Litigation Support
Expert forensic accounting, financial analysis, and testimony to support legal teams in dispute resolution, damage calculation, and investigation.
The Stakes in Financial Litigation
When legal disputes involve financial matters, the outcomes depend on the quality of the analysis behind them
Partner & Owner Disputes
A lawsuit from a former partner, spouse, or associate requires clear financial evidence and rigorous documentation. Resolving these matters depends on analysis that holds up under cross-examination.
Marital Dissolution Cases
Marital disputes require independent, verifiable financial analysis to divide assets and determine support obligations. Courts rely on CPA-prepared documentation to ensure fair outcomes for both parties.
Grant Compliance Clawbacks
Government entities may retroactively challenge grant compliance and seek to reclaim funds. Defending against clawback claims requires forensic analysis of grant accounting and expenditure records.
Economic Damage Quantification
Calculating economic damages requires rigorous methodology, documented assumptions, and analysis that holds up under cross-examination. Inaccurate quantification undermines the entire case.
