Launches Alliance With Former IRS Criminal Investigator Ron Braver
CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/CAMS?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#CAMSlt;/agt;–Cendrowski
Corporate Advisors (CCA) – a leading accounting, litigation support,
risk management, tax, and compliance consulting firm – today added to
its investigative, anti-fraud, money laundering, internal
investigations, and asset forfeiture capabilities with the launch of an
alliance with Chicago-headquartered Ron Braver and Associates LLC.
Braver and his firm bring more than three decades of combined Federal
law enforcement and private sector consulting experience with a focus on
high-profile investigations involving criminal tax matters, failed banks
and savings and loans, bankruptcies, and fraud across a range of issues
including securities, mortgage, healthcare, foreign exchange as well as
embezzlement. He is a former Special Agent and Supervisory Special Agent
of the IRS – Criminal Investigation division and was a senior manager in
the forensic accounting and investigative services practice of Grant
Thornton LLP.
“Confronting today’s sophisticated frauds and corporate malfeasance
takes a level of expertise that isn’t easy to find,” Harry Cendrowski,
CCA Managing Director, said, “and through our alliance with Ron and his
firm, we’ve done just that. As our Chicago office continues to expand,
Ron is a force multiplier that meets our client’s growing need for
exceptional investigative prowess.”
Braver added: “I’ve known the Cendrowski team by reputation for years,
and have seen many of their expert reports in prior matters where we
were mutually involved – and I’m looking forward to expanding the
investigatory and financial tools they can deploy for their clients
across a wide range of sectors.”
As a 26-year veteran of the IRS criminal investigation team – the bulk
of it in Chicago – Braver’s investigations led to approximately 75
guilty pleas/convictions and more than $41 million in forfeiture and
fines. He joined Grant Thornton LLP in 2010 and founded Ron Braver and
Associates LLC in 2012.
Across his career, Braver has received 25 awards and commendation
letters, including a 2006 nomination for Federal Employee of the Year,
the recipient of the prestigious Albert Gallatin award, and numerous
other exceptional performance awards.
He is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Fraud Examiner
(CFE), Certified Anti Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS), and a licensed
Private Detective in Illinois.
He holds an M.S. in Taxation from DePaul University and a B.S. in
Accounting from Truman State University (formally known as Northeast
Missouri State University).
