About Saul Investigations: Local Roots, Professional Protection
Licensed, Bonded, and Locally Owned.
Serving Tompkins, Cortland, Onondaga and Tioga Counties
We’re Your Neighbors, Protecting Your Community
We aren’t just a business operating in Central New York; we are a part of it. Our team grew up right here in Tompkins County. We are the people you went to high school with, and the ones you see alongside you at TC3, Ithaca College, and Cornell University. In fact, many of us are graduates of one of these institutions.
We’ve chosen to stay in this wonderful area because we believe in the strength and diversity of our neighborhoods. You’ll see us out in the community—shopping at local stores, attending events, and raising our families right here alongside yours. When you hire us, you’re hiring people who are personally invested in keeping our home safe.

From Public Service to Private Protection
Our expertise isn’t just learned; it’s earned. Many of our team members spent their careers serving the public as local police officers, Sheriff’s deputies, and State Troopers.
That background means our folks are:
- Approachable & Friendly: We believe security should be helpful and welcoming, not intimidating.
- Knowledgeable: We understand the local legal landscape and the specific safety needs of the Finger Lakes region.
- Always Alert: Our training in law enforcement ensures we notice the details that others might miss, whether we are providing event security or watching your home.
A True Partnership
We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” security. When you hire Saul Investigations, you get a true partner in your endeavors. We sit down with you to discuss your specific needs, your expectations, and exactly how we can help you achieve peace of mind.

- Fully Licensed: All of our personnel are certified and licensed by New York State.
- Insured & Bonded: We are fully insured and bonded for your protection.
