NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 23, 2003
BDO Seidman LLP, one of the nation's leading professional service organizations, has announced that Neil Moran, the first recipient to receive the FBI Shield of Bravery and FBI Star Medal simultaneously, has joined the firm's Fraud Investigation and Recovery Services Team (FIRST(R)), effective immediately.
Mr. Moran will serve as a senior manager and will be located in the firm's New York City offices.
"As forensic accountants and professional investigators, we have experienced unprecedented growth in recent years and we are always interested in adding additional resources to meet the growing demands of our clients," said Carl Pergola, National Director of the BDO Seidman's Litigation and Fraud Investigation Services practice. "Neil Moran brings a career of achievement in investigative service to BDO and we are extremely pleased to add his valuable experience to our team."
Neil Moran, 53, joins BDO from a national investigative firm concentrating on investigations for law firms and major insurance carriers involving product liability, mortgage and bank fraud, bond claims and employee misconduct. Prior to joining the private sector, Mr. Moran spent 29 years with the FBI. During this time he managed a unit that supported the investigation of white-collar crime, organized crime, insurance fraud and other activities in New York and the Northeast United States. Mr. Moran assisted Federal prosecutors with trial presentation and jury selection in proceedings resulting from complex and lengthy investigations. He received a Bachelor of Arts from Niagara University.
