Notable Achievement - Insurance Fraud
"Video surveillance, wired audio conversations, and witness statements led to the arrest and convictions of numerous people"
Leonard Golino has successfully completed a large scale insurance fraud and medical fraud investigation that cost multiple tri-state insurance companies, hundreds of thousands of dollars in fraudulent claims that were paid out. The use of video surveillance, wired audio conversations, and witness statements led to the arrest and convictions of numerous people, including many prominent individuals. Further investigation led to the closing of several medical clinics that were also involved in the fraud scam. As a result of this investigation a well respected insurance company donated a vehicle to the NYPD vehicle fleet, in appreciation of a job well done on a very complex investigation.
