I needed help in locating my birth father. I had zero information about him, and other than submitting my DNA to a couple of registries, I had no place to start. My mother refused to give any information that would lead to the identity of my bio father and none of her living relatives were willing to help me with information that was accurate. I worked with Debra Allen in the past and knew her to be a top notch investigator with a lot of integrity. She was able to quickly sift through my DNA analysis and locate a few half sibling as well as my biological father. I can't even begin to describe what a weight was lifted from me after so many years. To find people who looked like me after growing up in a family where I did not look like anyone, and suspecting, but never being allowed to ask, or even wonder out loud if I had a different parent, was very freeing. I cannot thank you enough Debra!!! You completely changed my life and helped to answer so many questions! Her rates are very reasonable, she cares about her clients... just very compassionate, intuitive and professional. You won't find a sharper investigator. Thank you a million times Debra read more

My search for my 1/2 sister started 3 yrs ago. I had just completed my dna test through Ancestry and found an unknown close relative. After learning a bit on how the matches worked we deduced it was an unknown child from my Mother. We could not get any further with finding out who she was, and there was no opportunity to get more information other than the name through Ancestry. That is when we hired Debra Allen Investigations. My assigned researcher was Tamara, who did not give up until she had found my missing 1/2 sister. She was absolutely great, taking time to update me when I asked, and reaffirming often that she would not give up. The day I thought she was calling to say she was giving up, she told me she had found my sister. I could not believe it. We are just starting the communication process with her, but I am very hopeful it will turn out good. I really appreciate the dedication of Debra's Team, and especially Tamara to complete their search successfully. Thank you all! read more
