Hired on Thumbtack

My experience with Guardian Investigations was far better than I could have ever hoped for. I had a defendant I believed would be extremely difficult to serve in a timely manner as she is known to hide from anyone she suspects is "out to get her." I anticipated many attempts and even the possibility that a stake out might be necessary in order to accomplish service. Much to my amazement, Peter managed to serve the defendant on his very first try. I was stunned and extremely relieved that it was done so quickly. Peter Barranco was very responsive to my needs. He provided a quote for his services promptly. He met with me at the time we agreed to meet and was right on time. His fee was very reasonable, especially in light of the difficulties I anticipated he would encounter accomplishing service on this defendant. I was more than happy to pay him for his services. Peter was professional and understanding and did everything he said he would do. Plus, he's just a nice guy - very easy to talk to. I would highly recommend Peter Barranco and Guardian Investigations to anyone in need of his services. Thanks, Peter!! Stephanie

Peter was wonderful. We became frustrated with the sheriff departments slow attempts at serving a restraining order and decided to hire Peter. He was professional, timely, and very persistent. He had it served within a few days and immediately went and filed it down at the courthouse. Would highly recommend him and use him again if needed in the future.
