About Our Firm

The Investigation Firm of C&M, LLC is a California state licensed private investigation firm.  We offer a focused range of investigation services with the necessary tools and legal knowledge to protect businesses and insurance companies from fraud, waste, and abuse.  Owner Mario Ivan Maldonado is not only a licensed private investigator, but he also holds the degree of Master of Legal Studies from the Pepperdine University Caruso School of Law.  Since 2001 he has conducted investigations on behalf of criminal defense attorneys, as well as investigated auto accident liability claims and workers' compensation claims.  He now operates this firm based in Southern California.

​​

Many investigators promise to deliver information; however, at our firm, our team of investigators knows that "just the facts" is not enough.  We gather the type of information that assists our clients to make informed decisions and to take a position on a case or claim.  Our clients appreciate our knowledge on legal defenses and our ability to identify inconsistencies and discrepancies in alleged victim and witness statements, as well as within police reports.

​

Sometimes an investigation may uncover information that a client deems unfavorable to their position; however, early confirmation of "unfavorable" information can help mitigate unnecessary, prolonged litigation.  

​

We partner with our clients from start to finish and we are committed to providing high-quality customer service with integrity, discretion, and professionalism.

​​

Our years of experience have taught us to always make your business success our priority.
