Mirko and his team have been great to work with, very professional and flexible. When a project requiring security had to be extended several times at short notice we were very pleased that they were able to work with us to ensure the property was covered.

Mirko and his team at Themis are simply outstanding! I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience with Themis Security - they are responsive and adaptive to the situation at hand... and some of those situations have been challenging. The team is available 24/7 and are willing to go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. 5 stars for this security services company. Kevin White - Property Management Services

The Bottle Depot has been thrilled with Themis Security's very professional and thorough security guard service at our Queens Ave Depot in downtown Victoria. In addition to protecting our staff and customers, they also safeguard our property and have been very effective at liaising with local Police and Bylaw as any matters arise. Their mobile response team is also very capable and are always available when called upon. Our Depot team trusts Themis' guards fully, and Mirko Filipovic, Themis' President, is a true professional in every respect having gone above and beyond personally on numerous occasions

Report
We contracted Themis Security to help with an ongoing issue with vandalism and trespassing on our downtown property. Within a couple of weeks Themis was able to move these people from our property after we had struggled for over 2 years with this issue. We now ask ourselves why we didn't retain them before. I would highly recommend Themis for your security needs.
