Counsel

Attorneys & litigation support

Disputes and legal proceedings often turn on the numbers. Forensic analysis provides detailed financial evidence, documented for evidentiary purposes.

Stakeholders

Partners, investors & other stakeholders

Partnership disagreements, buyout disputes, and investor concerns call for an independent accounting of the facts. Objective findings give all parties a common, reliable basis for resolution.

Forensic accounting vs. audit

Investigation or assurance — one establishes what happened, the other opines on the statements as a whole.

Forensic
Audit
Purpose

Investigative — examining suspected fraud, irregularities, or disputes to establish what actually happened.

Assurance — an independent opinion on whether the financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects.

Scope

Targeted — follows the specific transactions, records, and questions at issue, wherever they lead.

Broad — covers the financial statements as a whole, with procedures based on materiality and risk.

The deliverable

Objective, independent findings documented for evidentiary purposes — supporting decisions, disputes, or litigation.

An independent auditor’s report on the financial statements.

When it’s the right fit

Fraud is suspected, records don’t add up, or a dispute requires detailed financial evidence.

Stakeholders need recurring, opinion-level assurance on the financial statements.
