The standard of quiet professionalism.

Kingfisher Investigations was founded by Bryce Ernst, a former FBI Special Agent and military special operations strategist. Bryce built the firm to deliver the discipline and precision of federal intelligence work to the private sector.

Kingfisher operates as a trusted advisor to corporations, law firms, and select private clients who value verified intelligence and measured results. Every case is personally led by Bryce, ensuring direct accountability and consistent standards.

Our approach integrates the field tradecraft of human intelligence and protective operations with the analytical rigor of so clients can act with clarity and confidence.

Kingfisher’s capabilities are further strengthened by Anthony Lauer, a retired law enforcement and investigative professional with over 30 years of experience in the public and private sector. His leadership in complex investigations and protective operations brings a grounded, real-world perspective to our work with corporate and private clients.
