As I've said in the past, consider the source. As far as I'm concerned they mounted their offensive when they collaborated their illegal activities, got caught, got booted, got counter sued, soon to be got prosecuted, got broke, got sentence and finally got sent to jail. So their next offensive will be from prison.
The evidence is clear and literally, there's no escaping this. Having a criminal firm on the payroll for a civil case is NOT an offensive tactic, it's purely defensive. They're using them to avoid anything criminal being brought in discovery AND not violate rules of discovery. That has serious financial implications for that alone.
To be honest, I've never seen a criminal firm in a civil case being used tactically - offensive. Why not just feed the DA? It's free and they have resources to investigate. And using a forensic accountant....please! Not even plausible to consider....considering you've stated consistently the company income is less than $40k....where's the value? How much criminal books cooking can you do with less than $40k? Not like he took the corporate leer jet and went to the Bahamas...or hid money in the Isle of Man lol.
