Evidence Wins Cases.
Internal audits, AML and fraud concerns, employee misconduct and regulatory compliance reviews, investigated by licensed Florida PIs and organized for business attorneys. We take the complex cases other PI firms won't.
Most business disputes start quietly: an audit exception, a hotline complaint, a vendor nobody can explain, or a bank asking questions about a transaction. How the facts are gathered in those first weeks often decides how the matter ends. Our team, led by Alexander Maynfeld, Director of Investigations, brings military and law enforcement backgrounds to independent, documented fact-finding for Florida companies and the attorneys who represent them.
We work under the direction of your counsel, keep the circle small, and deliver organized findings that can support a business decision, a disciplinary action, a regulatory response or litigation. For a deeper look at how this works in practice, read our brief on compliance investigations in Florida business litigation, or see our business litigation investigation services.
When an internal or outside audit turns up exceptions that the books alone can't explain, we develop the facts in the field: who the counterparties are, whether addresses and businesses are real, and what happened on the ground.
Suspicious transactions, shell entities, layered transfers and unexplained relationships. We trace the people and companies behind the activity using lawful public-record, corporate and field research.
Expense abuse, kickbacks, side businesses, ghost vendors, time theft and policy violations. We help leadership and counsel separate suspicion from fact before anyone is confronted or terminated.
Hotline complaints, policy breaches and regulatory concerns need an independent factual review that holds up later. We work under counsel's direction so the findings fit your legal strategy.
When a compliance matter becomes a lawsuit, the internal review becomes the case file. We support commercial litigators with witness location, background research, asset investigations and testimony-ready reporting.
Departing employees, competing businesses and pirated products. We document competitive activity and help counsel build the factual record for injunctions and damages claims.
We discuss the concern with you or your counsel and define the factual questions.
We agree on objectives, methods, timing and who receives findings.
Research, field work, interviews and surveillance as lawful and appropriate.
Evidence logs, timelines, photos and video, preserved and organized.
A clear written report your attorney and leadership can act on.
Supplemental work, witness support or testimony if the matter proceeds.
An outside licensed investigator is independent from the people being reviewed, follows a documented method, and can be retained through counsel so the work is organized around the legal questions. That independence often matters later if the matter is challenged or litigated.
Yes. Many of our compliance and internal investigations are retained through outside counsel or general counsel. Whether privilege or work-product protection applies is a legal question for your attorney; we structure our reporting to fit counsel's instructions.
Yes. We research the people and entities behind suspicious activity, including corporate filings, beneficial ownership, related parties, addresses and asset records. We are investigators, not auditors or accountants, and we work alongside your forensic accountants when the matter needs both.
Preserve records, limit who knows, and avoid confronting the employee or making accusations. Talk to counsel early. A short confidential consultation with us can help define the objective and the scope before anything is disturbed.
We are based in Central Florida and work across Florida from Jacksonville to Naples, with most of our work in Central Florida. We are available 24/7 for time-sensitive matters.
Often, yes. Complex business litigation, IP, compliance, audits and AML matters are our focus. Many general PI firms decline this work; it is the core of ours.
