Martinelli Investigations Review

Would give negative stars if it was possible. I called because on the site it says free consultations, but the lady that answered the phone was super rude and told me I'd have to come in for a quote with such sass. I told her if her customer service was better I would and she had the nerve to text me saying don't call her back. as if I'd ever pay to encounter her stinky attitude... Save it! Lady

Robin Martinelli and the whole team at Martinelli Investigations, Inc. has gone above and beyond in my case to help me get custody of my child! I was nervous and skeptical after having a bad experience with another P.I. and Robin saved the day. She was completely transparent, we met at her office in downtown lawrenceville right by the courthouse, and for only $99 consultation, she started to give me information to help me with my case instantly. She attended court dates, got picture and video evidence, and provided me and my attorney with professional private investigative notebooks for court. If you're unsure about hiring a P.I. just get a consultation with Martinelli Investigations today.

Thank you for your promptness in taking care of serving a defendant in one of my client's cases.

Fighting for custody with a crazy ex can be rattling for anyone. Hiring Robin and her team was the best thing I ever did. They were there for me from the beginning and were the main reason I won my case. My children and I cannot than them enough!!! They provide professional and personal service, even attending all court hearings along the way!!! They care and are passionate about what is right and just, even when it feels like no one else does. I would recommend their services to anyone who needs the real truth to be brought to light. Top notch!!

Martinelli Investigations is a reliable company. When you need answers and you have no where else to turn, Robin Martinelli and her staff are dependable and get the job done. Knowledge, passion, and determination makes this company live up their excellent standards.

My family really needed extra support in handling a very important criminal case. Not only was Robin and her team professional they were deeply concerned about justice! My family was hit a disturbing, blow, and although our legal representation was rated the Best , when your family member is charged serious accusations that will destroy their life and ultimately your life, it is PARAMOUNT to have all hands on deck! Robin and her team of professionals, jumped in tenaciously digging deeper into all parts of our case. Thinking outside the box is an understatement, uncovering things to assist our case put hope into a reality ! Martinelli Investigations, Robin and her Team provides valid, tangible, evidence the police fail to find or perhaps overlooked. I am most thankful for Robin and personal hand in reuniting my family! Priceless! Martinelli Investigation, Inc. , coupled with my legal team and my faith in my creator is why I sleep well tonight and more to come. Thank you forever Robin of Martinelli Investigator Inc.

I call Robin for all my private investigative and process server needs. This case I had just recently involved a war veteran that was also a quadriplegic. He was injured after an incident that occurred at his apartment complex. The incident involved a default in the apartment complex's compliance with safety regulations. Robin helped me to serve 40 witness subpoenas in a time frame of 7 days and take pictures at the scene of the incident and around the complex. She also interviewed and convinced three key witnesses, a police officer and two teachers to come and give their testimony. Her private investigation and due diligence of getting everyone served in a timely manner resulted in a huge win for my client and my firm, with a settlement of 4.3 million! After interviewing the jury on the decision, it was revealed that the testimony of the three key witnesses was the deciding factor that was in favor of the plaintiff, my client. I will continue to use Martinelli Investigations for all my court and trial prep.

I am very please with the great job on handling my situation so quickly. BRAVO! WELLDONE! Keep up the A-W-E-S-O-M-E WORK. I will refer your company to my family, friends and others.

Robin Martinelli is a con artist. She kept asking for more money after I explained I could not continue to give her money. She refused to give me any of her findings and then she sent a bill with detailed information to the person I asked her to investigate. I gave her several thousand dollars and received nothing from her.

I practically begged for a follow up. The reviews are true. Read them and RUN. You agree to one amount and they will try to charge you double. I paid $3,000 and never even received the paperwork nor a follow up. Not to mention, I was very specific about my budget and she tried to charge me over $2,000 extra for something I didn t even ask for. Today, I m receiving packages being sent to my parents and to an old business I had. Your meeting is not confidential. Also, there are things in the contract that are not completed. Biggest waste of money ever.

