            Common Stock of Enhanced Services Company, Inc.; COMMISSION FILE NO.
            9-24256

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

      I have acted as counsel to Enhanced Services Company, Inc. (the "Company)
in connection with a Registration Statement to be filed with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C., pursuant to the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, covering the registration of the aggregate of 125,000
shares of the Company's $.001 par value Common Stock (the "COMMON STOCK") which
may be issued to Kennedy Miles & Associates, Ltd. ("KMA"), and Richard Fisher
("FISHER"), consultants to the Company pursuant to the Consulting and Warrant
Compensation Agreements with KMA and Fisher (the "CONSULTING AND WARRANT
COMPENSATION AGREEMENTS") and otherwise, under Common Stock Purchase Warrants
exercisable to purchase up to 125,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock.

      As a basis of my opinion expressed below, I have examined such records of
the Company, such certificates of public officials, and such other documents as
we have deemed relevant and necessary. I have assumed the conformity to the
originals of all copies and the authenticity of all originals. As to various
questions of fact to our material, I have relied, after due investigation, upon
inquiries made by myself of an officer or officers of the Company.

      Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion as follows:

      1.    The Company has been duly incorporated and organized under the laws
            of the State of Colorado and is validly existing as a corporation in
            good standing under the laws of that State.

      2.    The Company's authorized capital consists of Twenty Million
            (20,000,000) shares of Capital Stock of the Company, of which
            15,000,000 shares are designated Common Stock having a par value of
            $.001 per share and of which 5,000,000 are designated preferred
            stock, having a par value of $.001 per share.

      3.    The 125,000  shares of the Company's  Common Stock proposed to be
            issued  pursuant to the  exercise of  Warrants  granted  under the
            Consulting  and Warrant  Compensation  Agreements  and  otherwise,
            will,  upon the  exercise of such  Warrants and the payment of the
            warrant  exercise  price  pursuant  to the terms  thereof and such
            Warrants as more fully  described in the  Registration  Statement,
            be duly and  validly  authorized,  legal  issued,  fully  paid and
            nonassessable.

            Very truly yours,
            Enhanced Services Company, Inc.
