We begin every case by taking the time to listen to the prospective customers' situation, ensuring we fully understand their situation and needs.

We then discuss how we can best assist with an affordable, results-oriented plan of action. Please feel free to speak with one of our Licensed Arizona Private Investigators to discuss the most effective and affordable approach for your case.

Kathy was very quick to respond to our initial inquiry as well as being professional and efficient in quickly starting on our case. She was pleasant to work with and provided us with a wealth of helpful information that confirmed the location of our missing daughter. I would highly recommend Urban Spy

Kathy and Jason were very helpful and straight forward. My pup was mauled by a neighbor's dog and he owners have refused to pay damages. Urban Spy was empathetic and responsive. Unfortunately, getting the homeowners to do the right thing was going to be futile. Very frustrating, but I appreciate they didn't want to waste even more of my money. They were gracious enough to do a bit of research for me, which I appreciate. Don't hesitate to call this dynamic duo should you find yourself in need of a PI. Ethical and hard working people who I'd feel confident hiring should the need present in the future.

I highly recommend Urban Spy. From the very beginning, they were professional, discreet, responsive, and incredibly thorough. I was dealing with a difficult and personal situation and needed answers, not assumptions. They handled everything with professionalism and gave me the information I needed to make informed decisions.

Communication was excellent throughout the process, and I always felt that my concerns were taken seriously. The work was thorough, timely, and exactly what I needed.

Hiring a
private investigator is not something I ever expected to have to do, but I am very grateful I chose Urban Spy. They gave me clarity during a difficult time, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who needs a professional, discreet, and trustworthy investigator.
