Outstanding Experience My name is Diane D. Pattison and I am a Professor of Accountancy at the University of San Diego. I have known Justin Paperny for three years. Every year we invite Justin to visit our University to offer lectures and discussions on ethics, compliance, and white-collar crime. We ask our students to read and write about his book, Ethics in Motion. His discussions help students understand the importance of compliance and the dangers of white-collar crime. The student feedback suggests that they value the discussion and gain valuable insight into ethics. More importantly, they reflect upon Justin’s reflection upon the fact that he went through a government investigation, endured the aftermath, and found a way to convert his weakness into a strength. I’m very grateful to the generous contributions he makes to the Accountancy Programs at the University of San Diego. I am happy to provide this stellar endorsement and a five-star review for Justin and his team at Compliance Mitigation.

Accountability, Sincerity, and Rewards The process of mitigation was truly rewarding for me. Well beyond the reward of my sentence being more than 13 months lower than the US Attorney sought (they wanted 33 months, sentence is 20). Going through the steps allowed me to sincerely own my accountability and express that throughout the presentence interview, my narrative, and my oral statement to the court. Having put in the necessary work, all mitigation on my part was cohesive, well stated, sincere, and meaningfully effective. The goals of the work were completely met, but even more the residual effects have been just as rewarding; allowing myself to take accountability, sincerely show remorse in both words and actions, and best of all focus on future goals. The work perfectly balances addressing the past while looking to the future. And as important as it is for the Court to see that, it allowed me as a person to really hear that as well. Every bit of guided work that I put in was rewarded in both tangible and intangible ways. I'm grateful for those who went before me always willing to listen, offer advice, and the guidance needed.

Good Compliance Saves Money and Heartache!!! My name is Greg Kling and I have known Justin Paperny for a little over three years. Justin has been a crucial and invaluable resource for our accounting students at USC. Not only do we assign his book, Ethics in Motion, as part of the core curriculum in the graduate and undergraduate Ethics for Accountant courses, but we ask Justin to come back each year to meet with our students and share his experiences and wisdom directly with them. I have seen that students have a much better understanding of the dangers of white collar crime and how to stay ethical after hearing from Justin. I wholeheartedly endorse Justin and his team at Compliance Mitigation!!!

I’m happy to share my experience I’m happy to share my experience of working with the team at Compliance Mitigation. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked in insurance. During that tenure, I served as the Chief Executive Officer or Chairman of three companies. Sadly, a bad decision led me into a government investigation. That investigation has tarnished a reputation I worked hard to build. With my life going into a tailspin, I started researching to look for help. I found the team at White Collar Advice, and later began working with the team at Compliance Mitigation. I found Justin Paperny and Michael Santos to be responsive and helpful in many ways. They helped me to craft a strategy to get back on track and to engineer a pathway would help me reconcile and make amends. I would have liked to have begun working with them earlier. Their guidance would have alerted me to potential problems that I had not previously considered. For this reason, I give the team at Compliance Mitigation five stars.

I trust Justin Paperny with my clients Justin Paperny is the only person I trust with my clients in his area of expertise. As an attorney, I am very particular about who I trust my clients with. Justin has been a resource for me, my clients, and he was kind enough to come speak at an attorney conference I put together in Texas. I highly recommend Justin and am thankful for all the wonderful work he does.
