Knudson Investigations

Specializing in Fraud Examinations, Forensic Accounting & Private Investigations

Led by Carl R. Knudson, CFE, PI and former IRS special agent, and former "Big 5 Accounting Firm" Director.  We combine knowledge, experience and the most competitive fees in delivering our work product to our clients.  Mr. Knudson is a recognized fraud examiner, forensic accountant and successful expert witness in Fraud and Criminal Tax litigation.

We are a result driven team that has a history of integrity and excellence. We combine forensic accounting with investigative techniques to critically analyze financial evidence in order to prepare reports and declarations in support of litigation; or, in the defense of people accused of civil or criminal violations of State Law or Federal Law.

We have assisted counsel in numerous high-profile fraud cases in the investigation, preparation for trial or litigation, and testifying as a summary witness or as an expert witness.

We have worked with counsel in the appeal process and have provided alternative loss calculations to rebut plaintiff’s loss calculations.  We critically analyze plaintiff’s financial evidence in order to reveal errors and unsupported conclusions of plaintiff’s financial expert.

Our investigative team has analyzed crime scene evidence which uncovered exculpatory evidence that resulted in our client’s assault charges being dropped.  Our team has performed undercover investigations for a national grocery chain, and an electronics manufacturer.

We have worked with local government agencies to review management performance, look for conflicts of interest, and prepare report of our findings. We have worked for local activist groups to conduct investigations into potential government management misconduct and conflict of interest.
