About Heartland Patrol and Investigations Inc.
Our Story
Jack Griffin and his family started Heartland Patrol and Investigations Inc in July of 2004, in a small office in Grand Prairie, TX. They have always had the heart to serve people and make a difference.
Jack being a Police officer himself since 1982 and in the security business since 1978, felt a great need to create a service company that people could trust and depend on. As DFW expanded over the last 40 years, so did the crime, and police officers no longer could focus on patrol prevention but were call driven. Due to the need, he set to start a company that could help deter crime and be an extra hand to our DFW law enforcement. Jack created Heartland to be different from all the other security services by giving clients officers they could trust through personal one on one service.
With Jack’s experience in the business since 1978, the company quickly expanded through the DFW after being founded in 2004. A year later, they relocated to the Dallas area, and Jack’s relative and longtime business partner James Roberts joined in 2005. James Roberts himself, being in the security business since 1980, brought great value to the company that helped the company’s growth.
Today you will hear about Heartland Patrol all throughout the metroplex, as we’ve reached recognition for our service and officers not only by the city of Dallas but by the state of Texas.
