5.0 out of 5 stars Simply The Standard By Which All Others Are Measured..., December 4, 2004

By	Michael Beltz, FCI "truthsleuthpi" (Orlando, Florida United States) - See all my reviews

As a licensed private investigator and college instructor of private investigation courses, I can personally attest that the late Anthony M. Golec's work "Techniques Of Legal Investigation" is the standard by which all legal (civil) investigation texts are measured. The information in this text is absolutely timeless. If you can find it - but it!

This is simply the most informative and educational text of its kind. Even though civil litigation has evolved tremendously since the original publication of this text (1st Edition published in 1976), this work is only in its 3rd Edition! This is definitive evidence that this text is timeless!

The detailed and systematic approach that is given to each topic assists the reader greatly in clearly comprehending and understanding the issue in question. While it isn't a fun read (most informative books aren't), "Techniques Of Legal Investigation" is unbelievably educational and is, simply, the best of the best!

If you are interested in other texts regarding legal (civil) investigations, I would highly recommend (emphasis added) both "Complex Legal Investigations: The Ultimate Guide For Conducting Better Personal Injury Investigations" by James W. Harbert CLI, FCI (ISBN: 1891247557) and "Successful Personal Injury Investigation" by Francis D. "Frank" Ritter, CLI, CII (ISBN: 0970635109). With all three (3) of the aforementioned texts, your legal (civil) investigations library will be complete.

As always, check with your local library or bookstore to see if you can read/review this or any title before deciding to make a purchase. This method has effectively allowed me to make the most of my investigative library budget.

I hope you found this review helpful. [...]
