Executive Summary
Introduction
Specialist Protection & Investigation Agency (SPIA) was founded after more than a decade of experience in the NSW Police Force. My transition into the private sector was a deliberate move to establish a high-integrity capability delivering Elite, Discreet, and Lawfully executed protection and enforcement services traditionally unavailable outside government and law enforcement channels.
Why I founded SPIA
After leaving the force, I recognised the urgent need for a professional private agency that could offer the Discipline, Discretion, and Legal compliance of law enforcement without the administrative burden and operational constraints of government bureaucracy.
Specialist Protection & Investigation Agency (SPIA) was founded to serve:
I. Individuals that require close personal protection executed discreetly without public exposure.
II. Legal and corporate clients demanding covert, lawful, and evidence-based investigations.
III. Firms requiring face-to-face debt recovery or repossession done professionally and within the scope of NSW law.
Every agent at SPIA is recruited with intent, trained with purpose, and measured against the same principles I upheld during my service in law enforcement: Integrity, Operational Readiness, and Tactical Precision.
Yours Faithfully,
SH | Founder & Principal
