As a private security agency, Merrill's believes you should be protected from unwanted intrusions into your privacy, whether it is from the press or from less well-meaning individuals.

Corporate executives, celebrities, government leaders, and other high profile individuals are repeatedly in risk-prone situations that require a high degree of personal protection.

The Fundamentals of Protection

Threat Assessment
The protection process starts with a comprehensive interview of the protectee and their family or organization.   Every detail of an existing or potential threat is considered and a preliminary evaluation assessment is made.  

Site Evaluation
Whether the protectee is on the move or in a familiar location, every situation deserves a thorough evaluation.   A typical assignment requires 1 to 2 days of detailed analysis and investigation.  Buildings, transportation systems (vehicles, roadways, airports etc.) and accommodations are researched, checked and documented.

Planning
With the inputs collected the onsite team and remote management team brainstorm, plan and refine their plan so that every detail is addressed.  Experts at planning and management know that a plan is only as good as the ability to react appropriately to changes in circumstances.  With Merrill's you get the experience of protection experts who have the natural and trained instincts to make rapid decisions and keep several steps ahead of every threat.

Risk Management
Our policy ~ Get the protectee away from an identified potential threat or trouble before the threat becomes dangerous.   Decades of real world experience have proven the need adhere to a plan, react quickly and remove the protectee before the risk increases.

Equipment
State of the art communications, investigative, surveillance and protective equipment are standard on all assignments.   Special circumstances may demand specialty equipment.  Trust Merrill's to advise, procure and apply the right equipment for every case.

Presence and Discretion
At Merrill's we appreciate that every situation demands a unique approach to security.  Our agents are equally comfortable at golf outings, ski resorts and private estates as they are at formal dress occasions, international diplomats or attending large political rallies.   With Merrill's Investigations, you can depend on the utmost discretion.

Cover
Sometimes our agents intentionally reveal their cover, while at other times they take extensive measures to blend in.  During the evaluation and planning phases of an assignment our agent(s) makes their recommendations, inform the protectee of the options and consider and respect their personal preferences and requests.

In Action
Merrill's clients enjoy conducting their business, travel, family or recreation with the comfort, confidence and security they deserve.   We guarantee it!
