After 10 years of marriage I learned that my husband was having an affair with another woman. But the information didn’t just fall out of the sky into my lap. It was a slow and painful process of dealing with suspicions and doubts for almost a year before I was certain that he was seeing the other woman. There were many little “clues” along the way and I was never able to get enough information to prove my case. So I just kept quiet and never confronted him with my suspicions. I lived in a near constant state of depression and began to think that it was all just my imagination.

  My best friend talked me into hiring a private investigator in order to either prove or disprove my suspicions so I could put it to rest and get on with my life. I met with an investigator with Byrd, Stillinger & Associates and told him everything I knew or suspected. I was treated with the utmost respect and professionalism and hired them on the spot. My husband was going out of town on business that weekend. As it turned out, he never left town at all. The investigators videotaped him meeting the other woman at a local shopping center where she got in the car with him. From there they went to a local motel where they stayed the night.

  Byrd, Stillinger & Associates documented every move and was able to gather all the information I needed to prove my case. I have been divorced almost a year now and I have my life back. After being confronted with the evidence, my husband didn’t bother to contest the divorce. I hate that my marriage failed. But I hate even more that I lived in misery so long before hiring a professional. I strongly encourage anyone who feels betrayed by their spouse to talk to Byrd, Stillinger & Associates. They were there for me and gave me my life back. While the evidence they provided me certainly wasn’t pretty, it was the truth. And the truth was far better than living with all the lies.

As a local Columbia, SC attorney I have used the services of Byrd, Stillinger & Associates many times. Their investigative skills have proven invaluable in getting the evidence I need to assist my clients. They are professionals in every respect and have always performed as expected. I have used them in both civil and criminal cases and know that I can always count on them for the really tough investigations. They have an impressive array of investigative tools at their disposal such as covert cameras, surveillance vehicles, GPS trackers, and bug detection equipment. I would strongly recommend Byrd, Stillinger & Associates to anyone who needs the services of a private investigator. I’ve tried other agencies and I do know the difference.

Byrd, Stillinger & Associates assisted me in a very important case. The investigator, Elizabeth Cook, was professional, reliable and ethical. I felt that she was interested in the case and could also look at things from a lawyer's perspective as well as an investigator's.
