January 29, 2021 – Investigation Counsel PC, Fraud Recovery Lawyers, counsel for the victim, is requesting information from anyone having dealings with Donna Cornwell, born in 1964, of Brantford, Ontario.
On Normber 29, 2019, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice declared Donna Cornwell liable for fraud, breach of fiduciary duty and theft. The total judgment for the fraud is approximately $641,000. Ms. Cornwell has not moved to set aside the judgment and has not paid any of the judgment.
Ms. Cornwell worked for a Brantford based company as an administrator and financial clerk. The fraud was perpetrated over a four year period. Once the fraud was discovered, civil fraud recovery lawyers obtained court orders to have Ms. Cornwell’s bank accounts and other assets frozen. Forensic accounts from BDO Dunwoody were retained to trace the stolen funds.
After judgment was issued, a partial recovery was made from assets of Ms. Cornwell that were preserved by the freeze order. The fraud involved forged cheques and payment of personal credit cards from her employer’s accounts. Ms. Cornwell has refused to cooperate and explain where all the funds have been transferred and for whose benefit.
Anyone with information on Ms. Donna Cornwell’s assets or financial transactions from 2014 to 2019 is asked to contact D. Slenys of Investigation Counsel PC at 416-637-3151 or dslenys@investigationcounsel.com.
