Martin Investigative Service did a fast and very complete job for me. I was impressed. Tom called twice and was very personable and professional. Even though I was 2 thousand miles away I felt as though I was in his office. I will definitely use this company again if there is need!!!

Martin Investigative Services provided me with excellent service! I wish I could give them 10 stars! The team is professional and provided me with accurate information in less that 3 hours. I have tried other "investigators" without success. I will only use Martin from now on. Thank you for all of your hard work!

I used Mr. Martin to assist with the investigation of a residential burglary. He was prompt, courteous and professional. He offered a consultation at no cost which was quite helpful. I highly recommend Martin Investigative Services

I have worked with several private investigators in my life - one about 20 years ago - for a family matter and recently, with Thomas G. Martin. The investigator from my past was not very professional and it was not a great experience. To the contrary I was very impressed with Thomas Martin who I met at his Newport, CA office, and felt confident when discussing working together regarding corporate theft. He is a true veteran in an industry that is racked with imposters. Trained by the FBI, it is clear that Martin knows his stuff. I also spent quite a bit of time on his website and was very impressed with the Case videos, and also his past news media coverage. His manner is engaging, and he made me believe that his company not only has the best people, but also the latest tools and the experience required to do any investigative job the right way and get results. I would highly recommend Thomas Martin - especially when it comes to employee theft, which could probably save companies a lot of money if they hired him just to be trained as to what to watch out for!

I recently had a situation that required the services of a private investigator. I asked my friends who was best and the name Thomas Martin kept popping up. After meeting with Thomas, I was impressed by his no-nonsense approach and the clarity with which he described the process. Most importantly, the situation is now resolved and Thomas played a big part in the successful conclusion to things. He did exactly what he said he would be able to do, in the time-frame he said it would take and for the amount we agreed upon. In this day and age, that is a rarity.

We have been using Tom Martin and his company for over 5 years now. They do all of our employee background checks. They have very quick turn-around time and the work is always professional and complete. If we ever need further assistance or clarification on something, his staff is always happy to help. I recommend Tom to others on a regular basis.

When I found out I had been scammed out of a good chunk of money I immediately took to the web in search for a private investigator to assist me with my case. After calling 5 agencies I came across Martin Investigative Services. When I called I spoke with help representative that was more interested in helping me solve my problems then up selling me on how amazing he is at his job. Actually is what the opposite. He told me that I was probably not a good fit for them based on the info I was sharing, but he said you know what let me run this past a few of the guys in the office and let me see what we can do. A few hours later I received a call from the owner Thomas Martin. He told me that he was going to try and help me out if he could. We both knew it was a long shot, but it was worth taking the chance. Several hours later I received a call from Thomas notifying me that they had found the individual I was looking for. I can't tell you how relieved I was to get the news. I know they worked extra hard on my case and probably did way more work than what they charged me. But I asked Thomas if I could write a review for him and his company. They are just great people and I wish everyone I did business with ran their company like Thomas runs his Keep up the great work guys.. Adam A.

Mr. Martin is a consummate professional. The whole package, refers other professionals where needed, doesn't up-sell what a client doesn't need. Truly first rate.

Martin Investigative Services is where to go when discretion and results are a must. All of the agents are experts in their field, whether that's tracking down a missing person or runaway, doing surveillance or a bug sweep or assisting law enforcement with a serious crime (just a few of their specialities). The owner, Tom Martin, is a distinguished former DEA agent who is always available to his clients. He only hires other former federal agents. All go above and beyond, plus they offer a free consultation and money back guarantee. Top notch reliable HELP for life's difficult situations.

In a corporate setting, utilizing the services of a high-quality investigative agency is often a very important element of an ongoing security program. They can help to identify, interrogate, and resolve issues with employees, customers, or vendors who are contributing to the misappropriation of resources whether it be the company's time, money, or inventory. Tom Martin and his team of experienced investigators are very well qualified to serve as an external resource to help corporations deal with these issues in a discreet and professional manner and bring them to a satisfactory resolution.

Martin Investigative Services completed a search for a long lost relative of ours. As a family, we just wanted to know whether that individual was still alive and where they could be. They had disappeared many years ago and we were just looking for peace of mind, which Tom and his staff provided. What impressed me the most was how quickly and diligently they worked. Outstanding customer service.

Leighton Day

They helped me immediately and made sure I got every piece of information relevant. I'll be using them again for sure.

