Bank Fraud Expert Witness | 30+ Years Experience

Specialties & Experience of this Expert Witness

Additional Information

I serve as an expert witness in bank fraud matters, providing independent, objective analysis in disputes involving alleged fraud, negligence, and control failures across financial services. I bring 30+ years of experience spanning bank fraud operations, fraud risk management, product and channel lifecycle oversight, legal and compliance governance, and financial crimes investigations—including courtroom testimony experience in criminal fraud cases. I help courts and counsel understand complex facts, industry practices, and whether an institution’s actions were reasonable under applicable standards. My expertise covers the full bank fraud lifecycle, including fraud program governance and strategy, risk appetite alignment, preventive and detective controls (authentication, transaction monitoring, analytics, decisioning), investigations and case management, escalation protocols, and documentation quality. I also evaluate customer impact and claims handling, including dispute resolution and reimbursement practices, and I assess fraud loss measurement and reporting methodologies for accuracy and consistency with expectations. In litigation, I assist with discovery review, independent control and program assessments, written opinions and declarations, expert and rebuttal reports, and clear, credible testimony in depositions, hearings, and trial. My opinions are grounded in industry best practices, relevant regulatory guidance (including FFIEC, OCC, and CFPB expectations), and decades of hands-on leadership in bank fraud risk programs.
