. I can tell you from experience they experts at locating people and would recommend you call them first.

They helped me locate a missing family member! I’m so grateful for Jeff & his team. They communicated with us so well during the entire process I’d definitely recommend them

Quantum investigations is a great company.Jeff was professional and his prices were very affordable for what I needed done.I would recommend him to all of my friends and family.

I do not live in Arizona and I was not sure who to reach out to for help on my case. I spoke with Jeff and he was quick to put a plan in place to help me gather the information I needed. He was constantly available and was always communicating with me throughout the investigation. I highly recommend the services they provide. Thank you Jeff for your professionalism and guidance. I would not have been prepared for my case without your help.

Quantum is a top notch team. They initiated my investigation the same day I contacted them. Jeff did a great job keeping me informed. I highly recommend Quantum and will certainly work with them againa

As soon as well called he was on it. Huge thank you to Jeff Penrod for helping us get some very important information needed. If you ever need a private investigator. Jeff is your guy!!!

I was able to work with Fisheye Investigations to help me with my case in Memphis. I didn’t trust anyone in my city. They handled my case with care and were able to help with call tracing and also working with my attorney to subpoena phone records. They made other great suggestions for investigation that were helpful. Pricing was reasonable and fair and professionalism was top-tier. I would hire them again. 💯

Fisheye is a great firm. They put in 100% effort intp helping me. Sharnai and Nish were great and extremely professional!

If and when you get in trouble (& hopefully you don’t)and have to do home detention, Fisheye investigation group, is the way to go!! Sharnai was very kind, respectful and understanding. Treated me like a human!! Nobody wants to be on home detention, but if you need to be fisheye is who you should be using. Top notch!!! Thank you and God Bless

My name is Steven Grant , I was facing 8yrs in Prison and had no faith in the justice system. The Phx Police tried to throw me under the bus with no evidence connecting me to the crime and still locked me up. Then this Wonderful Investigative team took on my case and with Her diligence and determination she found the truth the Police was trying to hide to keep thier conviction rate High. And She saved my Freedom. The case was dismissed without prejudice. Thank you so much without your teams hard work another Black Man would have been incarcerated for a crime he didn’t commit. I owe you guys my life . Thank you again and keep up the Good Work

Staff was very cordial and professional. Answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. The entire process went very smooth. Would highly recommend for their services

My situation was extremely stressful dealing with title fraud and squatters and working with Greg was the one part that felt easy. He’s genuinely a nice guy who understands the importance of accurate information and delivers it with professionalism. Adam & Eve Investigations was thorough, responsive, and precise from start to finish. I’m very glad I reached out. I provided the details I had, and Greg quickly returned the critical information I needed to move my case forward. He was prompt, professional, and exceptionally effective. I highly recommend this company. Thank you Greg!!

I had an excellent experience with Adam and Eve Investigations. They were professional, responsive, discreet, and thorough throughout the entire process. Communication was clear, expectations were realistic, and they took the time to understand exactly what I needed rather than simply going through the motions. I especially appreciated their attention to detail and the quality of the information they provided. They handled a sensitive situation with professionalism and discretion and gave me useful, actionable results. I would absolutely recommend Adam and Eve Investigations to anyone looking for a dependable and professional private investigation firm.

I contacted Greg at Adam & Eve during a stressful time, I had been conned and defrauded during a business dealing. Greg was extremely sympathetic, asked questions that I hadn’t considered and showed a genuine desire to help. His curious nature is an amazing fit for his work. He was able to find the person the same day and provide me with details needed to start legal action. I have never needed the services of a private investigator before so I didn’t know what to expect. Greg’s caring approach will have me coming back if I ever need more in the future. Thanks Greg, I truly appreciate your work!

what a helpful team.. Gave them my issue and they took me seriously.. went to work and followed up with answers.. great to work with.. highly recommend!!!!

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Adam and Eve Investigations for their exceptional assistance in serving an individual. Their professionalism, dedication, and expertise made a daunting task much more manageable. Without their help, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this important milestone in such safe manner. I highly recommend Adam and Eve Investigations to anyone in need of investigative services. Thank you once again for your invaluable support! My family is now safe, Thank you Greg ❤️ 💙 💜

In the middle of the storm and when hope has been most needed I reached out to Greg and immediately he showed great emptahy towards my situation. Since day 1 he went above and beyond to go the extra mile to help me find my son. The fact that he priorities responding to phone calls and the way he responds to customer text messages immediately denote his commitment to help his clients to solve a problem no matter how challenging that seems to be. I highly recommended Adam and Eve Investigative services to anyone who is in need of finding out the truth and getting back peace of mind for whatever the situation may be. I have never hired a PI before and wasn’t quite sure what to expect and I am so glad I use Adam and Eve services I would highly recommend Greg if you are looking for someone who can meet and exceed all your expectations.

