A Record-Breaking 2025: Expanding Our Reach to Better Serve You
Dear Valued Clients and Partners,
As we move into 2026, I want to take a moment to look back on what has been the most significant year in the history of EXCALIBUR Private Investigation.
Building on the momentum of 2024, I am proud to share that 2025 was a record-breaking year for our firm, topping 2024 by 35% growth. We handled a higher volume of complex cases than ever before, maintaining our commitment to the discreet, FBI-level precision that has become our hallmark. From high-stakes surveillance to intricate digital forensics, our team has continued to deliver the clarity and evidence our clients need to move forward with confidence.
New Horizons: We Are Now in Florida
Perhaps the most exciting milestone of the past year was the official opening of our new office in Gainesville, Florida. This expansion allows us to bring our elite investigative services to the Sunshine State, joining our established presence in South Carolina, Colorado, and New Mexico. With this new regional headquarters, we have enhanced our ability to handle multi-jurisdictional cases, providing seamless support for clients and law firms with interests across the Southeast and the Western United States.
At the Forefront of Technology
2025 also saw EXCALIBUR further integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) into our investigative workflows. By combining our decades of "boots-on-the-ground" experience with cutting-edge digital tools, we have significantly reduced turnaround times while increasing the depth of our investigations.
Our Promise for 2026
Whether you are an attorney seeking litigation support or an individual looking for the truth in a personal matter, our mission remains the same: There is no substitute for experience. We are honored by the trust you place in us, and we look forward to serving you with even greater resources and reach in the year ahead.
Thank you for being a part of our record-breaking journey.
Sincerely,
Lee Walters, President