Sweet caring lady. Very concerned and helpful so far. Hopefully I get the answers I need. She actually gave me the information at no charge and no appointment was made. She s very honest and upfront about what she ll be able to do, just don t come sideways at her thinking finances won t be involved. Thanks Mrs.Martinelli

Terrible experience and would NOT recommend! They promised to deliver proof in the form of pictures, video and audio of the target subject. I never received anything. All I had was a meeting where they told me what they saw.There was no proof. I could handle the limited deliverables and chalk it up to experience. However it got worse than simply not getting what I was promised - they charged my credit card without my authorization which I am now having to dispute. The contract I signed said they could not go over the retainer amount without my prior approval. After telling me their investigation was complete, they told me they went over the retainer amount anyway. I told them I would not pay the extra but a few days later they charged my credit card without my knowledge. This company is not ethical. Stay away!

Thank you Robin and everyone at Martinelli investigations. So professional from the beginning of our ordeal all the way through the end. And we loved Rebbecca she was such a great help as well. We recommend!

My gut tells me I can t trust this lady. One point for picking up the phone late at night, though. Thanks, but no thanks.

Martinelli investigations has been extremely helpful in a difficult case. They are professional and highly qualified. When first contacting Robin Martinelli, she was at my house within ten minutes. She and her staff continue to work on my case-

I was very specific about our budget. Robin assured me they would not exceed that. She charged my credit card $5000 over our oral agreement. When I complained to my attorney, he stated that he doe's not use her any more. He said she use to be a great investigator years ago. Go right up to the door and get information. Now she does a poor job. She also had the gall to ask for more money and she did not do a good job. In fact, her investigators very likely lost our case in court. She will charge you an exorbitant amount of money and not do a proper job.

Mrs. Martinelli and her team are the absolute best. Thank you for finding out the information at such a timely fashion.

The sublet lawyer was my Garner Law a pleasant reconciliation in a abnormal situation

Always answers, always produces! My child custody case would be nothing without Martinelli Investigation! I have amazing proof, and have an awesome experience.

Went above and beyond for what I needed very professional and helped me out a lot I highly recommend.

Robin Martinelli and her staff have been amazing to work with. They have assisted us in finding a missing child. Our family will be forever grateful for all of her determination and loving support. Thanks to Martinelli Investigations our family is complete again.

Ms. Martinelli won a hotly contested custody battle for my client. She gives a beautiful impressive presentation to any courtroom. She is well spoken, knows the law and uses the latest and best technology. She is worth every penny you pay.

Run, don't walk away from this very, very dishonest & unscrupulous person Robin Martinelli. of Martinelli Investigations, Inc. who without my knowledge or consent charged my credit card twice for a total of $15,000 over the course of a couple of days back in late 2017. Yes, you read that correctly! I even saw her the days she did this & she made no mention what so ever of this. None. Zero. Zilch. I only learned when the bill arrived the next month & it took 3 months of dealing with the credit card company to finally relieve me of these bogus charges. And this $15,000 was after I had agreed & previously paid her company $10,000 which she told my wife would most likely cover her total expenses. She did very little to earn the $10,000, much less another $15,000. Please do yourself a favor and never, ever use Robin Martinelli. I pray this prevents others from being screwed & only regret that I didn't think until now to search & review such an unscrupulous person, company. Now a response to Robin Martinelli's response: I keep badgering you!!! Your dishonesty is unbelievable! After you took $15,000.00 from me via my credit card, I was informed by them I had to reach out to ask you for a refund which I did with an e-mail. You responded saying you would call me & I responded saying do it via e-mail. This is the only time I have reached out to your company. I was very, very, busy trying to get my $15,000.00 back from my credit card company that you took without my knowledge or consent! You better believe I was in contact a whole lot with them. I finally got the bright idea to do a review a few months ago to let others know how you operate. Please don't waste your prayers on me. Pray for the poor people that you have taken & most likely will take advantage of in the future. Better yet, pray for yourself because you are a dishonest, unscrupulous person.

