This is the first time I've ever reviewed someone but I had to give them a great review because they were so quick and efficient in terms of helping my grandmother! The owner is wonderful and so is James!

After waiting 7 weeks for the police to serve papers, which never were severed. I hired H.I Pacific Investigators to serve papers to a resident in HI. I was reluctant at first, then decided to sign a contract. I was treated very well and the service was quick. I am impressed how smoothly everything went. I contacted a few other private investigators and their prices were very high, that probably explains my hesitancy. Ethan was reasonably priced, Is a pleasure to speak with and I wonder does he every sleep. I am located in the United States, even with the time difference he was always available for a quick response.

I needed assistance collecting information for personal affairs. I was able to get in touch with someone quickly. The process was smooth and efficient. I received the information I was looking for, and Ethan (the owner), was able to go above and beyond in getting even more than what I originally thought I needed. I was surprised at how reasonable the price was with the degree of information received. Very professional.