Dawn Thompson

Our business, and family, have used Tom Martin and Martin Investigative services for over 20 years. His services have been invaluable to gathering intelligence information that has led to the prevention/cessation of corporate, as well as personal, criminal and tortuous civil actions of others. The experience of Tom Martin, and his team, is evident as soon as you begin to discuss your case with him. He is able to ask the right questions, and plan ten (10) steps ahead. True intelligence such as this will give you peace of mind. Tom and his team are highly recommended by our group of companies.

Lou Lopez

I decided to search for someone from my distant past and had very little solid info on that persons whereabouts, in fact, I wasn't sure if that person was still alive. I called Martin Investigative Services and left a message with my interests. Within minutes I received a call from the President of the firm via his cell phone and an hour later I received a brief e-mail guiding me on the path forward. I took their next step and within the next five hours (a total of six hours from my initial inquiry) I had a complete report on that person containing data that I doubt I could have acquired from the numerous person search products that are on the net. This outfit was professional, prompt and comprehensive so I am most willing to provide my endorsement of their services.

I contacted this business privately months ago looking for a serious private investigator service . I was told they only conduct business in southern california. I found that odd for a private investigation firm? Anyhow I had to look elsewhere. Seems like they have false advertising?

Thomas and his team are the best in the business. Thomas also has a wonderfully informative website as well as books that can be purchased online.

Rick Cole

Wow! What great service! I requested the information I needed to find a family member that I had never met. I have been looking for this person for over a year. Within 1 hour all the contact info was e-mailed to me about this family member. I waited until the next day to try to contact them. The first phone number I called the person I was looking for answered my call! The first thing the family member said was how did you get this number? I had tried all those online services that claim they have special information but all I ever got were more old number and dead ends. What I needed was the personal service of Martin Investigations. I talked with him on his personal cell phone and he was ready to answer my questions. I was able to have dinner with this family member that night and they brought family photos of my biological Father whom I had never met that had since passed away. I am in the process of building a relationship with this family member that I had never met and I am confident I have made a new friend! Thanks Thomas Martin!

Garrett Peck

My siblings and I were separated from our father since 1980 during a bitter divorce. We have been searching for him on and off for years to no avail. Martin Investigative Services opened this door for us to finally be reunited with our father. The last time I was with him and reunion photos are attached! A++++++

Valerie Mellema

Martin Investigative Services is the most thorough people search service I have found. They take the time to do a proper search and do their best to help you find answers to your questions. Martin PI was able to put to rest a long time family mystery and we are very happy with their service.

After going to 2 average experiences with other Investigating Services, I came across Tom Martin. While we were having our first meeting, I knew things were different with him and they way he and his company works. There is a great deal of professionalism, priceless experiences and knowledge and an understanding of the depth of my situation. The guidance and wisdom I received has been excellent. I feel I have a person who will be straight with me, honest, and offer the correct options. Tom is a breath of fresh air for this industry. I am grateful and appreciative of Martin Investigative Services and will continue to use them as required.

Dave Larson

I live in the Bay Area of California. I needed assistance to ascertain whether a concerned relative's home in Southern California had been electronically penetrated or bugged. I spoke with several in house corporate security officers that I have worked with in the past and they all had Martin Investigative Services as their first choice.I called and talked with Tom Martin. He suggested an electronic sweep of the home and was very thorough about what it would and wouldn't accomplish. He was great to work with, keeping me and my relative up to speed on progress. His team was courteous, reassuring and efficient. I highly recommend Tom and his team.

Janice Clark

Tom Martin Investigative Services came recommended by a friend who experienced a sensitive, high profile divorce here in Orange County, Ca. The expertise and intuitive nature of Tom and his team has been invaluable in assisting me, from installing a new home security system to legal team recommendations. Tom’s wisdom and experience in the field has been most helpful in navigating the treacherous waters of divorce, especially in the hotbed of OC. Working with him is a true pleasure and has enabled me to feel safe, secure and well connected to the top legal resources in the country.

Shawn Feinblum

We have been using Tom and the Martin Investigative Team for years at our company. The team has always been able to provide us with the information we need in a very timely manner. Using Tom really helps our business operate in a more efficient and safe manner. Thank you to Tom and his team for always being there. We would highly recommend using Tom.

I called the team at Martin PI to see if they could help me find someone I’d lost contact with years ago. They asked me a few questions and 24 hours later I had the information I was looking for. Great job! I’d definitely use them again.

Floyd Plymale

Martin Investigative Services is a top notch company. I called them on a Saturday night, and received a return call within 12 hours on Sunday morning. They were able to move on my request within 2 hours of the phone call and gather information as needed. Thomas Martin, never made it about the money, he actually went out of his way to try to save me money versus spend extra like most people. 5 stars to these guys, Trustworthy, Honest and not into raking up the hours for their benefit but doing what's right for their customer/clients first.
