I had assistance from Anna and Sam from Recover Agency, and they were just the absolute best! They were incredibly helpful and discreet with getting some sensitive information for me, and the level of professionalism and compassion is commendable. I would highly recommend them to anyone, and I’ll definitely be using Recover Agency again.

I can’t recommend this agency enough. Their work is professional, thorough and also compassionate. Communication was excellent. They are experienced and resourced and drew from various avenues in their work for me and went far over and above my expectations. I would highly recommend Recover Agency.

I’d been struggling with some personal matters and Recover’s charismatic and humanistic side has assisted me through the painful process of uncovering information that was detrimental to my character. Their professionalism, go-get-it attitude and empathy make them a world-class agency in their field. Thank you Anna and team for all your support!

Kamal

Business Consulting Client

Prior to consulting with Recover Agency a lawyer quoted me $10,000 and was very vague on his course of action. With Anna I was provided pertinent information in 1 day to take on my own accord, saving me thousands.

I consulted with Anna regarding interview/interrogation and she is extremely knowledgeable, easy to talk to, but aggressive, driven, and focused on getting results. Absolutely recommend her and Recover Agency.

Interview, Interrogation

I needed help with clarifying some information about someone and the DPA was very professional and thorough. I would highly recommend it. Everything is discreet from the interaction to the information requested. The report made me realize that I have a very honest partner.

Ariana

Anna James has personally worked with me on a very extensive and complicated case with great success. She is a very skilled and professional Private Investigator with a vast amount of knowledge. She uses new school methods using technology combined with old school boots on the ground methods to accomplish her goals of making cases successful. Anna and her agency are definitely going to make a very positive impact on the future of Private Investigation, as her skills, knowledge and professionalism are impeccable. I look forward to any future opportunity to work along side Anna and her agency and will highly recommend her without hesitation.

Anna is one of a kind, she’s witty, intelligent, and has an investigative prowess that will leave you wondering why you didn’t call her earlier… a breath of fresh air!

Brandon Bodnarchuk, BBI Investigations

Supervisor

Sam & Anna are an incredible team! They were able to get to the bottom of a past employee’s very dark background which saved my small business. I would give 10 stars if I could!

I had the privilege of working with Anna in regards to a pretty complex family matter. The level of professionalism, kindness, and compassion was what resonated immensely from my experience with her. She went above and beyond. I will forever be grateful for her services.

After decades of disappointment, Anna James came along, reawakened my hopes, created an investigation and engaged my community. The addition of Sam Marx has further elevated the media services I get from Anna and her agency. I couldn’t be more grateful.
