A friend called me one Sunday. She asked if I could help locate a missing family member. I had no idea how to do that, and not enough time had passed to file a true "missing person" report with the police. When in doubt, hire a professional. I found Scott online and spoke with him on the family's behalf. He replaced the situation's stress with a methodical process and insight. Scott asked thoughtful discovery questions to orient his search, then got started. It took less than 10 minutes. As you can imagine, this wasn't an awesome time for that family. Scott's work...on a Sunday...delivered aid, comfort, and results. The missing family member was found in less than 90 minutes. There's an old saying that it's not enough to do your best...you have to know what to do, and then do your best. In this situation, and I'm sure others like it, Scott knew what to do. If you ever need the services of a private investigator, I highly recommend Scott and his firm. We were lucky to find them, they were excellent in every way.read more

I was recently involved in a scam. Scott was being super helpful and supportive. He offered professional analysis and solutions. He also gave me directions to collect evidence, guide me through the whole process. What is the most important, I can feel he is very dedicated and he really cares. Because of his help, I have so much more hope to get my loss back or bring the scammer to justice.read more

I contacted Mr. Filley for assistance after a recent crime and strongly recommend that others looking for a private investigator do the same. Throughout the entire process, he kept me updated regularly and remained in constant communication. The service he provided was comprehensive and went, quite honestly, beyond my initial expectations. His knowledge base and range of experience came in handy for a client new to this sort of situation, and his persistence in pursuing contacts and then following up with me was greatly appreciated. I am thankful to have had his help during a difficult timeread more

Thanks to Scott we were able to track down our homeless son in a matter of days after our own attempts to find him had failed. Scott was honest, dedicated and persistent. He stayed within the budget we set for his services. He was able to arrange for our son to be served with legal papers once he had been located. He facilitated our contact with a local social service agency who had regular contact with our son so we should be able to find him again in the future. Can't say enough good things about Scott. We highly recommend him.read more

Way Lee and Eva were tremendous. I had a very unique and difficult problem in China that needed a skilled and knowledgeable person on the ground to collect reliable information and contact appropriate agencies including different police departments. I was in the US and could not help. With one trip and many follow-up phone calls, Eva kept control of the situation and guided a series of complex actions to achieve the result. A mother who was kidnapped and taken from her children in southern China was found in Inner Mongolia and reunited with her oldest daughter who had been looking for her for five years. Eva found her mother in less than three months from her first involvement.read more

You need to call Scott if you want an investigator who will take the time to speak with you, hear your concerns and provide you with individualized and personalized attention. After I called Scott, we had a long discussion about my case and developed a strategy on how to investigate it. Scott is friendly and skilled in his profession. I was most impressed with Scott's ability to strategize and come up with multiple different courses of action based on the information I provided him. During his investigation, Scott kept me updated and informed on everything that was happening throughout the course of the investigation and did not hesitate to reach out if he needed information from me. If you need a private investigator, I highly recommend Scott.read more

I had never hired a private investigator before I called Scott Filley. I live in another state and a friend had borrowed my RV and was not responding to my requests to return it after nearly 3 years. I felt like I had no other options than to enlist the help of a PI. And I'm so glad I contacted him. Upon receiving my call, Scott jumped into action immediately and drove to where we thought the RV was most recently located. He was incredibly thorough in his continued search to find the RV and/or find my friend. He enlisted the help of a sheriff's deputy to do some investigating. He drove all over Marin County looking for it. Finally, he sent some associates to make contact with my friend. It was that final act that resulted in the eventual return of the RV by my friend. I can't say enough positive things about Scott and his work. He attacked the problem from multiple angles, coming up with creative ways to locate the RV or my friend. He was persistent in his approach, not giving up when we reached a dead-end. And, in addition to his professional work approach, he was also respectful and kind, listening to my story with empathy. If you need someone with a successful track record who will devote time, energy, and creativity to help you solve your problem, I strongly suggest you give Scott a call.read more
