We had two new team members join our forensic accounting team. Today our forensic accounting team helps clients and attorneys with digital forensics, eDiscovery, forensic accounting & internal control exams, background checks & fraud hotline reporting and forensic data analytics. We have always offered economic damage services but have recently expanded this team due to market need. Jeremy Bendewald, Eide Bailly’s Principal-in-Charge of Fraud & Forensic Advisory, shares “We are excited about the additions to our growing economic damage practice. We have seen an increasing number of opportunities in the markets we serve. Our additions will continue to enhance our service and position us to assist our clients when a damaging event occurs.”
