Patrick, Brian and the whole team at Ohio security and investigation really came through for me. I was at a loss on how to handle a breakup and kept hearing about how my ex had been cheating and using me the entire time. I got the team started and within 2 weeks they had found a pattern of abusive manipulative behaviors from multiple ex girlfriends. Lying cheating and stealing were a game for him. This whole team took me under their wing and made sure I was safe as they planned and executed the retrieval of my items. I will be forever grateful for my life back.

Hired to handle service in Ohio. Did what they said they would when they said they would. Communicated when there were difficulties locating the people to be served. I felt like they actually cared about doing a good job, not just doing a job. Would definitely use them again.
