Forensic Investigations

 

With an expanding economy white-collar crime a generic term to describe fraud, corruption, theft and other economic crimes; is a second cousin feeding on legitimate business to the benefit of criminal individuals and enterprises.  Research illustrates that white-collar crime is ever increasing at all levels of business and once it is suspected it must be eradicated as a matter of urgency, as left untouched, the damage can be extreme to any business venture.

Dispute Analysis

 

With business growth comes the ever present reality of disputes and it is unfortunate that often when these disputes arise the company does not have the expertise or capabilities to confront them.  With the timely and correct intervention, disputes may be prevented or their consequences mitigated.  Business activity by nature has these risks embedded which may arise from negligence, lack of agreement or understanding and even blatant misconduct.  

Our dispute analysis team is able to provide a range of expertise for example:

 

· Discovery of evidence and collection

· Quantification of losses and damages

· Alternative dispute resolution

· Expert witness testimony

· Litigation support and trial preparation
