About Us
Corning Investigative Services was started in 2005 by Fred Peters and Mike Gustina as a full service private investigations and security business. Since that time the business has grown quite a bit, and C.I.S. currently has 42 members.
As police officers, we enjoyed full careers that exposed us to local, state and federal investigations. Numerous cases, some considered somewhat high profile, were managed by us in our roles as a City of Corning police investigator and a NY State police investigator.
After retirement we thought a need might exist for a private company with a fresh look at private investigations and security. As calls for service increased we found that our numerous professional contacts through the years provided skilled and respected retired and current police officers from many jurisdictions in and outside of New York State. Each of these men and women we know personally and have our utmost confidence.
As we built our support staff we found many members brought with them special skills. We feel fortunate to have trained professionals who can offer services in so many aspects of security, safety and private investigations. When a problem or a condition arises, Corning Investigative Services can supply the answer to the issue.
Corning Investigative Services, “C.I.S.”, is a local company, and in many respects is a small company. However C.I.S. has been able to supply all the needed manpower for relatively large requests with very little lead time. Locations of our cases have been numerous and varied, and so far we have not found any locations that our members could not service.
Our ability to service such varied requests in private investigations, safety and security is directly related to the members supporting C.I.S. Discretion and professionalism is apparent in the quality of work each member provides. Clear and continual communication between the C.I.S. member and the client, as well as on time and quick response to an issue is insisted on for each case. Concise written reports and record keeping accompany each case.
We feel confident that all this, along with an honest, common sense approach to the client's needs, and a fair price, will make your experience with Corning Investigative Services successful.
