I reached out to "All Out Investigations and Security" for a personal matter and…read morePat, the owner, responded within minutes providing me with not only a very fair process server quote, but some free, creative ways how to obtain additional information that we needed. His advice was golden and we acted upon it. The date we needed to serve by became chaotic and we were behind schedule with getting Pat the information he needed to serve that day. He kept in contact with us all day and drove down last minute to our location- about 40 minutes away at 8 PM to do the job at the original quoted rate he provided a week ago. As a backup, we found 2 other companies who would do the process service for us last minute but they wanted between $600 and $800 based on the last minute notice and the 8 PM time. Not only did Pat serve the individual but he brought along another teammate to capture it on video! He also took some photos for us of the perimeter so we can get some additional intelligence. The video and the photos all were date and time stamped with the exact location and emailed to us to use in court. Other companies would charge an additional fee for this type of work! Overall, Pat is extremely honest and down to earth. He has a ton of experience and his work shows for it! I wouldn't hesitate to use his company again and highly recommend. Thank you, Pat and team!!!!

When pressed for information, he gave only broad, non-specific answers that were of no help whatsoever.

So I asked him how old is the machine is, and he replied "Why does it matter how old it is?" I explained that polygraph machines have progressively improved dramatically over the years since the "old fashioned pen and needle" models, to which he replied "What's the big deal?". I abruptly ended the phone conversation and continued my search for a reputable polygraph examiner who welcomes such questions and answers them in a respectful manner.

Beth worked closely with me to ensure she was attempting service within the specific criteria laid out by housing law for my scenario and handled everything with professionalism and expediency. She served those papers like a boss! I highly recommend Beth for anyone in need of a process server. The photos and data she provides for each attempt are invaluable records for a court case.

I cannot forget how honest and kind he was. You do not meet people like Ash anymore. I told him I loved the renovations he had done. Looks great spacious and a lot of new products to choose from.

Ash said to bring it down and that we'd see what we could do. My Honda CR-V wouldn't open; both key fobs had stopped working (despite battery changes) and even the valet key wouldn't turn the lock. Luckily, one fob managed to work one last time. I drove to Advance, where Ash tested both fobs and confirmed they were dead (which I already knew). He quickly found the correct replacement model. Meanwhile, one of the old fobs kept sending the "lock" signal, so by the time we walked to the parking lot to program the new fob, the door was locked again. Ash quickly grabbed his door-opening tools and got it open. The total cost was about half of what Honda would have charged.
