We engaged VTPI in our investigation and we found them to be professional in their approach and also sensitive and responsive to our needs along the way. The issue was concluded successfully thanks to their assistance. We would highly recommend their service.

VTPrivateye is my go-to investigative firm. Susan Randall and her team are quick, responsive, and thorough, but more significantly, they are attuned to social and personal nuances and the complexities of all varieties of humans. I trust them to conduct meetings and interviews with people in the most sophisticated and sensitive manner. They never let us down! And if you need a film-- a day in the life film for a lawsuit, for example--Susan and her collaborating film directors can create a compelling visual narrative.
