“Forensic” as defined Webster’s dictionary means “pertaining to, connected with, or used in courts of law or public discussion and debate.” As such, it is to that standard and potential outcome that we as forensic accountants at A.M. Golden Accountancy Corporation follow. Forensic accounting encompasses investigative accounting and litigation support. At A.M. Golden as forensic accountants we are involved in both litigation support cases in which we assist attorneys in the calculation or estimation of economic damages and investigative accounting where we look into normal, abnormal, and potential fraudulent transactions and activities. Our approach is to provide an accounting analysis which includes evidence that supports our findings suitable to a court of law which will form the basis for discussion, debate, and ultimately dispute resolution. Our work includes a review of the books, records and accounting system that will often require our reconstructing accounts to determine damages caused by the abnormal activity or fraud. Our emphasis is on testimonial evidence that can be introduced in court. We also assist and work with our clients to prevent future fraud from occurring. In performing our work assignments we rely on our years of experience, education and training as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified in Financial Forensics (CFF) and Dipolmate of the American Board of Forensic Accounting (DABFA) to apply our knowledge of accounting, auditing, and investigative skills to uncover the facts, form opinions, and assist in the investigations.
