Fraud and investigations work

Fraud is a criminal activity that will cause losses to your business, and possibly your reputation and future business prospects. Other irregularities can include mere sloppiness by staff, or weaknesses in systems, that allow errors to occur and money to be lost to your business.

If you suspect fraud or other irregularities in your business, we can bring specialist techniques to bear to investigate, document and corroborate the irregularities, in a way that will enable you to provide adequate evidence to a court or other tribunal.

We can also help you to recover past losses and prevent the future incidence of fraud or other irregularities.

If you or your business are wrongly accused of fraud, we can utilise similar techniques to provide evidence that will enable you to defend the allegations.

If you are a shareholder or a creditor of an insolvent company or individual we can investigate the past history of the company or individual to identify and irregularities that might enable you to pursue your claims. Alternatively, if a liquidator, administrator or trustee in bankruptcy makes accusations about your past dealings, we can help you defend yourself.

Due diligence

If you are buying a business or investing in an enterprise, you need to be assured that you know every detail about the business you are to become involved in. You need to know that there are no claims for litigation that are not provided for, that all past dealings have been proper and honest, that the accounts you are supplied with show the full picture, and that the business really does have full title to all the assets to which it claims to be entitled.

You will also need a business risk assessment to ensure that you are fully aware of all the risks that the enterprise might face.

Forensic work

If you wish to pursue or defend actions in the courts, you will need to have the evidence marshalled in a structured manner that can be placed before the court in a logical and understandable way. The evidence will need to be capable of verification to documents and other corroborating evidence.

We can help you with our forensic services.
