Crowe Clark Whitehill has a long-established and well respected practice in forensic accounting, litigation support and investigations. We assist the legal profession, regulators, law enforcement agencies and other professional clients engaged in contentious and non-contentious work, by preparing expert financial information, analysis and reports for both litigation support and investigations.
With our concentration of expertise, we are fast becoming the leading firm of our size in forensic services. We have undertaken more than 1,500 cases, many of them high profile, in which we act as expert witness or adviser. This may be as a single or joint expert in:
- personal or corporate disputes
- civil or criminal matters
- arbitration proceedings
- regulatory tribunals
- Expert Determinations, via the President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales’ Appointment Scheme Alternative Dispute Resolution procedures.
Our world is becoming increasingly litigious. More and more companies and individuals are finding themselves involved in legal action either as claimant or defendant. Incidences of serious fraud have risen and, with advances in technology, criminals are becoming more sophisticated in their methods of defrauding businesses and individuals. Crowe Clark Whitehill’s Forensic Accounting team works in the UK and across borders, utilising the global presence and expertise of the Crowe Horwath International network.
Full use is made of the latest technology including data interrogation software. We are experienced in giving evidence in Court for civil and criminals matters, in arbitration proceedings and in regulatory tribunals. We are also experienced in providing Expert Determinations through the President of the ICAEW’s Appointment Scheme and assisting in Alternative Dispute Resolution procedures.
