We don’t own a red Ferrari, and we rarely wear Hawaiian shirts on the job (it’s bad for the “stealth” part of surveillance). What we do provide is a suite of professional investigative services rooted in years of court-appointed experience and a deep understanding of the legal landscape.
Discrete Surveillance
The “Professional Car-Sitting” Special. Whether it’s a domestic matter, an insurance claim, or a suspicious “injured” employee, we provide the eyes and ears you can’t. We specialize in the 90% of the job that isn’t in the movies: sitting under a Magnolia tree for twelve hours to get that thirty seconds of high-definition truth.
- What you get: Time-stamped video/photo evidence and a log so detailed it’ll tell you what the target had for lunch.
Legal Genealogy & Deep-Dive Research
The Digital Hunt. Ashley spent years as an “Officer of the Court,” and he knows that the best evidence isn’t always found on a street corner—it’s found in a dusty archive or a hidden digital trail. We dig through records, social media, and databases to build a factual map of a person’s history.
- What you get: Comprehensive background reports that go light-years beyond a $19 “People Search” website.
Skip Tracing & Locating
World-Class Hide-and-Seek. People are remarkably good at disappearing when they owe money or have a court date. Luckily, we’re better at finding them. Drawing on Ashley’s history of “resetting” lives in Atlanta and trucking across the Panhandle, we know the spots where people try to blend in.
- What you get: A current address, a place of employment, or a definitive “here they are.”
Notary Services
You know what’s harder than tracking a skip in a Panama City Beach rainstorm? Finding a notary who is actually at their desk when you need one.
I’ve spent my life in “reset” mode—from the driver’s seat of a semi, and now behind the lens as a Private Investigator. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that life doesn’t happen on a bank manager’s schedule. That’s why I took my Notary Commission and put it on wheels.
As a Mobile Notary Public, I bring the stamp to you—whether that’s your kitchen table, your law office, or the tailgate of a truck. You don’t have to fight traffic or wait in a lobby for someone to finish their lunch break. I show up, I verify the facts (it’s a habit from the PI side of the house), and we get your paperwork legalized so you can get back to your life.
Whether it’s a real estate closing, a power of attorney, or a sworn statement that needs that official seal, I handle it with the same professional “straight-talk” that defines A.E. Wright Investigations. It’s not flashy, and it’s certainly not Magnum P.I., but it is efficient, legal, and done right the first time.
The “PI Counselor” Consult
Deciphering the Facts. Sometimes you don’t even know what you’re looking for yet; you just know something is off. We sit down with you, look at the crumbs of information you have, and help you decide if an investigation is even worth your money. We’d rather lose a client than take a case that leads nowhere.

The truth doesn’t always go down easy, but it’s always better than the “not knowing.” If you’re in Bay County, Walton County, or the surrounding areas, let’s talk.
