Corporate Fraud

Industry estimates suggest that the cost of corporate fraud totals approximately a trillion dollars each year.

The Interfor team of forensic accountants had years of diversified financial and operational auditing experience combined with knowledge of related legal processes. As a means of mitigating further risk, the Interfor team of forensic accountants has years of diversified financial and operational auditing experience in designing and implementing internal accounting and management control for loss prevention.

Theft of Proprietary Information and Trade Secrets

In the new high-technology market, intellectual property is a critical asset that must be protected.

Interfor specializes in conducting corporate investigations to determine areas of vulnerability and to identify the sources responsible for thefts or losses of intellectual property. Interfor's Business Fraud Investigations Team includes computer experts, forensic computer specialists and security professionals.

Interfor also conducts security surveys to minimize further damage and protect the integrity of proprietary information. We design and install customized preventive procedures and systems to secure information and intellectual property.

Counterfeit and Product Diversion Investigations

Intellectual property is an increasingly valuable asset in the information-based economy where brand name recognition can be crucial to a company's success.

A manufacturer or licensee discovers all too often that products are showing up in unauthorized channels of distribution or market areas in the U.S. or abroad, leading to lost profits as well as dilution of its trademark. Some companies are plagued by third-party counterfeiting or infringement of copyrights and trademarks. Others have internal problems, namely theft, leading to millions of dollars in lost profits.

Interfor's in-depth knowledge and experience in combating these criminal enterprises helps our clients to protect their patents, trademarks and copyrights. Working with companies in a wide range of businesses, Interfor brings to each case a record of success in exposing such fraudulent activities.
