Veritas Assurance Partners

What Veritas Assurance Partners does

Veritas Assurance Partners is a boutique international investigative and consulting firm headquartered in Miami, Florida, founded in 2010 by Manuel E. Fernández Supervielle and Billy F. Marlin. The firm provides seven interconnected service lines — Due Diligence Investigations, Fraud & Corruption Prevention, Asset Tracing & Recovery, Dispute Resolution, Intellectual Property Investigations, U.S. and Foreign Government Advice and Interface, and Innovative Ethical Problem Solving — delivered through a global integrated network of former law enforcement officials, military and intelligence experts, forensic accountants, and conflict-resolution professionals. Native speakers of Spanish, Dari, Pushtu, Arabic, and Portuguese underpin its specialization in North and South America, Afghanistan, and Iraq, alongside broader coverage of the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. The firm is not a technology or software product company; its output is bespoke human expertise rather than platform-based services.

The firm sells exclusively to enterprise and government clients, organized around four primary customer segments: defense contractors operating in high-risk nations; prestigious law firms requiring litigation support; multinational corporations needing risk mitigation, intellectual property protection, due diligence, and FCPA compliance support; and US and foreign government agencies addressing political, financial-control, and corruption challenges. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales, with the firm engaging clients directly on a project basis for engagements that are quote-based and tailored to scope rather than priced from a published schedule. Marketing is supported by content publishing, including the Marquet Report on Embezzlement and Ponzi Schemes, blog content, and senior-partner podcast appearances, complemented by consecutive Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly reader-survey awards in 2022 and 2023.

Revenue mechanics follow a professional-services model with project-based consulting fees billed per engagement. The firm is privately held with no disclosed external institutional investment, no parent company, and no subsidiaries; operating status is active with a global claim of reach despite a stated headcount of 1–10 employees. Ownership and management are concentrated among six named senior leaders — two co-founders, one senior partner, an executive managing director, and two managing/executive directors — whose collective experience exceeds 100 years and includes prior executive roles at Kroll Associates, Marquet International, and Citigate Global Intelligence.
