Jake Ross, Private Investigator

A Man Who Loves Challenges. Jake Ross is a Private Investigator -- a real Private Investigator. He's been observing -- and, admittedly, profiting from this private investigation explosion for a long time. He has distinguished himself with over 35 years of investigative experience in both public and private sectors. He is a Board Certified Criminal Defense Investigator and has worked more than 5,000 cases. Several of his most fascinating cases are described in this book. He and his agency have been retained to handle a constantly multiplying variety of cases, performing more complex services. His investigations run a gamut of criminal and civil cases from criminal defense to robbery, murder and VIP protection. He's independent, on his own. No political suffering from election anxieties peers over his shoulder. The private investigator can improvise, freewheel, and throw away the book. He can tread freely on toes without fear of banishment or loss of rank. Besides -- this is probably most important of all -- the private investigator knows that if he solves a case, his client will be lavish with gratitude, praise and money. Prior to opening his private investigative firm, Mr. Ross served in U.S. Army during the Vietnam Era, received an honorable discharge, returned home to become a police officer, and later served as a state attorney investigator. He holds a Master's degree in Criminal Justice and graduated cum laude from St. John's University. He obtained his B.S. degree in Criminology, graduated cum laude from Bethune-Cookman College. He has been honored numerous times for his professional and civic contributions, and was named "Investigator of the Year" in 2004 by the National Criminal Defense Council. His exciting new book, based on his actual case experience, reflects the high professional standards Mr. Ross has consistently exemplified."
