• "We cannot thank Paul Read enough for his advice. We were pursing an individual for non payment of an invoice for a considerable sum via our local solicitor. This individual was extremely efficient at giving us, our solicitor and process server the run around using different names and other clever avoiding tactics for many months. Eventually we were passed on to Paul Read with the intention of employing him to track down and prove the true identity of this individual. We supplied Paul with the little information we knew to that point. After a brief look at this information Paul, using his extensive experience and knowledge, gave us some sound advice which we acted on. This advice continued late into the evening by phone and text, for which we are extremely grateful, nothing was too much trouble. We were able to prove the identity of this person on the same day we received Paul’s advice! We have now received payment in full from the individual we were pursuing. Absolutely fantastic service, truly dedicated to supporting us as a small business with an extremely positive and reassuring manner. Thank you so much Paul. "

• " Paul Read has been assisting me with an extremely complex crime, that happened to me whilst I was abroad. He has been amazing. He has not only offered me a First Class Service, with his wealth of knowledge and expertise in investigative work, he has shown me a nothing too much trouble attitude in helping me pursue this criminal, something which I find quite rare these days. His investigative work has helped me trace a person (in less than 7 days) who I had been searching for the past 18 months, managing to give me an exact location and a background of this individuals movements in the past 18 months too. He has given me expert advice in assisting me in dealing with the police overseas, building my case and supplying evidence. His attention to detail and prompt responses to my emails and questions has no doubt helped me pursue my case abroad faster than I would have been able to alone, when all other UK channels failed me. He has been tremendously supportive and innovative in thinking out the box to give me a positive approach to pursue this case, when most would have given up! He has shown true dedication to my case, especially when I thought all was lost, and I cannot recommend this true gentleman enough, we need more people like this in this world. I would be more than happy to speak to anyone personally should you be thinking of hiring Paul, please ask Paul and I will be more than happy to speak to you. "
