To Whom it May Concern:

     Please consider this a letter of recommendation for Mathew Blank of Blanket Investigations. Although I have only known Mr. Blank for a few months, my experience with Mr. Blank, on both professional and personal level, have been extremely gratifying.

     As an investigator for this office, Mr. Blank has carried out all of his assignments in a professional and expeditious manner. Mathew is a very thorough and competent investigator. His ability to review case documents, assess the issues that need to be addressed and follow through with comprehensive and detailed interviews of witness is exemplary. He has routinely produced comprehensive taped interviews, reports and assessments of case issues in a timely and professional manner.

     Mr. Blank recently completed an investigation for this office which was instrumental in securing an acquittal for a client charged with some very serious criminal activities. Had it not been for Matthew's extremely thorough investigation our client may have well been sentenced to many years in prison for crimes he did not commit.

     I can say, without reservation, that I have relied on Matthew Blank to conduct investigations for this office that far exceed the norm in this area and will continue to do so in the future. I continue to recommend Matthew Blank to anyone requiring the services of a competent and thorough licensed private investigator.

     Please do not hesitate to call if you would like to discuss Mr. Blank's qualifications.
