A-1 Detective Agency LLC: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Working with A-1 Detective Agency has been a wonderful experience. Darryl guided me into my new career with patience and dedication. He is very knowledgeable and a team player! I recommend A-1 Detective Agency!!!
Thanks, Ms. Hall it has been a pleasure working with your company.
Fantastic experience: I had a complex situation involving legal papers that needed to be served, and A-1 Detective Agency, LLC, exceeded my expectations! Despite the challenges, they were incredibly professional, communicative, and efficient. They kept me updated throughout the process, handled everything with discretion, and ensured that the service was completed successfully. Their attention to detail and persistence made what seemed like an impossible task much more manageable. I highly recommend them for anyone needing legal paper services—they know how to get the job done!
Thanks for your review

Vic, thanks for your review!
Fantastic experience: Darryl was fantastic to work with! I had an order of protection that I had been trying to get served for over a week, but the respondent was clearly avoiding service. I reached out to Darryl with only about 18 hours left until the deadline. He made an attempt a few hours later, but sure enough the respondent avoided service again. He called me and walked through our options, and he came up with a plan that would also limit my expenses if we needed to conduct surveillance. He was able to get the order of protection served with hours to spare! I can't recommend Darryl and A-1 highly enough. I had reached out to several others given the short timeframe but I knew within the first few minutes of talking to Darryl that he would be able to take care of it. Great service, great communication, truly a professional and an expert.
Thanks, Ms. Cox, I'm glad we were able to assist you with this deadline
Negative experience: BUYER BEWARE. Taking the professional, out of PI. Darryl will not follow up with me, answer my questions, or do any of the actual investigating work. I have asked for a follow up 8 times, with no response at all. Save your time, and $, go with someone more reputable than Darryl at A-1 detective agency. If no star was an option, I would have given Darryl and A-1 zero stars. Everything that Darryl told me he could do, he proved he could not do. False advertising, poor customer service, no follow up. When they need there $, A-1 emails you everyday until you pay them, for absolute horrible service. STAY AWAY!!!!!!
Mr. Stewart, I apologize that you were not happy with the services. You and your private attorneys were communicated with throughout the process. Additionally, you and your attorneys were provided with the affidavits of non-service for a defendant who did not reside at the multiple addresses that you provided.
Fantastic experience: Darryl was awesome!! 10/10 recommend for process serving!
Thank you for the review! We are glad to be of service!
Fantastic experience: I work for a law firm in central Wisconsin and needed to have someone served in Antioch Illinois. I reached out to A-1 and Darryl was responsive and communicated effectively. He found the person quickly and was very efficient. We will use A-1 for our service needs in the future and recommend them to our colleagues.
Thanks Julianne! We were happy to assist the law firm.
Fantastic experience: Very professional and polite. Service and fee was exactly as promised and I highly recommend this company
I'm greatly pleased that you were happy with our services.
Fantastic experience: I would give Darryl a million stars if I could. After years of searching with no luck, paying for database searches and everything else, I finally decided to hire a PI to find my mom that left when I was 4. Darryl found her in just a couple days with the information I provided and broke the news to me that she had already passed away very gently, especially when he didn’t have to. While this isn’t the news I was hoping for, the closure after all these years is worth it. Thank you, Darryl. I couldn’t have done this without your help.
Thanks for the review. I'm glad you have closure now!

Mr. Morrison, Thanks for your review!
Fantastic experience: Darryl was fantastic. He responded to my online inquiry promptly. Upon agreeing to work with each other, and getting documents over to him, he got to work. Within three minutes (no joke) of having all the documents and information, Darryl sent me a message stating he had an appointment set up to serve the paperwork the next day. The paperwork was served, invoice was paid and affidavit was provided in less than 24 hours. We will definitely use A-1 Detective any chance we get.
Thank you for your review, we understand that this matter required urgency.

Negative experience: I took a chance on this guy after reading his one review . It. appeared he was decent , however after his smooth talking to get my $1,400.00. he went missing in action . He's a lier , a thief and a schemer. Lucky I was charged the $1,400.00on my credit card and Dispute . STAY AWAY FROM A -1 DETECTIVE ,THE OWNER , MR. ELLIS IS NOTHING BUT A LIER !!
Mr. Williamson it is unfortunate that the surveillance did not yield the results you wished for, and we wish you the best.
Fantastic experience: I am very pleased with the services Mr. Ellis provides for me and my clients. He is reasonable, responsive, prompt, and gets results. I would recommend him both for service of process as well as for investigations.
Thanks for your review!
