KW Economics provides fraud and tracing analysis for cases venued in Houston, Texas. For an entity based in Houston, the records reconciliation and the funds-flow tracing are venue-independent: they run through the entity's own bank, ledger, and payment records and the accounts the funds moved into, and each transfer is documented to its source so the loss for each scheme can be tested at deposition. The local forum governs discovery and how the schedules are presented, and the report establishes what happened to the money without opining on intent. Civil claims arising in Houston are typically heard in the District Court sitting in Harris County. Deposition and trial testimony are available for Houston matters, in person or by remote appearance where the forum allows.
Employers such as Memorial Hermann Health System, HCA Houston Healthcare, and Houston Independent School District shape the Houston labor market, and where an analysis turns on local economic conditions it measures them against Houston-area data and the records of the person or business at issue rather than against a citywide average. Plaintiff and defense.
Forensic accounting for embezzlement, misappropriation, and financial statement irregularities. The work reconstructs the flow of funds through bank, ledger, and payment records, traces diverted assets to where they came to rest, quantifies the loss for each scheme identified, and documents the evidence trail so it can support a civil claim, an insurance recovery, or a referral to authorities.

Yes. KW Economics provides fraud and tracing analysis for attorneys handling matters venued in Houston, Texas, for plaintiff and defense counsel across the case mix common to Houston matters.
Bank statements, the general ledger, payment records, and the account records the diverted funds moved into. The tracing follows each transfer from its source to where the funds came to rest, quantifies the loss for each scheme identified, and documents the evidence trail so it can support a civil claim, an insurance recovery, or a referral. Whether the conduct was fraudulent is a question for the fact finder, and the report does not reach it.
KW Economics provides tracing schedules with the supporting documents indexed to each transaction, loss quantifications by scheme and period, reports written to support a civil claim, an insurance recovery, or a referral, reviews and rebuttals of opposing accounting analyses, and deposition and trial testimony. The appropriate deliverable depends on case posture.
