Welcome to Apex Forensic Services
Premier Forensic
Accounting Services
Analyzing Economic Damages
Complex disputes require depth and breadth of experience. We help unravel complicated financial transactions, reconstruct audit trails, prepare economic damage models, and provide expert witness testimony
Conducting Fraud Investigations
Corruption, financial statement fraud and asset misappropriation in the corporate setting take many forms and may include bribery of public officials, understating liabilities and expenses, accelerating revenues, payments to ghost vendors and a host of other types of fraud
Consulting on Anti-Corruption Matters
We possess deep expertise in both proactive and reactive engagements involving anti-corruption matters. On the proactive side, we’ve evaluated the efficacy of existing compliance programs and related controls, and performed risk assessments and gap analyses
Evaluating Compliance Systems and Procedures
Periodically testing the efficacy of compliance systems is a necessary step in the risk mitigation process. Early detection of wrongdoing is critical to reducing the myriad of potential costs (i.e., fines, disgorgement, investigations, litigation) associated with non-compliance
Recovering Losses Under Fidelity Coverage
We have assisted clients in recovering losses caused by employee acts of dishonesty, acting as both an independent, third-party neutral between the Insured and the Carrier, as well as working directly on behalf of the Insured
Analyzing Construction Losses
We conduct forensic investigations and analyze whether subcontractors have complied with contractual provisions regarding labor, materials and equipment charges billed to the Contractor
“Value-Based Fees”
With our vast business background and the experience born of being deep in the business trenches, we understand how to take the guesswork out of consulting support for our clients.
Whenever appropriate, “our clients enjoy a fixed fee pricing approach”, with benefits to you that include a billing model that ensures:
- Project scopes are tightly focused and agreed to in advance.
- There is a sharing of the pricing risk between both client and consultant, versus the typical one-sided open-ended hourly engagements where the clients bear all the pricing risks – and associated stress. Your business peace of mind is paramount.
We believe that fixed fees promote efficiency and an alignment of interests between you as our client and our team of highly skilled and experienced consultants. There is a partnership in ethical, client-centric consulting.
In those instances where fixed fees are not feasible, to effectively control costs we utilize a phased approach combined with very attractive hourly rates for the level of expertise provided.
