Brad Sameulson, Vice-President, Colonial Oil Industries

Over the ten years since we have been using Lux and his team for transcription and various electron filing jobs, they have done a great job of providing rapid and dependable service. He stops by frequently as a helpful, friendly, but non-intrusive visitor, fine tuning the service, software, and hardware. We consider their services to be the most cost/time efficient option. Highly recommended.