I very highly recommend Adam & Eve Investigations LLC. They are top-notch investigators. They get the job done. They are right there when you need them. They don’t mess around. You can put your full trust in them. They go above and beyond for you. They are beyond great, they’re excellent!!! I highly appreciate them and I highly recommend them Thank you very much to your team at Adam & Eve investigation LLC VYChavez

I had the pleasure of working with John and was very impressed with his quick actions and solutions. He has earned my respect in his professionalism, efforts and experience. His pricing is very reasonable and I would highly recommend his services and hire him again! Thank you, Leobardo Ramirez

Man was very rude, I started to open up about my issue with harrassment and he hung up.lol Very rude, dont use this guy. I took Criminal Administration at Phoenix College and was College Saftey under Chief McFadden ATF, go somewhere else.

This group is way better that their current reviews. I pick them for a task based on their 4.8 rating but I got better service than that. They excellent; very responsive, great value and pleasant to relate to. I highly recommend them.

Extremely satisfied with this service. I got the results rather quickly. John is very professional and attentive to your needs. I highly recommend.

We employed Strategic Investigations and Security at the very last moment for a very urgent requirement. We had no avenue to turn to given the situation and needed a swift turn around. Strategic Investigations and Security delivered the highest level of service we’ve experienced and within 10 mins or lesser of the initial request. With their help we were able to get the job done decisively and their communication and work ethic is unparalleled. Its rare to find such top shelf work ethic nowadays and we recommend them whole heartedly given our astounding experience with them.

I had my results back quickly after getting in contact. Didn’t have to wait very long to hear from John.

Excellent quick service. I got more information then what I asked for within several hours and the price was reasonable. Highly recommend

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Dorian and can confidently say his professionalism, attention to detail, and discretion set him apart in the investigations industry. He runs a tight, trustworthy operation, and it’s clear he takes pride in delivering results with integrity. Highly recommend his services to anyone in need of reliable investigative support.

I highly recommend Bond Investigations. Dorian has done an excellent job for me in the past, and I will hire him for any future needs. He’s my Go-To Investigator!

I hired Dorian in 2023 and paid him $950. He completed maybe 10% of the job. Due to circumstances beyond our control, we had to wait a year before continuing. During that time, he assured me I have credit with him for 2 years—by his own words, almost the entire credit was still available. A year later when it was finally time to resume, I reached out multiple times—calls, voicemails, text messages—and he completely ghosted me. I wasn’t in a position to just give away that kind of money for nothing, and he knew my situation. So yes, I do feel like he scammed me. A complete disregard to his customer’s needs and their situation. Before I hired him, I even asked about the bad reviews he already had. He claimed they came from an ex-employee who was just angry and spreading lies. I decided to give him a chance. That was a mistake! I’m not his employee—and based on my experience, I believe all bad reviews he has are true. I’m very disappointed and feel taken advantage of. Shame on people like that. And for the record, I have the proof to support it all. READ THE REWIES AND TRUST IT!

Beware – Complete Scam and Waste of Money This was by far the worst $1500 I’ve ever spent. Dorian Bond took my money and provided absolutely nothing in return. He started the investigation on August 14th and didn’t bother to respond until November 17th. When he finally did respond, he had the audacity to ask us to provide our own research that we had uncovered. He conducted three half-hearted visits that yielded no results, and his communication was atrocious. Calls and emails were completely ignored for weeks. When he finally responded, he refused to explain anything about his work and outright refused to issue a refund. His behavior was rude, unprofessional, and completely incompetent. Do yourself a favor and stay far away from this scam artist. He clearly has no regard for his clients and is completely uninterested in doing any real work. Avoid this company at all costs.

Mr. Dorian was wonderful to work with. He took the time to fully understand my issue. Gave suggestions of things I could do on my own and options ue could do for me. He even took the time follow up with me to see if I still needed anything. Highly recommend.

Awesome working with a private investigator. 1st time for me and we got to work directly with the owner and the office manager. We were given live real time updates as our case progressed. I highly recommend using this companies services. Very prompt and they do the job you need done right the first time. We will definitely be using the services in the future and definitely referring to our colleagues.

This individual (and agency) is strictly interested in collecting a fat fee upfront and doing absolutely nothing to earn it. He showed up only once after collecting several thousand dollars for a serious project. No way his few hours of work on one day is equivalent to the time, effort and services for which we contracted. Dorian Bond is 100% con man. If I could give him zero or negative stars, I definitely would. Do not hire him for any reason. Better to buy some high quality surveillance or recording equipment and DIY. A lot cheaper and you will at least gather some results. Filed a complaint with the state licensing board for PIs. This supposed investigator has a license to steal and he uses it.

