Construction companies face a higher risk of corporate fraud than companies operating in other industries. The very nature of construction and other third-party contracting relationships creates opportunities for things to go wrong and remain undetected.

 In this webcast, Grant Thornton’s national Construction Advisory Services practice leader will discuss how construction fraud most frequently occurs and how contractors and construction project owners can protect themselves from being victimized by fraud.  Some of the topics discussed include:
  • How dishonest contractors and employees steal from construction project.
  • In this troubled economy, the risk of being a victim of fraud has grown significantly - learn how construction project owners and their attorneys should be prepared.
  • What attorneys need to know about anti-fraud accounting and project control procedures when advising construction project owners regarding:         
    1. Contract design         
    2. Claims and disputes
    3. Fraud investigations
