Great work! Initially, I thought I could do the work myself but nope, he captured what I couldn't! He saved me from presenting the wrong information to court. Thank you!

I truly cannot say enough good things about Jon. He served as both my detective and process server, and after months of trying to handle this on my own with no idea of the defendants whereabouts, Jon stepped in, located him, and successfully completed service.What stood out most to me was how trustworthy and professional Jon is. I do not live in the state and had no way to have eyes on the situation, yet I felt completely confident that Jon would handle everything honestly and correctly without taking advantage of my circumstances. He was thorough, communicative, and extremely detail-oriented, making sure every step was done properly and by the book.Jon kept me informed throughout the process, double-checked paperwork, and followed through all the way to completion, including handling the affidavit so there were no loose ends. If you need someone you can genuinely trust to locate and serve an evasive individual, especially when youre not local, I highly recommend Jon. I would not hesitate to use him again if I ever found myself in a similar situation.

It’s been a while, but Rob and Jay really helped me by giving me tips and tools on how to manage my circumstance - first. This I appreciated!! Now, when I circle back with them (or anyone of my choosing), I am much more educated. This type of service is unmatched!

Black Spear Intelligence made tenant screening so much easier for me. They quickly found the information I needed, explained it clearly, and gave me peace of mind in choosing the right tenants. They are Professional, reliable, and very helpful for consultation with any questions you have Id definitely recommend them!

My wife was cheating and I knew it, but couldn’t prove it. I thought private detectives just followed people around but this group does everything. I ended up not only doing surveillance (following her) but also doing an asset search and cell phone forensics. I finally had proof of the hotel rooms, air bnbs, and gifts she was buying this guy and thanks to Black Spear I no longer have to pay that woman $3,400 a month alimony. Can’t thank y’all enough. I definitely recommend this company. I think I’m going to take them up on their background reports of people for the next person I choose to date because obviously I’m not a good judge of character. Ha I could definitely get addicted to all the cool behind the scenes things this company offers. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go enjoy my midlife crisis and buy a boat with all the alimony money I’m saving now!