Awesome JOB!! Worked very hard to help get my case settled.

Thanks to Martinelli investigations my court case won in my favor. No questions asked that weren't justifiable. Price point right on target. Would highly recommend. Thanks again.

Robin & her staff were professional and prepared even though it was a same day appointment. They answered questions I didn t know I had. More importantly they care... they know they aren t giving you GOOD news but they do it professionally

"Her attitude was so nasty on the phone I decided to cancel my service with her. She acted like she was annoyed with me when I said hello.I felt embarrassed for her to have a business with a good reputation and treat customers who are only trying to get help is bad."

Could not agree more!!!! I'm going through a divorce and just wanted to sweep my car(and possibly my home) for tracking/recording devices. She barely let me finish a sentence and then very rudely told me she wasn't going to do that. Funny thing is when I talked to another company, I mentioned that the first one l spoke to was very ugly, and she asked if it was Martinelli. I laughed and asked how she knew. She said she hears it all the time!!

She was very rude and unprofessional. Do Not waste your time and money

That is so untrue. I have my cleared/cancelled checks to this business. I also have their information package .

Just awful... please research thoroughly and ask lots of questions before signing anything.

Robin martinelli helped me with the truth and helped fix my situation she is professional and very good at what she does I highly recommend her

She is the absolute best in the business! Thank you so much for doing a job well done!

Mrs. Robin is the best in town. You want something done her team is the best option. Not only does she get the job done, but she such a kind and lovely woman. I am glad my friend recommended her to me. I just want to say thank you Mrs. Robin for everything you have done for me. You have made my life easier, and found out crucial information that I needed for my case. Thank you so much ma am again! I will definitely use you for any future problems that I run into.

Her attitude was so nasty on the phone I decided to cancel my service with her. She acted like she was annoyed with me when I said hello.I felt embarrassed for her to have a business with a good reputation and treat customers who are only trying to get help is bad.

Late, unprofessional and vindictive. If you have a budget of $1500, expect for her to increase your price to $5,500. Read the reviews, pay attention to them and don't waste your time.

I am extremely grateful for everything Robin and her team did for me. I Googled private investigator and Martinelli was the top hit that came up and I'm glad I went with them. Overall I'm satisfied and strongly recommend their services to anyone.

HORRIBLE! RUDE! UNPROFESSIONAL!! Here is your best advice-see all the negative reviews.....just look at Robins nastiness in the response back because it speaks for itself about her! I wish I had read the reviews before I met with her, it would have answered a lot for me!

Quick response to request. Very nice to be able to speak with person vs. automated answering system. Would highly recommend. Known Robin for many years and she is very professional.

Ms. Robin s team is the most professional and discrete investigative service I ve ever dealt with. Saved me a ton of money and time dealing with the legal system.

WoW!!!! I wanted to find out some information about someone and it was 5 minutes and they called me back with the information...INCREDIBLE!!!!!

Robin and her team are the best in the business. If you want a team to work hard for you and get results, hire them! They helped me get to the bottom of a very difficult situation and they did it in record time.

Excellent work here! I would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for this type of service.

DO NOT USE THIS PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR! Google the company name and add the word reviews. If that doesn't open your eyes then nothing will. Private investigators are a dime a dozen. Robin is a liar. She's nothing more than a salesperson with no interest in helping you. At first she acts 100% in your corner but rest assured she is not. When she presents you with a contract don't sign it. It'll cost you thousands more than it looks like. Buyer beware. Move on. As another Google user said RUN FAR AWAY.

Horrible! Just horrible! Make sure you have everything in writing even with speaking to Erin!

our experience with Martinelli Investigations was great! They came out and spoke to our group and really inspired us. It was so interesting as students to learn about what we can do at a young age to make a difference. Mrs. Martinelli and her associates were quite impressive and very cordial and fun to listen to. We are truly inspired. Thank you for doing such a great job in the community!

