Let's see, where do I begin? I've been a P.I. for 49+ years in So CA. I have worked with a lot of P.I.'s over the years. Scott is the consummate professional; I'd partner with him ANY day. I was having trouble with another P.I. in No CA whose staff was not thinking on their feet (robots). I found Scott through my Professional P.I. Assn. He quickly returned my call, he quickly "caught" my need and he immediately jumped on the need and was the thinker in his feet. I've had bad experiences with former Law Enforcement who become P.I.'s; Scott is born a P.I. thinker. This case may not be done yet, so I am looking forward to partnering with him again, if it is not. Even so, I look forward to another opportunity to have Scott assist/handle work for/with me. He "gets it".

If you need help, you should always go to a real professional. After flailing around on a project where I could not find someone, I contacted Scott and explained what I needed. In an amazingly short time, he had solved what I had not been able to accomplish for many months and he did so in such a helpful way. He was easy to talk to, easy to work with and I would give the highest possible mark for his effectiveness.
