TESTIMONIALS

“Thank you for the follow up. Your tenacity to both the question and to client service is truly admirable. I am very appreciative and recognize that many vendors in our industry would not have bothered further, particularly if their invoice was not being disputed.”

 

“Thank you very much for sending this through so promptly. We have been extremely satisfied with your undertaking of this project and your responses. It has been a pleasure. I do hope to have the opportunity to work with you again soon.”

 

 “The case presented several problems for us, and the investigator.  Lack of information from the client; or, conflicting data in the DDQ; national privacy issues in the country, additional entities associated with the address and principals etc. Consequently, thanks for doing a great job of getting as much information as you could to help clarify a murky situation and for going the extra mile to try to get us the info.”

 

“On behalf of myself and my firm, we wanted to thank you again for your recommendation of EBM Consulting for our investigation in Hong Kong. Both Spencer Elmer and his colleague Mark Burns have been nothing short of excellent and have not only met, but exceeded our expectations. I would without a doubt recommend them to anyone.”