Robin is the Best !! She is very passionate about my concerns and family. She personally explained things to me. And because of her Expertise and background with Police force she was able to uncover information needed for my case. Also, she worked with my budget, and gave me a discount. They have the best technology, all the videos and photos were extremely clear. I want to thank every one on her team. Great customer service just a great experience for me and family. I highly recommend Robin to any one , but Especially to loving fathers who are trying to fight for there children !!! Again thanks Robin!!!

As a former private investigator who also worked for Martinelli as well
as other firms, I can tell you that the industry and nature of the work
is extremely subjective. As in any business, you will not always be
able to satisfy some clients. What I do know is that Ms. Martinelli
has a strong work ethic, is passionate about her field and getting the
job done. Sometimes it involves stepping on some toes, but I have never
witnessed her giving up to get the information she needs. I have been
a good friend of hers since she started in the industry and I promise
she never wants to disappoint. Because the fieldwork of an investigation
is labor-intensive, an investigator can often come across very assertive.
However, that is what it takes to complete an investigation. And sometimes the client will be displeased with the result. Nature of the beast. I can tell you that Ms. Martinelli has a heart of gold and steel.
Reviews are also subjective based on the reviewer and you really do not
know which side of an investigation the reviewer falls on; offense or
defense. Retainers and extra charges are consistent with attorneys,
marketing consultants, an the like. It is not an exact science of
what an investigation can cost; some are more labor-intensive than
others, and road blocks which need to be navigated can increase the
the charges. Investigators, just as any law enforcement and first responder, sees and witnesses the worst of the worst, so you build the walls up to keep yourself going. It is not an easy profession and I ask you please take my comments into consideration. I have known this professional for over 20+ years and have always admired her tenacity in building her business from the ground up!

Mrs. Martinelli has been amazing!!! We were having fits. It had been months and we got absolutely no help from anybody. My sister found this company strictly out of luck and they have been a Godsend

Martinelli Investigations is a superb private investigating business. Contact Robin and her staff for all your investigative needs. You will not be disappointed.

I reached out to ask about locating my birth father, from the moment the women answered the phone she was rude to me and during our short conversation she actually said "well you can't afford me" so had no knowledge of my financial situation but she made an assumption about me!

It's always good to see her and doing business with her. She is good at what she does. Always recommend her service to people I know. She get the results.

Very professional, nice and expertly executes her job. She saved my family a lot of time and heart ache. Would highly highly recommend. Thank you!!!!

This lady is shark and not in a good way. At first she makes you feel like you're a valued client and she's ready to do whatever to help you. But after she's got your life signed away in her ludicrous contracts, she then goes in for the kill. She charged me for things I didn't approve, showed up in court without prior approval(then charged me for it), and had the nerve to act as if nothing was wrong. She's a liar and a horrible business person. I give businesses credit for the work that they do and this lady gets no credit from me. Please do yourself a favor research more and find a private investigator with ethics.

Excellent service, Professional, She helped me with everything.

Horrible attitude even with the first conversation! Money is not an issue but you should treat people with respect and not think you are better then them. Thought I could finally find my sister but this women brought my hopes so far down. Probably an awesome investigator but attitude and empathy is a big factor for me. Have a nice day because I know i won't!

I didn't always agree with Robin but she persisted and was instrumental in a good outcome for our case. Results are what matters!

I called Martinelli Investigations when I wanted to start searching for my birth parents and Robin asked me to send her an email stating exactly what I wanted with all the information I had and stated that if she couldn't find any information she wouldn't charge me! I send in my request and she got back to me with real results in minutes! It wasn't insanely expensive and I got in contact with my birth parents right away. Thank You Robin!

This office is truly the best. More professional and compassion then I could have asked for. I gained true friends through the roughest times in my life.

