"I want to write this to your agency in an effort to share my eternal gratitude. I already shared how much turmoil I was going through in my life at the time my husband filed for divorce. It was pure evil how he pounced on me like prey in the wild. You and your partners did amazing things and I thank you. If anyone reads this, please know that I had a particularly messy divorce. Not only did the agents know how to pull information from my computer, they then used that information to learn how much of a dumpster my ex-husband truly is. They used the information to track down some investments that he made and were able to help my lawyer obtain a sizable settlement that my lawyer said would not be possible without you guys!"
