Forensic Accounting Expertise
We help people with accounting expert opinions and investigations in respect of various disputes, confrontational situations
and litigation. This is the speciality known as Forensic Accounting.
The problem with business and commercial disputes these days is they have become decidedly complex to the point where solicitors
and barristers and in particular the courts have recognised the need to involve Specialist Accountants early in the process
of rectifying the commercial issues their clients find themselves in.
Forensic Accounting is input as to the position from the accounting perspective.
This can include anything from the need to interpret what financial statements mean to taking accounting source documents
and analysing what has actually transpired. To resolve many disputes it can often be necessary to know the value of a business
or legal entity.
There are situations where one can interpret events in a certain way but the accounting evidence can be completely at odds
with the interpretation.
At Clout & Associates we have assisted in all forms of disputes by undertaking Investigations and providing of expert
evidence in the following situations:-
- Family law disputes where the value of businesses are of significance.
- Fraud cases
- Ownership disputes
- Minority oppression actions
- Corruption cases
- Insolvent trading actions
- Loss of profit
