If you were a victim of fraud we have the required experience in civil and criminal financial investigation and financial expert witness testimony to help. With years of financial and investigative experience, including at top federal agencies like the US Justice Department, US Department of Homeland Security, and the US Small Business Administration, we can analyze complex financial evidence to arrive at the truth.
"You can follow the action, which gets you good pictures. You can follow your instincts, which'll probably get you in trouble. Or, you can follow the money, which nine times out of ten will get you closer to the truth." - The Two Jakes
