ABOUT US
Don C. Taylor Associates, LLC is a full service, licensed, bonded and insured private detective agency serving insurers, the legal community and public throughout New Jersey, eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware.
​
Our firm was founded in 1979 by Don C. Taylor, a former Equifax claims manager, who was joined in 1980 by Michael D. Dickey, a former Equifax claims supervisor. Our firm was begun to meet the needs of insurance claims adjusters and defense attorneys by providing individualized services, rather than a corporate-wide, one-size-fits-all business model.
​
We know that successfully representing clients requires understanding THEIR needs. Only then, can we use our training and extensive experience to deliver cutting-edge solutions. We recognize that each of our client's expectations may be diverse; therefore, we are always diligently focused on their objectives. Combining our expertise, responsiveness and energy, we can be partners in their success.
​
​Our service-driven approach to investigations is the foundation of our firm’s success and has fostered a reputation for excellence and client satisfaction.