I was promised help only to be handed off to “another investigator.” After paying the 1k for intel I received an email with a bunch of bogus intel and a call from someone who claimed to be with there agency demanding another 10k to “get the job done.” Very odd… and no one is answering my calls now.

Cutty Investigations went above and beyond for my family. The team of investigators was skilled and efficient in helping us locate a missing family member. What started as a needle in a haystack situation has turned into quite the success story. It has been long journey and we aren’t out of the woods yet, but we can thank Cutty for helping us save a life. I consider them family and would recommend them to anyone needing a service like this.

During an unfortunate time of my life, I found Cutty Investigations and they had helped me uncover a person that I thought I knew for the last 5 years of my life to be anything BUT what was told all the time. I cannot thank Cutty enough for their commitment in helping me find the truth.

Where do I start? Let me start by saying- your service personnel were stellar, by the way. I couldnt have asked for a better team. Koshi and Brian are top notch.

A divorce is never nice, but mine turned very ugly. Make sure Cutty is on your side. I’m glad I did.

You saved me Millions! Wow… Now I can go on with my life – You truly are the best at what you do! I will recommend you to anyone in need of an investigator.

When I didnt know where to turn, this investigation firm got the answers I needed in my case.

Highly recommended. Chrissy or Chris they get the job done and are highly professional. They get it done within the deadlines you have. They helped me track down my niece’s father, who jumped states and was a little tricky to find, but they got it done. I’m highly thankful for them. Thank you, guys, so much for all the work you got done for me

wife hired him to help to Protect our aunt from elder abuse.paid $3500.for 3 background checks (info we had already found online for free)checking house for unknown devices,&help to get into her email (said they had skills to get her password.. she has Alzheimer’s)which they couldn’t do. So disappointed because it was more $ out of her acct. which was already drained from personal we hired him to investigate.He & his wife seemed genuinely caring. Another lesson learned 🙈

This review is intended to clarify that Missing In America Network is not affiliated with and does not endorse or recommend Arizona Private Investigation Services LLC. Our organization worked alongside this provider briefly in the past, but that relationship ended in 2024. Since that time, we have publicly maintained separation. We are aware that marketing materials currently circulating may create confusion due to similarities in design and style to Missing In America Network flyers. These materials were not produced or authorized by our organization, and there is no current working relationship. Based on my professional experience, I encourage families to carefully research, verify credentials, and seek clear written expectations before retaining any private investigator. This review reflects my personal experience and professional opinion.

Chris and his team helped me find my daughter who left our home in March and was in desperate need of medical care. He helped us create flyers and get the information out quickly on social media platforms and reached out to the multiple Police and Sheriffs Depts. I was working with after completing a missing report. I did not feel completely confident in the PD’s to do their part to find her because they have so many investigations already on their plate and someone on social media recommended I reach out to Chris and I cannot express how much he has helped my daughter and my entire family as she was able to receive the treatment and services she needed. I highly recommend reaching out to them if you are ever in this emergency situation like we were. You will not regret it and he goes above and beyond to find children who need similar resources!

Chris and his whole team were amazing !!!! They brought my 15 yr old daughter home safe after she had been missing for almost 2 weeks . I hired him on June 3rd 2024 and she was found on June 11th 2024!!! He saved my daughter’s life from a very dangerous situation. And he doesn’t stop once the job is done. He will continue to help even after your loved one is found to offer support and guidance to keep them safe . He is professional, kind, caring and talented at his job. He truly cares about people and it shows. He responds quickly and he goes above and beyond with his team to offer support an solutions. They get SH*T DONE. He is a huge asset to the community he serves. His team Arizona Missing Children’s Task Force are the best for the Job. A million times would recommend. Shout out to Leila and Anika who are rock stars , they are so genuine and knowledgeable and offer so much love and support !!! It’s amazing how they get the right people to listen !! Their many years of experience has proven that! Thank you Thank you thank you for bringing my Jaelyn home safe! You all Saved her life and mine ❤️💪🏻💯🙏🏻🥹

I wish I could share the same feedback as the other reviewers. However, after paying this guy $1000 to come by and sweep my home for bugs and hidden cameras, which was supposed to be today.. First, we discussed The appointment in advance and set it up for Saturday afternoon. But even after paying $1000 he had to confirm whether I wanted to do it this weekend or next weekend. Not very attentive to detail if you ask me. And then only three hours before he was supposed to arrive. He informed me that he had a family emergency to attend to and refunded my money. When I asked him if he wanted to reschedule, I got no response. Indicating this was a personal reason why he did not want to do the job. Not very professional at all As we changed our entire day to make ourselves available for the appointment this afternoon. Not professional at all.

Chris was a light on my darkest day! He called me as soon as he heard my daughters and nieces were missing after a camping trip gone wrong. He sprung into action quickly. He is dedicated to helping find missing people and does so with his whole heart. ❤️
