When fraud strikes an organization, moving quickly to freeze the perpetrators’ assets is paramount.  Financial experts, computer forensics specialists and legal teams help identify the schemes, the players, and possible asset recovery targets.  Generally, a thorough yet succinct affidavit outlining the known financial facts is needed to submit to the courts for the granting of a Mareva injunction and Anton Piller order (i.e. “freeze” and “seize” orders).

CHS has been involved in several forensic investigations that have entailed the uncovering and documenting of the financial scheme, the potential quantum of losses, and the seeking of recovery of assets.  For the latter, CHS has filed affidavits that have been fully accepted by the courts as the basis for the granting of Mareva injunctions and Anton Piller orders against the perpetrators, followed by the multi-location execution of the orders.
