John Brylski details his services and rates as follows: I will only charge for 4 hours of work / investigating per day even if I work longer on a case that day. Why? Because I don’t depend on this income for the survival of my wife and myself, but I’m not doing it for free, either. I can focus on your case with no financial pressure to myself and give your case the respect and attention it deserves. My satisfaction is to help my clients in need, and, at the same time, give a better life to my wife who deserves it. Missing person cases have a different fee structure; please see below. Retainer Fees. For those designated to have retainer fees, payment to obtain my services, the hourly per hour commences when I start working/investigating.

Rates: Retainer fee varies; I will let you know the fee after you explain the circumstances. “You want the best. I am the best.” $50/hour. Missing Persons (Dead or Alive), Heirs, & Runaways This is one of my specialties. If you want someone found, I will find them or find out what happened to them. No matter the reason, I will look for them. Typical cases include: • Runaways/missing persons under 18 years of age, after first reporting to local law enforcement agency unless there are serious mitigating reasons not to. Children who leave home freely risk becoming entangled in illegal behavior or exploitation, such as trafficking, child pornography, or working with pedophile enablers. According to studies, 85% of the victimized children remain missing when exploitation occurs. • Parental abductions • Stranger abductions • Non Family. These cases can involve a family, nanny, friend, or neighbor. • Vulnerable adults over 18, for unknown reasons, such as temporary / mental illness / severe stress that could result in death or suicide. • Missing children or adults, most likely missing and endangered from any geographical location (examples include cities /country such on water or forests). Rates: Retainer fee $1,000 for all cases; the rest is based off of a contingency fee. Below are the fees depending on time and the length the person is missing. • For people who go missing for less than 6 months, if I find the person, the cost will be $3,000 • More than 6 months but less than 1 year will be $5,000 • 1 year to 5 years is $15,000 • 5 years to 10 years is $25,000 • Over 10 years is $30,000 There is no time limit for me concerning these cases as I will continue to work on them for as long as they are gone, return home or I or my client determines their loved one is safe or, for whatever reason, the adult wishes not to return home as it is not illegal for an adult to disappear as long as they are not a danger to themselves or others and there's no evidence of criminal activity. This does not include those under the age of 18 years old who do not have the right to run away / go missing unless emancipated, which is an exception. I will do my best, through assistance from you and law enforcement, to have them returned to you or a legitimate agency who is responsible for both treating your child as well as not allowing them to leave whenever they like until either you or the courts determine they can be released to you. For the situations I just discussed, I will charge on the basis of my scale above from 6 months or less up to over 10 years or more. If the reward is higher, as some missing persons have for their loved ones, I will only charge for the cases I have explained above. Also, unlike law enforcement, I will update you with everything I have done to find your loved one(s) and you can also come with me when I leave my office to locate your loved one(s) if you wish. If my investigation of your case, passed onto law enforcement, directly leads to your loved one’s location, alive or deceased, or if my investigation determines criminal circumstances that leads to the suspect(s) arrest by law enforcement with or without locating your deceased loved one, I will charge my above fees depending again on the time they are missing. Nursing Home Investigations I will conduct background checks on facilities and staff, conduct surveillance, and gather evidence to uncover potential abuse, neglect, or exploitation, ultimately helping families ensure their loved one’s safety and well-being. Rates: Retainer fee $350. $100/hour. Open Records Requests (Assistance & Tutoring) No matter how difficult, such as on open cases, my knowledge of both criminal laws and civil rules and litigation will provide invaluable insight to you.

With standard service, attempts are made in 7 days of receipt of documents. Rush & same day service available. Rates: Retainer fee $95 including up to 3 searches. If requires more searches, $30 for each search after the third search. If I determine after my third search that it is no longer feasible based on my experience, I will let you know so you can decide if you want to keep paying me to attempt to serve your documents. $0.75/mile rate for jobs outside of standard service area. Process service is only offered in Northern Wisconsin (from Wausau northward). Records Searches I will access and compile information from public records like criminal records, property records, and court documents, to gather information for background checks or investigations.
