Mortgage Lending Investigations
Companies across the mortgage lending landscape—from loan originators to insurers of mortgage
backed securities—are becoming the focus of regulatory inquiries or civil litigation. In
an effort to limit the scope of financial exposure and business risk, organizations can
conduct their own internal reviews, risk assessments and due diligence to analyze the
transaction process. We assist clients in conducting internal reviews to identify weaknesses
or misrepresentations during the transactional process, and couple direct industry knowledge
with dedicated capabilities in transaction analyses, investigative due diligence, computer
forensics and monitoring. Our professionals include licensed investigators as well as former
law enforcement officers, federal and local prosecutors, and bank officers who have investigated
and prosecuted mortgage-related crimes.

These services are essential for organizations and investors concerned about the unknown dimensions of a potential acquisition, investment or business relationship.