Wow where do I even begin?? Last year my family encountered a tragedy where my son was taken by his mother and never received communication again! In disbelief and unaware of how to proceed with this situation I looked and looked to see who would be able to help my family and I! It was like a cry for help to anyone that would take my story and actually do something about it, the blessing came when I finally met with robin and her team! As soon as I met with robin on the first encounter the ball started moving, the faith started to kick in, the actually belief that I may actually see my beautiful son again actually started to set in! Months and months and months went by where robin and her team worked their butt off to even get a glimpse of where my little boy could be until finally July 2017 came around and they had found him in Arizona! Not only did robin find him but she also hopped on a plane with me and spent multiple days out of town with me in desperation to get Kayden my son back into our arms! With the resilience and non stop effort by her we managed to finally get Peoria police department and Maricopa county courts to give us what we needed to obtain my son! As I sit here and write this tears start to fall down my face but not tears of sadness, actual tears of joy that I can finally be a part of his life like I dreamed of since the day he was taken! Without the service of robin Martinelli and her team my son and I wouldn't be sitting here next to each other living the beautiful life that we are!! I have the upmost respect for her and her team and I recommend that anyone that is going through anything in life that they don't know where to turn please please contact her team! Thank you guys for everything you have done for us my family and I greatly appreciate it!!!!!!

Dealing with Robin Martinelli was one of the worst experiences of my life. Endless unkept promises, deceptions & huge overcharges. Massive overcharges in violation of both written & verbal contracts. The most unprofessional services that could be imagined. The only thing that was outstanding was her shameless self promotion & high pressure sales tactics. Her & her teen age daughter got to live it up on $20,000.00+ of our hard earned money. She failed to refund any of her blatent over charges when given written notice. We found that virually nothing she said could be believed. Buyer beware & hang on to your wallet if you turn to Martinelli Investigations for help.

Robin and her team were instrumental in helping me win custody of my 2 children! Words cannot express how grateful I am. I would recommend Martinelli Investigations to any and everyone fighting for custody.

I called this company with questions regarding an issue I have. I was met with the rudest women, she would not listen to what I was trying to ask. I believe all the bad reviews I have read. Please contact onthemarkinvestigating as he was super helpful and informative. I wanted to pay him for his time with me and he refused, and gave additional outlets for info. Please do not use Martinelli....garbage

My sister's husband had been seeing other women on the side and despite my attempts to prove this to my sister, she refused to believe me. Their relationship was abusive but she wouldn't get out of it. I had to help her so I called Martinelli Investigations and explained my situation. They were incredibly helpful and when I went for a consultation, they showed gave me a background check. It turns out he's abused other women as well. Once I retained them, they continually sent updates and evidence of all the women he's cheating on my sister with. Thank god for Robin because now they're divorced, he's in jail, and my sister is healthy and happy.

My attorney used the investigator in my case and he was great. He came to court and testified on behalf of my defense based on statements that he took from witnesses in my case and I am sure that he was totally instrumental in helping my attorney win my case. This company is well worth the fees which by the way were very reasonable. Definitely had an accomplished and and competent investigator. I hope to never be in a position again in which I would need his services but if I were I would hire them in a heart beat. Best ever.

THEY TOLD ME 7500 TO FIND MY MISSING BROTHER, HUNG UP ON ME, CALLED ME BACK TOLD ME THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHO I WAS AND NOT TO CALL THEM EVER AGAIN, UNBELIEVABLE THAT A BUSINESS EVEN EXIST LIKE THIS TO HELP PEOPLE THAT ARE MISSING FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS. I WILL NEVER CONTACT YOU AGAIN MRS MARTINELLI

Very caring and dedicated office staff. Robin, thanks for everything you accomplished.

WARNING - Total scam. Be very careful. Do NOT sign their contract unless you have an attorney read over it on your behalf. This company prey on distressed women. You'd think a woman owned PI company would be more sympathetic towards women, it's the exact opposite. She is a fast talker and scam artist that found a legal way to be a snake. This company over charges and trumps up charges. They even padded my file with charges that had nothing to do with me. If you are considering this company. RUN FAR AWAY
