Chuck Chambers has been a private investigator in Florida since 1982. Before that he was in the Manatee County Sheriffs department, and before that in the US Marine Corps...He brought those experiences to his work as an investigator, and now enjoys the fruit of his work. He is constantly quoted and searched out in the Sarasota-Bradenton area for his comments and expertise on the mysterious cases that pop up from time to time. His book is nothing less than a treasure trove of information, advice and exposition regarding just about every area of investigation. If you are thinking of hiring a PI, or have concerns about privacy or asset protection, this is the book for you. You could save thousands of dollars just by reading the book and following Mr. Chambers' advice.
