Testimonials

Five black stars.

Dedrea Fazzio, Senior Investigator with Merit Professional Investigations is an exceptionally professional Process Server. Her communication is consistently smooth, and I was amazed at how quickly she responded, often on the same day. What sets Dedrea apart is her dedication to going above and beyond the typical process service. She doesn't merely deliver the documents; she conducts thorough background checks on the parties involved, initiates different strategies, adjusting both time and location to ensure successful Service of Process. She patiently explained, crucial processes to someone like me who had no prior experience with law suits. In the end, she efficiently provided us with the Affidavit necessary for court filing which proved essential for our successful judgment. Our victory in the lawsuit owes a significant debt to Dedrea's contributions. Highly recommended!

She took the time to answer all of my questions, and most importantly GOT THE JOB DONE. She served an evasive individual at a speed that I didn't think was possible. Everything was well documented and the communication was seamless. I would highly recommend Merit Professional Investigations for Process Serving in this region. The owner, Dedrea Fazzio is a true professional and incredible in her line of work.

Trained field investigators meet the following state eligibility requirements: Must be at least 18 years of age, be a citizen of the United States, undergo background check/ fingerprinting, and must have completed a state required 70-hour basic training course by the Board.

  • What is the cost of an investigation?

    Factors influencing the cost are the duration of the investigation, the quantity of field investigators required, the technology deployed, the location and the type of case. MPI assures our clients that after a diligent assessment of your case, we implement a precise, strategic and targeted surveillance plan with the most cost-effective approach. After you’ve discussed your case with us, MPI offers a Retainer Agreement with Terms of Service, so that you can be confident that there are no surprise charges. MPI values transparency and communication throughout the investigation and our clients are well informed.

  • How often will I be updated during the investigation?

    MPI understands client’s need to be informed of investigative activities. MPI provides daily updates that may be more frequent for the benefit of the case.

  • Is my personal information and sensitive information in the case kept confidential?

    Yes, all personal information and case details are treated with absolute confidentiality and security.

  • At the end of the investigation, will a court ready report be available for my Attorney?

    Yes, MPI refunds any unused portion of the Retainer.

  • When MPI hires investigators, are individuals with prior Law Enforcement backgrounds given hiring preference?

    While law enforcement backgrounds are a positive benefit, private investigations require different skill assets. While law enforcement training is centered around criminal identification, arrest and prosecution, private investigations involve a broad range of personal and civil case investigations that require specialized skills to gather, analyze and report evidence, oftentimes in a covert manner. MPI welcomes talent from varying ages and backgrounds since most covert operations have at the crux the ability to blend in with the environment.
