"We first worked with Ed Howard and Pax Bello Security Solutions in 2022 for specialized training in:
 

- Management of Aggressive Behavior/De-escalation Techniques

 - How to Handle a Trespass Warning Situation (Practical Exercise)

- How to Prepare a Written Witness Statement for Police (Practical Exercise)

 

The training couldn’t have been more timely—as shortly after, we had to issue a trespass warning and TRO. Ed was not only instrumental in preparing us but was also available for advisement during the situation.

Since then, we’ve relied on Pax Bello for a range of security needs, including mass alert systems, harassment prevention, video surveillance, employee training, panic button implementation, and expert guidance on various security concerns.

Ed is incredibly responsive, professional, and knowledgeable—a must-have resource for proactive security solutions. Don’t wait for a crisis—be prepared!"
