Description

Specialties

Paramount Investigative Services a private investigator service that has been serving clients in the Los Angeles area since 2004.

Contact us today for more information!

History

Established in 2004.

I opened Paramount Investigative Services when I realized the major companies I’d worked for didn’t seem to care about their cases. They were so focussed on billing that they didn’t care if the investigator had the skill set or equipment to perform. Sadly, I’ve seen major firms hire friends & family members with no experience or training to cover multimillion dollar surveillance investigations.

At Paramount Investigative Services we care about our clients and their cases. We do our best to get the results they need to bring their case files to a positive resolution.

I am known to «think outside of the box» to get the desired results needed to win your court case.

Meet the Business Owner

Ken C.

Business Owner

I have been in the investigative industry since 1999. Originally hired by one of the largest firms in California, I quickly rose to the top. I then expanded my horizons with small firms who not only specialized in insurance surveillance, they also took on criminal investigations. I was able to gain the experience in locating and interviewing witnesses and getting to the bottom of the suspected crimes. After approximately a year, I was sought out by other large insurance investigative firm where I continued my craft. It was at this time I was exhausted by these large firms who are obviously profit oriented Vs. results oriented. It was time to disassociate myself from these billing mills and open Paramount Investigative Services. Today Paramount specializes in all surveillance issues. We take classes and training courses with several associations to stay on top of industry trends. I am currently involved with the California Association of Licensed Investigators

Ken is a superb investigator and outstanding field tactician. A day ago, Ken took on an assignment that had been vexing my office for days (we’re investigators also), and within minutes of making phone contact with him (he was on I-​5 in the middle of California en route to Los Angeles), he agreed to take a detour into Bakersfield, where within less than an hour, he had wrapped up an assignment that, before Ken came along, promised to be a long, expensive siege. We in turn were able to present my client with the first good news she’d heard in weeks. Ken has a quick mind, a sharp eye, good instincts and the experience to make good decisions under pressure.

Ken does amazing work! I have a friend that just dropped off the face of the earth about 8 months ago. He stopped showing up to his job and he left all his things at his house wth his roommates. We tried asking other family members and the only bit of info we could find out was that he was alive. Ken was able to track him down and my friends and I were finally able to get closure. I would definitely utilize Ken’s services in the future.

I have been using Ken and his firm over the past year, and this is truly as good as it gets. He’s supported me with both investigative services, and testimony in court, both in California and in court as a witness in Texas. Nothing is a problem for Ken, only an opportunity to exceed your expectations. Professional, hard working, honest, exceptional value for what he gives you, I could go on an on. If you are looking for the best, go no further. I really think he sets the standard for investigative services.

I had a problem with my ex. She was trying to get more child support by claiming that the kids go to a babysitter. I decided to hire Ken to help me with this mater, and I was glad I did it. Ken is very professional and good at what he is doing. He found out everything what I needed. He always answered his phone. And he did exactly what he told me he will do. And what I liked the most, he didn’t try to hustle me for my money. He is a very honest guy who really tries his best to help you to find the truth. He is the best. I wouldn’t go to anyone else!

I can not say enough good things about this man! He has helped me through literally the hardest time in my life and with his advice and expertise knowledge I feel so confident! Ken has answered every call, text etc. no matter what! He takes you’re specific needs and does exactly what he says with the results you ask for. He genuinely cares about you as a whole! I never knew I would need to turn to a P. I but when I did it changed my life. Working with him has been an honor and it’ll probably be a while until he can get rid of me :) HIRE HIM you won’t regret it! Thank you for all that you do!

Ken was nothing short of amazing. The minute I called him he was on the job. He didn’t even wait a day. I needed him to start working immediately and he did and he followed through every step of the way. Ken is unbelievably professional and kind and listened to me and my ideas constantly. He is very proactive and he knows what he is doing. I have never worked with someone so reliable, informative, and helpful… especially during such a stressful time in my life. He will do anything to get you what you need. I cannot recommend him enough. The best in town. I would not waste my time going to anyone else!

Ken was absolutely fantastic. We had been trying to complete service through another PI firm for well over 2 months. He found the two parties and served them both within a week. He is doggedly determined and has the skill set and tools to get the job done and done fast and well. He was extremely kind and professional and made sure that both parties, us and those being served were treated with kindness and respect. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a PI’s services and will certainly hire him again should I need these services again. Thank you Ken.

I haven’t seen my 20 year old daughter since she was 1 year old. He father’s family made me sign papers in Mexico to give her up before they would let me return to California. I was young and naïve and I signed the papers. She has been living in Mexico, and I was here in California. After all of this time you helped my reunite with my daughter and this was her «dream come true». I have regained my daughter, a son-​in-​law, a grandchild, and one grandchild on the way! I can’t thank you enough. Ken, you rock! And I hope this review helps you in your endeavors. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU — from the bottom of my heart!

I believe this business is no longer in operation. If they are, you will need a private investigator to locate them. 4 phone calls and a drive to their stated location. No return call and the office space is for lease.

If you need the kind of help that requires a PI, this guy is the one you want. I found Ken to be personable, helpful, and empathic — which is a huge relief when you’re dealing with very personal sensitive matters.

Like the past reviews, I too had never used a PI before. I was very fortunate that I found Ken Childs on Unilocal because he really lived up to what others said about him. He was able to serve someone in less than 24 hours who had been unable to be located for at least five months prior. Ken gives his work 110% and seems to really care about his clients. His kind words and compassion made a very difficult situation easier.
If you are looking for a Private Investigator, I would highly recommend Ken Childs and his associates.

I never thought I’d have to use a PI service. However, I needed to have someone «served» and did not know where to begin, since the person that needed to be served did not have an established residence nor a stable job it would be almost impossible to track or get a hold of this person. Until I found Ken on Unilocal!I decided to give him a call, then I personally met with him.
Ken is a true professional! Not only does he work hard for his clients, but he actually cares about his clients and proves so by going the extra mile. Aside from his professional work ethic, he offers great advice and alternate solutions that make the impossible become possible.
If you want someone that’s dedicated to their profession and good at their job title description, Ken is your guy. No matter how difficult your situation may seem Ken will find a solution.

Wow. I’ve never had to call a private investigator before. I don’t know if I’ve watched too many Hollywood movies, but some part of me expected a fast talking sleaze ball with a cigar hanging out the side of his mouth to return my call.
But talking to Ken Childs was such a great experience. I immediately felt comfortable with him… (no fast talking sleaze ball here!) He listened to what information I had and though he doesn’t specialize in my kind of case, he took time to look up helpful information for me and advise me on what the best course of action was. He definitely pointed me in the right direction.
He’s extremely personable and is easy to have great rapport with. I have no patience for people who try to charm you or cajole you, but with Ken, he gave me the impression of just being friendly, sincere, straight forward, and a great guy to get to the bottom of whatever you want to know.

Ken Childs is the best of private investigators… as good as they get, as far as I’m concerned. He has always handled my casework professionally, discreetly, and yielded excellent results. I recommend him highly to anyone needing PI services – you won’t be disappointed.
