Neo Forensics is a global private investigations firm based in London
Comprehensive Investigate Services Delivered with Integrity and Expertise
Asset Tracing and Recovery
We specialize in asset recovery. Collecting evidence, interviewing witnesses and suspects, forensic lab analyses, reviewing electronically stored information, gathering cyber intelligence, tracing funds and locating assets – these are our tools to recover proceeds of fraud for our clients.
We have traced and chased proceeds of crime around the globe. Criminals know how to hide funds, we know how to find them. As the means to transfer funds through a maze of offshore accounts and intermediaries became increasingly accessible to fraudsters, so too have the methods and practices to trace flows of funds developed significantly. At Neo Forensics we employ the most technologically advanced methodologies to trace money flows and we closely cooperate with leading practitioners in the industry.
Fraud Investigations
Fraud takes endless shapes and forms. The oldest techniques and the newest technologies get fraudsters what does not belong to them. Our skilled investigation team, equipped with state-of-the-art technology, gets it back. Discreetly, quietly, efficiently.
Fraud is a criminal offence. We investigate fraud as a crime. That means we are ready to prove the elements of fraud beyond reasonable doubt in the courts of justice. Our team has trained alongside officers of law enforcement and often works side-by-side with the authorities. We have special expertise in investigating fraud in Banking, Construction, Oil & Gas, Industrial Products, Automotive, Telecommunications, FMCG and Leisure industries. We employ a full range of investigative and forensics procedures including interviewing, deception detection, documentary evidence collection and analysis, business intelligence, digital forensics, forensic accounting, data analytics, thin-layer chromatography lab analysis, voice analysis, investigative discourse analysis, image analysis, deep and dark web intelligence and cyber intelligence.
Dispute Support
We support our clients in their disputes whenever investigative skills and evidence collection are required. We have supported a range of commercial disputes, shareholders disputes, employment disputes, bilateral investment treaties disputes, regulatory inquiries, arbitration and third party mediation proceedings.
Investigation skills and expertise in forensics provide great leverage in dispute resolution. By applying a “beyond reasonable doubt” standard to our work, we help legal teams to engage in legal proceedings fully prepared and armed with evidence that is material, relevant and admissible. We are prepared to act as fact and expert witnesses whenever it is required.
Digital Forensics and E-discovery
At times an entire investigation can be conducted and concluded based on digital evidence. Our experts have decades of experience in digital forensics collections and digital forensic investigations.
We preserve, collect, verify, systematize, and analyse data from all types of computers, digital devices and cloud services. Wherever crucial data is stored, we can locate and forensically image the data for subsequent processing, systematization and analysis. We work with key vendors and suppliers in the digital forensics and e-Discovery space to provide those digital forensic and electronic information review services which are relevant and proportional to the investigative tasks at hand.
Due Diligence
When risk factors in to business decisions, we help our clients obtain relevant information to enable sound business analysis. Whether for an investment, merger, acquisition, market entry, new product launch, signing up a new supplier or service provider, due diligence serves as a crucial defence against all sort of legal, regulatory and reputational risks.
We collect detailed information from public domain, government registries, commercial databases, social networks, site visits and witnesses in order to draw a true, objective and unbiased picture of the due diligence subject. In a world where AI-based technology solutions such as ChatGPT can collect and synthesize a vast amounts of open-source information in a matter of minutes, it is our experience and expertise that makes the real difference in discerning bits of information lying well below the surface, which usually are hidden from data scrapping engines and services.
Ethics & Compliance
We investigate ethics and compliance violations which can put organizations at risk of government and regulatory investigations. Although internal compliance departments can uncover and investigate many of the compliance risks faced by businesses, there might be high-stake situations where independent highly specialized external investigators are required.
Neo Forensics’ team has conducted dozens of compliance investigations, reviews and risks assessments for many clients from different industries and geographies. While FCPA, UK Bribery Act, Anti-Money Laundering rules and regulations remain important, there are new types of industries such as blockchain, crypto, fintech, foreign exchange and payment transfer services where regulations lag behind technology. We posses the relevant expertise, skills and knowledge to investigate both “old” and “new” ethics and compliance risks and violations.
