About Us
West Coast Detectives International and Special Police Patrol was founded in 1922 by Jay Brantley in South Los Angeles. The agency thrived in the roaring ’20s and survived the Great Depression and built a client list of hundreds of companies and some of the top celebrity clients of the growing film and studio industry.
In 1950, Mr. Brantley passed away and the agency was taken over by Stanly Comstock. Mr. Comstock expanded the agency into a national powerhouse in the Investigative and Security fields.
In 1977 when Mr. Comstock retired, the agency was taken over by Philip Little who continued the long tradition of serving every client with integrity, diligence, and a commitment to provide the highest quality of service and professionalism. Mr. Little with his passion for intelligence gathering expanded the agency into the international arena as he established stations and offices around the world. Mr. Little is still the CEO of the agency.

PROVEN SUCCESS
After reviewing the accomplishments over our 100 years of service, many of them came from those who built the first 55 years of the agency. We have had three leaders, Jay Brantley, Stanley Comstock, and I have been the Chief and CEO since 1977. When I reflect on our tens of thousands of clients, the hundreds and hundreds of commendations, awards, and recommendations from those we have served, I am humbled to have been part of our success.
When in a media profile we were called “THE LITTLE FBI” I felt my telling people we were second to none was recognized by others.
Case Archive:
We were contacted by a group in New York who were the victims of a diamond scam based out of Ghana. They had lost 3 million dollars and were looking for some help.
Their first problem was that they did not conduct proper Due-Diligence on the group and the individuals involved. If they had retained our services at the start, we could have saved them millions of dollars.
Through our investigative services and our investigative and legal associates in Ghana, we obtained the scammer’s base of operation, financial information, and names of the various individuals. Our team on the ground in Ghana, directed by Phil Little, conducted surveillance and other covert investigative activities.
Within a few months of dedicated and intensive investigative work, we had obtained enough information to complete our report and provide it to the F.B.I.
The F.B.I. agent assigned to the case appreciated our work. Using our report to work from, upon the scammers return to the United States the F.B.I. made arrests and prison time was served.
WCDI has conducted similar operations worldwide.
