Allepichian A.
Forensic Accountant, CFE, MAFF
As a Forensic Accountant, my role is to meticulously investigate financial information, providing invaluable assistance to attorneys, businesses, law enforcement, and individual clients. I've honed my expertise in criminal investigations and labor law disputes, and I bring strong capabilities in business valuation, shareholder disputes, due diligence in mergers and acquisitions, mediation, and serving as an expert witness. My career in the accounting field spans 20 years, during which I have excelled as a managerial and forensic accountant. After a decade in corporate controller positions, I took a leap of faith and founded an accounting firm that operated successfully across several states in the United States. This entrepreneurial venture was a testament to my passion and commitment to the field. Subsequently, I sold my firm to join the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as a forensic expert, a move that further enriched my expertise. I am well-versed in both Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), a testament to my continuous learning and growth. I am a licensed Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE), Master Analyst in Forensic Financials (MAFF), and an FBI Forensic Accounting Core Training Graduate. I earned my bachelor’s degree in financial accounting and strategic marketing from Rosemont College and am preparing for the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) exam. My professional affiliations include the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), the National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts (NACVA), and the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA). I've also been actively involved in community initiatives, having served as the treasurer of the Philadelphia Chapter of the National Association of Woman Business Owners (NAWBO), as a board member of the Life Enrichment Center in Tampa, Florida and I contributed to the IMA's Global DE&I committee and initiated a community for Handi-capable Awareness, in addition to founding the Mobility Freedom Foundation. I currently sit on the Financial Litigation Board for NACVA as well as the Legal Clinic for the Disabled (LCD) in Philadelphia.
