We unearth accurate information that is usable in court.
As the premier investigations firm for white collar defense practitioners, Nardello & Co. works collaboratively and creatively with defense counsel from the start of a government investigation through the end of the trial to create investigative strategies designed to challenge the government’s case and bolster defense theories.

Information uncovered in a white collar defense investigation has to be accurate and usable in court.
Our team includes former white collar crime specialists —agents, prosecutors, and defense lawyers — so we understand what intelligence and evidence will have the most impact in your case. We have an unsurpassed ability to gather facts that will make a difference in the case, but will also work as your strategic partner to analyze information, separate fact from fiction, and ultimately, provide you with evidence that can help you mount a successful defense.
We work with speed and discretion to get the information you need to mount a successful defense.
White collar crimes involving high-profile individuals are often decided in the court of public opinion before a formal trial even begins. When a public trial garners media attention, it can influence witnesses and cloud the facts. Our white collar defense team gets ahead of the case and gets the facts from the people closest to it before they have a chance to be influenced by outside actors.
