Individuals and companies can be criminally prosecuted for accounting fraud, which is the intentional falsification or manipulation of accounting records or financial statements for financial gain.
Bienert Katzman Littrell Williams LLP attorneys, which include former federal prosecutors and federal public defenders, have considerable experience with accounting rules and financial regulations (such as the the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) and issues relating to financial and accounting fraud that arise frequently in the context of government investigations, internal investigations, and civil litigation.
Our team has represented numerous clients in accounting fraud proceedings before and involving the SEC, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and other federal and state governmental agencies. BKLW counsels and advises its clients using its in-depth understanding of prosecution strategies and complex financial crimes.
