Fraud Investigation

Preventing fraud is not only the right thing to do, but it can also save you money. LWCC’s special investigation unit tracks down fraudulent claims, gathers evidence and provides prosecutors with courtroom-ready cases. With more convictions than all other carriers in the state, our special investigation unit has saved millions of dollars over the years by uncovering fraudulent claims.
