Michael Walsh - Managing Director
Head of International Investigations
Michael Walsh’s approach to problem solving through investigations has its origins in a professional career dedicated to uncovering fraud in both the public and private sectors. He has partnered with Dan Nardello for nearly 10 years, spearheading complex, multi-jurisdictional investigations from his base in London as head of Nardello & Co.’s international investigations. As a detective in the Metropolitan Police Fraud Squad at New Scotland Yard and at the Serious Fraud Office, he tracked white collar crime across international borders, specifically in Africa, the Middle East, the Far East and the former Soviet Union.
Michael leads Nardello & Co.’s multiple-country casework teams in litigation support, pre-transaction due diligence, fraud detection and prevention matters, forensic accounting and reputation-related issues. He and his staff consistently obtain, organize and evaluate thousands of pages of legal, financial and business documents for their potential evidentiary value.
In addition to Michael’s leadership qualities, he is an experienced and skillful interviewer. His on-the-ground work for Nardello & Co. has taken him to the Far East, Middle East, Eastern Europe and Central Asia where his thoroughness and sensitivity to cultural practices and laws has resulted in the successful conclusion of many FCPA-related and other fraud investigations.
Michael Walsh has been recognized with numerous official commendations for the quality of his public service and investigations into white-collar crime.
