Fraud Investigations

The federal government often has the right to audit, inspect and investigate its contractors. Pursuant to statutes, and terms and conditions of a government contract, the federal government is given the power to make these inspections and audits. Many audits concern financial matters, overcharges, compliance issues and defective pricing. How an audit or investigation is handled from begining to end can make a huge difference between a positive or negative outcome. Competent legal representation from the begining of the investigation process can minimize a contractor’s exposure to fines and penalties as well as criminal or civil charges.
