Integrity and Objectivity You Can Count On

The dictionary defines forensics as “the use of science and technology to investigate and establish facts in criminal or civil courts of law.” That precisely describes what Veris provides in the areas of financial statement and accounting analysis, calculations of economic damages, insolvency measurements and reinsurance-related disputes.

The past several years have seen heightened public concern about and scrutiny of accounting and financial reporting making them a subject of much criticism and increased regulatory oversight. Corrections of financial statements have occurred on an unprecedented scale in both magnitude and scope. Because of this, significant change has occurred in the landscapes of directors’ and officers’ duties, corporate accountability to shareholders, regulatory oversight and the relationships of corporations and their external auditors.

During this time, Veris has actively consulted in many of the highly publicized cases that have contributed to this changing landscape. Our professional staff’s ability to respond to highly technical issues in an understandable manner with an uncompromised commitment to integrity has resulted in dramatic growth in the scope of our services and areas of specialization.

Veris provides litigation consulting services to both plaintiff and defendant parties. We have been engaged on behalf of regulators and as adverse to regulators, on behalf of parties asserting claims against outside professionals and on behalf of defendant outside professionals.

In addition to law firms, we have also consulted with and testified on behalf of the United States Department of Justice in claims made against various departments of the federal government. On a state level, we have been engaged by several state regulators in connection with their oversight and investigation of failed insurance companies and to assist them with forensic analysis, as well as evaluation of the conduct of directors, officers and third parties. We have provided this assistance in connection with several of the largest failures in US history.
