Our Forensics services
With a mix of skills across our financial investigations and forensics team, we are highly experienced in conducting complex investigations for clients, often where suspicions of financial irregularities exist, or allegations of fraud have been made.
We can advise at all stages: at the early stages when the preservation of evidence is vital, developing investigation strategies and getting information before people or key documents are lost, through to undertaking the investigations, analysing data and records, and reporting our findings.
We recognise the advantages of working with legal teams, including matters of privilege and of legal process. We accept instructions from both lawyers and clients.
We work on-site to provide swift responses, in circumstances that are highly stressful for you, and where a rapid outcome is crucial to limiting damage and enabling you to consider your recovery options.
