Litigation relating to various types of fraud is fairly common and it is seldom that an investigative or security expert is required.  In some unusual cases, however, there may be a need for an expert to function as a litigation consultant or even testify as an expert.

Over the years, Mr. Schmedlen has been involved in many fraud matters in a consulting and investigative role--both throughout North America and abroad.  Although many of these matters resulted in civil and/or criminal actions, he has only been retained as an independent litigation consultant on one case, thus far. 

Although he is a Certified Fraud Examiner, Mr. Schmedlen admittedly is not qualified to function as an expert in all types of financial fraud cases and will only accept cases of this type where he would qualify as an expert.

As noted elsewhere on this Web site, Mr. Schmedlen has extensive experience and expertise in two specific types of fraud: Warranty Fraud and Gray Market Fraud.  However, additionally he is experienced in some other fields of fraud.

Mr. Schmedlen's curriculum vitae does not include information on his expertise and experience in the investigation of fraud.  For detailed information on Mr. Schmedlen's experience on this subject, please request this by e-mail expert@lpconline.com or call him direct at 810/629-7569 during normal business hours.

EXPERIENCE WITH FRAUD CASES

Mr. Schmedlen has successfully conducted major fraud investigations throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, Southeast Asia and Australia.  In many of these cases, he worked closely with internal auditors and CPAs in the field.  In several cases recoveries or savings were in the millions.

Mr. Schmedlen has actively participated in the development of corporate antifraud programs and assisted many companies in the development of various contingency plans related to loss control. The annual savings resulting from one such program has been equated to $600 million in new sales or the profits generated by 5,000 full-time employees.
