Criminal Fraud & Embezzlement

White-collar crime, public corruption, employee embezzlement, and financial fraud — our network connects prosecutors and defense attorneys with certified fraud examiners.

When Criminal Charges Involve Financial Evidence

Criminal fraud cases — embezzlement, wire fraud, tax fraud, public corruption, money laundering, securities fraud — all share one thing in common: the evidence lives in financial records. Bank statements, ledgers, tax returns, business records, and transaction logs tell the story. But making that story clear to a jury takes a specialist.

Certified fraud examiners bring the investigative skills to trace funds, reconstruct transactions, quantify losses, and build a financial narrative that supports the case. Whether you're a prosecutor building a case or a defense attorney challenging the government's financial analysis, the quality of your expert matters.
