Who needs a Forensic Accountant? Is it something I should consider?

In today’s times of complex business, coupled with the daily news full of stories about cases of fraud, deceit, trickery, breach of confidence, dishonesty, deception, cheating and untruthfulness, it is time to protect ones business and financial interests.

At A.M. Golden Accountancy Corporation, located in Carlsbad, San Diego County, CA, we provide professional and responsive forensic accountings services in litigation support cases and assists attorneys in the calculation or estimation of economic damages and loss profits. We assist attorneys in dealing with the financial issues related with marital dissolution and divorce. We perform investigative accounting services 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. It is important that we exam the transactions, by looking behind and beyond the transaction. Hence, the transactions are reviewed from all aspects to ensure that our interpretation of the financial information conforms to common sense and falls within a realm of business reality. At the conclusion of our investigation we must and do clearly present our report containing our findings in a manner that is simple, clear and understandable to a judge, jury or any lay person.

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 Valuation analyst (CVA), 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.
