The power of having a good, experienced private investigator on your side can make all the difference! It is often helpful for my clients to hear about past cases that may be related to their situation. When appropriate (and, of course, leaving any specific persons who were involved completely anonymous) I often share cases with them that may help them know that their situation is never unique, and how we have turned problematic, difficult situations around for our clients to completely change their circumstances.
