Identify the proposed amount
Preserve the actual schedule, source records and assumptions. Distinguish claimed amounts, payments, recoveries and proposed legal calculations. Counsel and qualified financial reviewers determine the applicable treatment. A public headline or policy limit is not a substitute for the analysis.
Document the individual chronology
Identify actual actions, responsibility and knowledge with dates and supporting sources. Do not assume that a business-wide figure explains every participant or that personal gain controls every legal measure. Keep factual and legal questions separate for review.
Verify the broader personal record
Organize professional history, family circumstances, treatment, character support and documented corrective work where appropriate. Distinguish completed actions from plans. The narrative should remain consistent with established facts and counsel’s assessment rather than relying on general claims of good character.
Build time for specialist review
Work backward from confirmed interview and hearing dates. Assign missing-record requests and financial questions to the appropriate reviewers. SAG can coordinate agreed preparation products while counsel controls legal arguments. No file size, publication credential or repayment effort guarantees an outcome.

Does the size of a claim predict the sentence by itself?
No. Counsel must evaluate the applicable law and individual facts; no single website figure predicts an outcome.
Sources and professional scope
Official background: FBI: Investigating Insurance Fraud and NAIC: Insurance Fraud. Sources checked November 6, 2026. These sources provide general context; counsel evaluates the actual jurisdiction, charge and applicable law. No historical statistics are used to predict an individual outcome.
A defined SAG assignment can include a personal chronology, indexed records, factual questions and preparation calendar. Counsel controls legal advice, responses and submissions. SAG is not a law firm, insurance adjuster, valuation provider or forensic accounting service. An engagement does not automatically establish privilege.
Based in New Jersey, SAG serves clients nationwide, with travel arranged for cases. No sentence, placement, release date or financial result is guaranteed.
For counsel: Discuss Support for Your Client. Begin with the role, stage and deadline; do not send account credentials or privileged advice through the inquiry form.
