OUR EXPERIENCE

  • We conducted a review of documents and conducted interviews for a major public utility company which had experienced significant losses due to a failed natural gas hedging strategy. We determined what went wrong with the strategy and who was responsible.

  • We conducted investigations of sole source contract issues for a major company during which we uncovered waste, abuse, and an apparent kickback scheme.

  • We conducted covert investigations of employees of a large public entity which resulted in a determination that the employees were not at their assigned work places, had falsified time sheets, and had engaged in improper behavior during their work day.

  • We have been engaged to conduct numerous audits and training related to the federal Patriot and Bank Secrecy Acts at large financial institutions.

  • We investigated a significant embezzlement by a company bookkeeper and turned over the evidence to local prosecutors which resulted in a conviction and recovery of some assets.

  • We have conducted trade mark and service mark investigations for a large multi-national company which resulted in civil actions favorable to the company.
