Investigations firm Nardello has launched its Financial Investigations & Forensic Accounting practice.
The new practice is spearheaded by the firm’s partner and chief legal officer Warren Feldman.
Nardello executive chairman Dan Nardello said: “Our decision to offer top tier forensic investigations and accounting services alongside our existing practices stems from our clients’ requests and will enable us to meet their growing multidisciplinary needs.”
The new practice will offer a range of services, including independent monitorships, financial risk due diligence for mergers and acquisitions, and anti-bribery and corruption measures.
The division will also offer clients asset tracing, and fraud investigations, the company said.
Nardello also added a cadre of experienced forensic accountants to its teams in New York and Los Angeles in the US, and London, UK.
Managing directors Jean Chow-Callam, Paul Nash, and Alberto Orozco bring a wealth of expertise to the practice.
They join forces with financial and forensic investigators Peter Tutton and Ken Newlands in London, and John Auerbach in New York.
Jean Chow-Callam, based in Los Angeles, specialises in forensic accounting consulting, financial statement analysis, and due diligence.
Chow-Callam has provided her expertise to audit committees and companies facing GAAP or SEC reporting investigations and has a background in both big four accounting firms and corporate investigations, the company said.
Based in London, Paul Nash has more than two decades of experience in financial fraud and corruption investigations.
A Fellow Chartered Certified Accountant, Nash has advised corporations, law firms, and international institutions on sensitive financial matters, particularly those related to bribery and corruption.
Alberto Orozco joins the New York team as an expert in forensic accounting and compliance.
With experience from a Big Four accounting firm, Orozco has advised on cross-border regulatory inquiries and developed governance programmes.
Feldman said: “Financial issues are central to nearly every substantial legal dispute, in addition to high-stakes business situations such as bankruptcy and restructuring proceedings.
“The new team is ideally suited to meet clients’ rising financial investigations needs by providing them with a one stop shop for support.”
