ABOUT RON CLARK – LAWYER
WHY RON CLARK?
"Being a lawyer and a private security agent,
I ensure that your case
will be legally pursued from the initial gathering of evidence, to
the apprehension of the offender and the recovery of your assets.”
I believe that the most successful investigators of corporate crime
are those investigators who have had private sector experience,
combined with practical experience in law, policing and business. I
draw on the experience of having investigated many acts of fraud and
corruption and unethical behaviour. I believe in educating our
clients and their staff to understand how fraud and corruption can
be identified quickly and how to respond when it is detected.
INFORMATION GATHERING
Information gathering that produces useable evidence to win in court
is not always simple. Evidence is often mishandled or acquired
illegally. This taints your case and allows the offender to go free
and reoffend.
I am a Law Institute of Victoria accredited criminal
lawyer, a former criminal trial barrister, former detective sergeant
in the Victoria Fraud Squad, and a licensed private security agent,
is well versed in the laws of information gathering, forensic
evidence and evidence retrieval. If evidence exists, it will be
found, analysed and the offender brought to justice.

Through no fault of your own,
your business may be exposed to substantial financial loss,
tarnished reputation and non-productive expenditure of management
energy and time.
As business becomes more
complex, so do financial webs woven by corporate criminals.
