Sean Manette

Sean Manette is the president and founder of Albion Investigative Services, Inc.

He began his career in criminal justice, working on federally funded research examining the links between drug abuse, gang involvement, and violent crime—research that involved in-depth interviews with incarcerated individuals in correctional facilities across New York State. He was subsequently an investigator in the Manhattan office of the New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct, investigating complaints of ethical misconduct against judges and gaining valuable insight into the justice system from a regulatory perspective.

After earning a Master’s Degree in Criminal Justice from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, Sean transitioned into the insurance field, where he has built a long-standing career grounded in integrity, analytical rigor, and investigative expertise. He holds licenses as an Independent Insurance Adjuster and Private Investigator in New York, and as a Private Detective in New Jersey.

With nearly 30 years of investigative experience, Sean has developed Albion Investigative Services into a top-tier firm known for its prompt, thorough, and reliable work. The company’s consistent performance and attention to detail have earned the trust of leading insurance carriers, including longstanding clients such as Berkshire Hathaway. Albion’s reputation is built on deep field experience, strong ethics, and a commitment to delivering actionable results—quickly and efficiently.
