Derish Associates Announces Alliance with Panoramic Consulting, an Intellectual Property Investigations Firm
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 09, 2014 -- Seth Derish and Mr. Kavowras have worked together for years on investigations around the globe. They recently firmed up this alliance when Mr. Derish attended the International Anti-Counterfeiting Coalition conference, which took place May 7-9 in Hong Kong. Also attending the conference were international law firms, U.S. and Asian law enforcement agencies, manufacturers' representatives, as well as the U.S. Consul General and his staff.
“As many of our existing clients already know, Mr. Derish's recent focus is in Latin America, as he lives and works in Costa Rica and is the District Director for Central America for the Council of International Investigators. The new partnership with Panoramic increases Derish Associates' global reach to include Asia,” said Mary Nikas, Vice President and Chief Investigator for U.S. Operations.
While Panoramic specializes in detection and gathering of evidence against foreign counterfeiters, Derish Associates provides background intelligence on the individuals and corporations behind these crimes, offering victims the information they need to recover damages.
