Testimonials

Our Client Reviews

“As one of the first people I met when I joined the Orlando, Inc. (Chamber of Commerce) team, Oliver has proven himself invaluable – both in the performance of his job as an investigator and his ability to help others become more successful. His positive attitude, integrity, constant thirst for knowledge, and expertise in a broad range of subjects, make Oliver a business contact and friend that anyone is lucky to have.”

“I wanted to share this note with you and your team regarding your recent operation. You and your team’s persistence acquired evidence needed to reveal and defend against secret plans with another man to move my young kids away from their father. Besides several other trips to visit him in remote parts of the nation, the subject returned to Orlando again, and you ultimately caught clear video evidence we needed. These individuals have been engaged in adultery for over 9 months, including a weekend in Orlando while the kids and I were at my father’s funeral. Your professional help delivered. Please give my thanks and gratitude to your team for really bringing this home in the last critical hours.”

I researched and sought out a licensed, experienced, and highly professional security and investigation agency in Florida. I needed to rapidly obtain solid results to protect myself financially, to provide for my security, and to possibly prevent and protect a loved one from criminal activity. My quick but extensive research lead me to Ollie at AVPE. I telephoned him in the afternoon, and he was out collecting evidence on my behalf that evening. He was able to confirm the information I had and give me the peace of mind I needed. AVPE did a great service to help me and saved my marriage!

“I approached Ollie at AVPE to provide covert video surveillance in a child custody case. Within two days of my contacting AVPE, on the very first day of work, Ollie captured conclusive video evidence of the subject working (when the latter maintained in court that he was not employed). This was important to the case and valuable to our legal team. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend AVPE for anyone’s investigative needs!”

“Oliver and the team at AVPE are a benchmark for discretion & professionalism and have supreme competence in the field of private investigation. The investigator that was assigned to our [my] case was experienced and attentive to our [my] needs, and we [I] always knew we [I] could pick up the phone and get a hold of them or Oliver and his management team at all times. When EVERYTHING is on the line, things need to be done right the first time; AVPE needs to be your first call.”
