Our Origin

Crash Investigation Group (Pty) Ltd was founded with one purpose: to bring credible, court-admissible crash investigation and data recovery to South Africa’s insurance, legal, and public sectors.

From our origins working alongside SAPS and OEM partners, we’ve grown into a national operation with forensic specialists, data technicians, and former law enforcement personnel — all working to ensure claims are resolved with precision and integrity.

Today, our mission is simple: deliver facts through technology. Whether it’s black box data, scene reconstruction, or fraud detection — we’re there when accuracy matters most.

Simon Bahll

Director & Lead Forensic Analyst "Every report we deliver represents a case, a claimant, and a decision that matters. We're here to get it right — not just fast."

The Mission

To provide transparent, court-admissible forensic investigations that support just decision-making in claims, legal disputes, and public interest matters.

Through technology, training, and truth-based methodology, we help insurers, brokers, attorneys, and state entities make informed, confident calls.

The Story

Crash Investigation Group began with a single purpose: to elevate crash and claim forensics to international standards in South Africa.

Founded by industry specialists and SAPS collaborators, CIG grew to become a national force — combining OEM-accredited tools, legal insight, and investigative fieldwork to serve insurers, state bodies, and forensic clients across all nine provinces.

Our Vision:

To evolve as the most trusted forensic investigation partner in Southern Africa — setting the benchmark for accuracy, turnaround time, and expert independence.
