Reviews Summary

The reputation of Tri State Detective Agency, as derived from recent reviews, exhibits a bifurcated perspective among its clientele. While some customers report appreciable levels of professionalism, promptness, and satisfactory outcomes, a significant segment of the feedback reveals critical concerns that impair the agency's reputation. Recurring commendations emphasize the agency's responsiveness and the results produced in certain instances, with Mr. Nixon being specifically identified as providing a high quality of care and timely updates on cases. Contrarily, prominent critical reviews raise issues of contractual default, lack of follow-through, and allegations of fraudulent practices. A striking concern is the unfulfilled obligation to deliver official reports after payment, despite the investigation's supposed conclusion. Additionally, there are claims of Tri State Detective Agency providing substandard service, with conduct un reflective of professional promise and expertise advertised. A single customer complaint may be an outlier, but the recurrence of dissatisfaction across multiple reviews suggests a deeper, systemic issue likely to affect future clientele considerations.

I signed a contract with Detective Nixon and Tri State Detective Agency in November 2021 to hire them for PI services for a complicated court case I was part of. I paid $2500 upfront. To my knowledge, only one day of work was completed, as I only received pictures from the first day of the investigation. He was responsive when I texted him and very polite but he NEVER gave me my official report, regardless of my numerous written requests for it. He continued to tell me the investigation was still underway, several months after the job was supposed to be done. It is now August 2022, 8 months since I hired him. The report Tri State was legally obligated to provide me under the terms of their own contract is now obsolete and unusable and Detective Nixon stopped responding to my texts and calls after I requested a refund. Perhaps other people have had or will have better luck here. But in my experience, I would hire a more reputable investigator known for their professionalism and tangible results.

Honest review here!!! I hired these guys hoping to get someone "professional" and someone thorough at what I hired them for. He told me the job will take an hour but that wasn't the case. He was in and out, he doesn't really care to providing you a good service that he promises in his website. I read the bad reviews on this guy and they were true! Yes he responds in minutes when it's about money. And yes he gives excuses and he will cancel on you when it's time to do his job, I didn't even think he'll show up. He shows up looking nothing like in his website. If you're in need of a reliable detective work, this is not your guy look somewhere else!! I even gave you a chance to get out this investigation if it was something too hard for you to handle. You told me you got me,but you came in and scanned anything you wanted,but not the fans...that's what I hired you for!!! Yikes....
