"Exceptionally creative and resourceful, Palma & Palma Investigations is by far one of the best private investigation firms in the Bay Area. If there is a witness that needs to be found or any information about a witness that needs to be uncovered, no one does it as professionally and as diligently as Sylvia Palma (licensee). I highly recommend her investigation services to those in need of high caliber and efficient investigation in complex matters."

"I was looking for gang expert information. Sylvia provided me with exemplars of her work, demonstrating her attention to detail and her extraordinary writing ability. Sylvia organizes her interview material and presents it in a concise and well thought out manner and writes clearly, with no distracting errors. It is clear from her writing that she has extracted the needed, relevant information and she presents it in the most useful and compelling fashion. Sylvia also provided me with information for several experts in the field. I would not hesitate to work with Sylvia on anything and would especially be interested in her work with difficult witnesses. I look forward to the opportunity to partner with her in the future."
