I called Jan with an urgent service request and she dropped everything to do the job within 2 hours of receiving the documents. She is personable, professional, knowledgeable and friendly, and appears to have a genuine concern for her clients. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Thank you, so glad I could successfully serve the court documents within such a tight time-frame. I understand how stressful it is for parents and grandparents when you suspect children may be whisked away to the far side of the country. I hope an amicable arrangement can be decreed by the judge and that those books I recommended are helpful to the family.

Jan was extremely professional and prompt. I would recommend her to family and friends. Very bubbly lady who you can see obviously enjoys her work. Jan travelled to Bullsbrook to serve Divorce papers and returned the signed documents the same afternoon without any issues. I wish you all the best Jan , we need more genuine people like yourself.

Approximate cost: $165

Thanks Julie, I think that might be a record: to collect the court papers from you, serve them, get the Affidavit witnessed in front of a Justice of the Peace, and return them to you in the space of about 6 hours. I'm sure everything else will go just as smoothly. All the best. Jan Ross, Managing Director.

From the moment I spoke to Jan on the phone and explained to her that I needed Court papers served on my husband, I felt she was committed.

Jan came out of her way to collect the documents from my home. Meeting her face to face was a pleasure and such a "down-to-earth" human being. Even though I made her aware it was not going to be an easy assignment, she was determined to do the job in the most professional manner.

Jan even had a genuine concern to ring and find out if I was okay after the documents were served. This act of concern touched me to the core.

Thank you Jan and may your business thrive for many more years to come and may you be a "life saver" to many more people who need your services.

Jan comes highly recommended by myself.

Approximate cost: $168

Thanks Sue, hopefully your husband will now co-operate with the judicial system so that you can both move forward.

I was involved in an industrial accident at work for a well-known company in Perth. I asked Jan Ross to urgently serve documents on two witnesses. The first was done the same day without a hitch. The second she was unable to serve because the man had No Fixed Abode and, when she went to serve him at his place of work, the management became obstructive and told her to leave the premises. When I saw her detailed report, I said it was "Perfect", because I feel sure that the Court will instantly draw an inference from the management’s attitude.

On the 19th of October, 2015, I sent an email to Jan at Pathfinder Investigations, asking her to help me find out the truth about whether or not my mother is actually my mother. After 48 years of conflicting information spoken by Mum (only since reading a book recommended by Jan; 'Healing from family riffs'). Do I now realise just how insidious many of the things Mum used to say, are.
Four yrs ago I stopped having anything to do with Mum, took me all those yrs to be able to break away from the mind games and abuse.
Jan suggested two options, we went with option a; getting a DNA sample from both parties - myself and mum, had no idea how to approach Mum, but told Jan I'd pray to God that He would guide her accordingly. And He did.
The day Jan had planned on approaching Mum, she was on another job that took her out of the city for the night. On her way back, she called in on Mum; explained who she was and why she was there. Mum complied with Jan's request and gave the sample.
Less than a week later we had the results; she is indeed my mother. For the 1st time in 48 yrs, I'm relaxed and happy, the test results removed an otherwise nasty game off the table and in turn, I got my power, back.
All in all, Jan's friendliness and straightforward manner is highly recommendable. Thank you again Jan for helping me find my peace. And congrats again on your up coming wedding.

Approximate cost: $499.

Thanks Fiona, the book "Healing From Family Rifts" available at 20% discount through our Info page is indeed a useful tool to help you come to terms with what's happened over the years, and more recently, and move forward. I wish you both the best of luck for the future.

Just an amazing service and so quick to get the information required. The information that Jan provided gave me great comfort and allowed me to relax and prepare for any situation that might arise . I cannot recommend Pathfinders investigation enough

Thank you. If I'm honest I thought this case was going to be easier than it was with the access to various subscription websites that we have, however, it's good to know that good old fashioned detective work still has it's place. I hope everything works out for you.

Jan was outstanding in her service. Extremely efficient and prompt. She made what is a difficult time that little bit easier. Further more Jan understands there's always 2 sides to every story

Hi Todd, yes I understand that family matters can be complicated and I endeavour to remain impartial. I hope everything gets sorted out as amicably as possible for all concerned.

We lost touch with our son about 11 years ago when he moved up north to work in the Pilbara. Last year we tried The Salvation Army Family Tracing Service, but they made no progress over 14 months, which was disappointing. We approached Jan at Pathfinder Investigations and asked if she could help us. In less than a month she found him alive and well and, through the advice she gave both to us and our son, we now have some hope that we can resume a relationship with him. We are so grateful to her for her expert help.

Hi Greg, I know how much making contact with your son means to you so I'm really glad I was able to help. Hopefully the book on our Info page "Healing From Family Rifts" will be useful to both parties. I wish you all the best of luck for the future.

Update 29/4/15: On the very day that this family reunited, a new addition was born.
Update 13/7/15: Greg nominated me for the People's Choice Award and said, "We are going from strength to strength with our son, he visits every week, and he's starting to connect with old friends he hasn't seen for 12 years. Thanks again - it would not have happened without you."

My daughter took her dog, Jack, with her when she emigrated to Australia. The relationship with her partner broke down and, when she became ill, we visited her and brought her back to the UK. Because things were done in a bit of a rush, we unfortunately had to leave Jack behind. At first her partner agreed to make the arrangements to return him, then changed his mind and moved house without giving us a forwarding address. At the recommendation of the Pet Travel Specialists, we engaged Jan at Pathfinder Investigations in Perth to help us find the partner. She was successful and, as a result of a trip down to Bunbury to appeal to the partner in person, he has now returned Jack to us safe and sound without the hassle and expense of going through the Courts. My daughter is over the moon because Jack will be landing on her birthday, so this will be a very very Happy Birthday for her this year! We cannot thank Jan enough and at very reasonable cost WE WOULD RECOMEND JAN TO ENYONE

Thanks Philip, it was a great pleasure to help you and your daughter. I had to leave my own dog in the UK when I migrated here, so I empathise with your daughter's situation and I'm really glad that I was able to make a difference.

Jan never needed to act on my call for help. She already was committed to a job that night.
I was DESPERATE and she heard that and said "bring your docs and I'll do all I can".
Jan was warm, friendly and efficient. My goodness she jumped straight onto the job.
Jan managed to do what no process server I sought/paid assistance for, could, and that was.... 3hrs after leaving her office I received a txt 'Docs served' AND he signed the papers.
The person I was trying to find she did in hours, and smoothly.
I was desperate as the matter involved my son and like most mums we are passionate and protective about our children.
She went above and beyond what she needed to. An answer to my prayers.
THANK YOU Jan

Thanks Grace, so glad I could help you with this family matter. We manage to serve documents the same day about 85-90% of the time and return the Affidavit of Service signed by a Justice of the Peace within one business day. Naturally, we can't give any guarantees because people may be away on holiday or actively try to avoid being served, but we do try our best to give good service and our actual success rate is 99%.
