How To Build a Case for Law Enforcement (Florentine A/B)

After a robbery or embezzlement, we feel like victims who need time and help to recover from a monetary loss, and sometimes worse yet, an employee injury or a loss of life. But this is just the beginning. For the perpetrators to be caught, and if caught, to be successfully prosecuted and convicted, law enforcement needs us to give them the tools and documentation to help them do their job. Nobody knows your business like you do, and it's our job to educate. Our presenter will provide us with a blueprint of how to prepare your case so everyone from detectives to city attorneys, judges and juries can follow the sequence of events and understand the crime that has been committed.
