Overview

Why this matters

Most accounting work is recurring and rules-based. Some is not. Specialized accounting covers the situations where deep technical expertise, investigative skills, or transaction experience are the difference between a clean outcome and a costly one. Our specialists handle forensic accounting investigations including fraud reviews and asset tracing, business valuations under US, UK, Canadian, and Australian standards, M&A support covering buy-side and sell-side financial diligence, working capital adjustments, and SPA mechanics, plus restructuring, insolvency support, and expert witness work on litigation matters. We work alongside legal counsel, deal advisors, and your existing accounting team rather than replacing them. Each engagement is scoped tightly with clear deliverables, evidentiary standards where applicable, and a senior practitioner accountable for the work. The aim is straightforward expertise applied to non-routine problems where the cost of getting it wrong is high.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does forensic accounting actually cover?

Forensic accounting covers fraud investigations, asset tracing, financial dispute analysis, anti-money-laundering reviews, and quantification of losses for insurance or litigation claims. Workpapers and reports are prepared to evidentiary standards suitable for regulatory or court use.

Which valuation standards do you work to?

We perform valuations under US standards (USPAP, AICPA SSVS), UK practices aligned with ICAEW and IVSC guidance, Canadian CBV standards, and Australian APES 225. We document methodology, comparables, and key assumptions so reports stand up to tax authority, court, or transaction scrutiny.

Do you replace deal advisors in M&A?

No. We provide the financial accounting and diligence workstreams, including quality of earnings, working capital, and SPA mechanics. Lead M&A advisory, legal, and tax structuring stay with your appointed deal advisors and counsel, and we coordinate closely with them.

Can you act as an expert witness?

Yes. Our senior specialists provide expert witness reports and testimony on accounting, valuation, and damages matters. Engagements are scoped against the applicable rules of procedure in the relevant jurisdiction and country.
