Mike is the best of the best. I have hung with him during a stakeout. Clever and tenacious means money well spent. He gets his guy, or gal.

I recently had a situation with a fraud purchase at our dealership, and was having trouble locating the person. I contacted Spencer Investigations to discuss the situation, and see what they could offer to help. Mike was very professional while talking on the phone, and once hired, and placing a retainer he started working on the case immediately. Mike kept in close contact with findings, and provided updates regularly. Fortunate for us the person was arrested with in a couple of days of hiring Spencer Investigations. I contacted Mike to let him know, and was issued a refund of the retainer that was not used the next day. I can not recommend them enough. Very satisfied and will contact with any PI work we may need in the future!!! More...

I did not actually get service from Spencer however I did inquire. The fact that he got back to me right away and was honest in explaining why he wouldn't take my case was worth 5 stars to me. My case was a car theft and he couldn't do anything that I myself or the police could do and he didn't want to take my money. I really appreciated that! He did give me some great tips on things I could do myself. I have no doubt that if you have a real case he would be your guy! More...

PI Mike/Spencer Investigations is a reliable and sound Private Investigation Service. My family hired him to do some work investigated Rental Fraud and he was able to source some key information that helped us in court. Prior to knowing Mike professionally I knew him as a teammate and friend. I have nothing but respect and good things to say about him. If you are looking for someone to listen to your story and find the information or evidence you need, look no further than Spencer Investigations. More...

This is a review for my co - worker as she does not have a yelp account here are her thoughts on her experience :After months of researching I was trying to find my biological father and coming up with very little. I found  Mike and within 48 hours he was able to answer all of my questions. His service was very fair priced and my siblings and I are able to find peace with the results. Thank you Mike, More...

Unfortunately, I was in need of a private investigator. I was trying to find someone that was incredibly hard to find and I emailed Mike with all the details. Mike called me back within the hour.Mike was upfront and direct with me, while he wasn't able to take on my case. He was able to help me and provide information about the person I was looking for which lead me to find them on the same day. I can't thank Mike enough for helping me. I was trying to play private investigator and trying to find the person myself, I was able to piece together bits and pieces of information with my own detective work (My Google-Fu is very strong too). But, Mike was able to provide me more information in 1 hour then I was able to gather in 2-3 days. Save your time, reach out to Mike to help out with your investigative work. If I ever need a PI again, Mike will be the first person I call. More...

I just made a call to Spencer Investigations at 8:30 pm on a Tuesday evening, Mike Spencer answered the phone and after hearing what my situation was said I would be best served to contact a Debt recovery service. He took the time to listen to me and find me the contact info...I really had no clue where to start. Thanks Mike for your honesty, I really appreciate it.A. Frank More...

Mike was fantastic. We are out of the area and had a possible elder abuse issue with a relative. Mike was easy to work with, gave us great advice, and quickly was able to supply background information on the "help". He was prompt, professional and experienced. I would recommend Spencer Investigations without hesitation. More...

Hands down, no question at all, one of the best P.I.'s in the business today, he has the ability, the knowledge and certainly the education and I wont discuss the 20 plus years of experience. Smart P.I.'s have to be cautious not to be put in the cross hairs of clients with 'issues'. This is an incredible business, with more pits to fall into than jumping from tall buildings with holding an umbrella.  It worked great for Julie Andrews, not so much in the world that Mr. Spencer sloshes through. And besides, the name, 'Spencer for Hire'......it just works, just not for everyone. More...

Mike Spencer is an excellent private investigator. I am a lawyer and I hired him in a case to interview witnesses in the Bay Area. He was thorough and prompt, which helped me and my client, especially since I am in Fresno.That case ultimately went to trial in the Bay Area and his work was critical in our victory.What I also appreciated with Mike Spencer is that there were no surprises in his invoices. I have practiced law over 20 years and have hired many private investigators. If you think lawyers nickel and dime clients to death, lawyers are nothing compared to some private investigators! So I was pleasantly pleased with Mike's invoices and reports.If you need an investigator in the Bay Area, call Mike Spencer first! More...

I have contacted Spencer Investigations and used their services a couple of times over the past two years. I have always been satisfied with their results. The information provided was accurate and timely. No doubt, Spencer services  prevented a close family member from being victimized financially. I know I can always count on Mike when I need investigative services. More...

I had the pleasure to seek services from Mr. Spencer and his partner Mr. Elrod in early 2010. A woman was of financial threat to me because of her possibly false and fraudulent records presented to me for a business agreement. Spencer and Elrod were professionals in which they tracked down valuable information and presented to me only the facts relevant to the business agreement (as mentioned in other reviews, they have to be careful when a man needs info of a woman). They proved her to be a fraud, and recommended me to cut the agreement as soon as possible. Unfortunately because of my own stupidity, I decided not to follow their recommendation at the time.However, a year later I was able to clear my head and cut all ties using what I learned from their services. I am forever thankful for their hard work and professionalism. More...

I went to Mike for some help on a personal matter which I felt he did a great job. He was very professional and always kept me updated with any new information in regards to my case. He put in a lot of effort and was very accomodating with the hours that I requested for him to work on my case. I appreciate Mike and all his hard work and dedication. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a Private Investigator and if I ever need him in the future, he will be the first to call. Thanks again Mike! More...

Mike is as good as it gets.  I know how difficult it was to track this person down to serve her with papers.  She moved and covered her tracks.  He asked the right questions, offered advice and was easy to work with.  I'd recommend him to anyone who needs P.I. work or process serving done.  He's a plain truth kind of guy and that's what I was looking for.  Didn't want to be snowed or exaggerated to. Thanks, Mike.  If I ever need P.I. help again, I'll be calling you and so will my friends. More...

Spencer PI came through again.  He was able to track down some information which saved me a lot of money.In response to Diane M's review: Mr Spencer and staff are more concerned about getting the job done than massaging your ego.  They will tell you the truth, whether you like it or not.  To me, those are the "people skills" you want from a PI More...
