SJOG have been using Pace Henley for 10+ years for our factual investigations and surveillance for W/Comp and IR matters and we could not speak more highly of them. Brad, Dennis and their team are professional, prompt, very easy to deal with and provide the best results of all firms we have tried - Pace Henley are the only firm we have continued to use throughout the 10+ years.
Factuals are thorough and go the extra mile, without us even needing to request this, and are always delivered within the allocated timeframe.
Surveillance is professional, with regular updates and the footage captured
