 There can be many instances where you may want to use the services of a forensic accountant and not just in situations that end up in Court. However, it is often advisable to keep all options open in the first instance. The matter in question may simply be one of a simple misunderstanding of the known facts but with an added concern that there may be something more damaging still to be identified. Alternatively, there may be a dispute over the facts which may already have caused loss. In more serious matters fraud may have been identified or suspected. In some cases, doing nothing can be a viable and even the preferred option but this should always be an informed decision based on all the facts. In doing so, you may be able to simply walk away and move on. However, are you sure of all the facts? Have you identified all the issues? Have you considered all your options? Are there any other complications, for example tax? Whilst most engagements are unique, in almost every case it is imperative that a damage limitation exercise is implemented as soon as possible. This may require some remedial steps to be taken immediately, in other circumstances a more discreet approach may be adopted. |
