Forensic Accounting

We investigate financial misappropriation, improper payments, theft and fraud. Our forensic accountants have experience in restructuring, investigations, and valuations for a wide range of clients including global public companies (including Special Committees), government entities, private businesses, lenders, investors and not-for-profit agencies.

We have been accepted as forensic accounting experts and testified in both civil and criminal matters. We have also been appointed Inspector by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice to investigate alleged malfeasance. Commonly, our restructuring assignments include a forensic accounting component. We have worked closely with counsel in the context of Ponzi schemes and provided financial support to assist counsel to obtain Mareva injunctions and Anton Piller orders.

Our clients include global public companies (including Special Committees), private businesses, government entities, creditors and not-for-profit agencies. Our service offering allows us to provide forensic accounting skills to virtually any assignment, be it restructuring, investigations, valuations or otherwise.

We provide forensic accounting services in the context of:

• the investigation, analysis and reporting on allegations of mismanagement, theft and fraud (including Ponzi schemes);
• investigations in the context of applications for Mareva injunctions and Anton Piller orders; and
• assessing income for support purposes in matrimonial litigation proceedings, including allegations of understated and hidden income.
