Real Estate & Mortgage
Given recent revelations concerning the
disastrous real estate and mortgage scandal there has been and
continues to be ever increasing fraudulent real estate and mortgage
fraud on an unprecedented scale. Undoubtedly it will be years
before the impact of such activities will be known. Unfortunately
those charged with protecting the interests of buyers, sellers,
contractors, insurance companies and lending institutions have
in many cases been the source of such fraudulent activities.
Our professionals provide those who are
victimized by fraudulent conduct to have a fraud risk analysis
of any real estate or mortgage transaction. Additionally, identify
those responsible for the fraud and develop a strategy to hold
them accountable for their conduct and repair any damage they
may have caused.
Our staff professionals are well equipped
to examine documents germane to real estate and mortgage transactions
and have been successful in detecting, preventing and apprehending
perpetrators.
Many of the scams today are not discovered
until something triggers an inquiry. This combined with an archaic
public recording system of such transactions have allowed the
fraudsters to have unimpeded opportunities to commit these types
of fraud.
