Forensic Accounting and Financial Statement Restatement Services

In investigations involving disputes, allegations of fraud, regulated enterprises, and distressed businesses, clarity is essential to navigate uncertainty and achieve resolution. Our specialized forensic accounting services are instrumental in uncovering the root causes of financial distress, including fraud, mismanagement, or accounting irregularities, providing a clear and objective view of a company's landscape.

Our team brings deep expertise in the analysis and reconstruction of financial statements, enabling us to identify trends, detect inconsistencies, and flag operational or financial red flags, including signs of manipulation or misstatements.

We provide guidance on restatements of previously issued financial statements due to fraud, accounting errors, misapplication of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), or outdated accounting standards. When restatement is necessary, we assist clients in:

  • Identifying the underlying cause of the misstatement
  • Quantifying its financial impact
  • Evaluating the effectiveness of internal controls
  • Recommending remediation strategies
  • Providing expert testimony in court and regulatory proceedings
Investigaciones por fraude

Our experts play a critical role in uncovering fraudulent activity within financially distressed businesses, delivering actionable insights to lenders, creditors, legal counsel, and regulatory authorities.

We apply advanced investigative methodologies and technologies to trace assets, analyze financial records, and assess the legitimacy of transactions. Our team is experienced in identifying a wide range of fraudulent schemes, alter ego structures, substantive consolidation, embezzlement, lapping, Ponzi and pyramid schemes, and asset misappropriation, helping to ensure compliance, protect stakeholder interests, and maximize recoveries.

We are adept at identifying fraudulent transfers under the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (UFTA), providing expert opinions on fair and reasonably equivalent value, insolvency, and the magnitude of transfers.

Asset Search, Tracing, and Recovery

Our turnaround and restructuring experts specialize in identifying and recovering misappropriated or hidden assets in distressed business environments.

Using advanced data analytics, financial modeling, and investigative techniques, we trace complex asset flows across jurisdictions and entities. We work closely with legal counsel and stakeholders to support recovery actions, including analysis of fraudulent transfer claims and enforcement of judgments. Our deep understanding of insolvency and bankruptcy frameworks ensures that asset recovery efforts are strategic and defensible.

Litigation Support and Expert Witness Services

In litigation involving distressed and insolvent businesses, our experts draw on decades of forensic accounting and investigative experience to deliver clear, objective, and defensible testimony in complex financial disputes.

We support clients and counsel with detailed analyses, expert reports, and testimony related to insolvency, fraud, economic damages, financial misconduct, and other areas of financial distress. Legal counsel trust our experts to deliver thoughtful, independent insight, translating complex financial issues into simple, understandable narratives.

Post-Acquisition / M&A Disputes

We provide independent financial analysis to resolve disputes arising from acquisitions, mergers, and restructurings, including valuation disagreements, earn-out disputes, and breach of representation claims.

Our experts assess whether transaction terms were fair and equitable, quantify damages, and evaluate post-deal financial performance. We investigate allegations of financial or operational misrepresentation, hidden liabilities, or accounting irregularities that may have impacted deal value.

Regulatory Inquiries and Corporate Investigations

Our team supports distressed businesses facing regulatory scrutiny by conducting independent internal investigations, preparing response strategies, and advising on compliance enhancements. We provide guidance in Director and Officer (D&O) investigations, board advisory, and ongoing risk assessments to identify gaps and mitigate exposure.

Our experts are experienced with inquiries from the SEC, FTC, CFTC, and other regulatory bodies, ensuring that findings are delivered with precision and credibility, while helping clients minimize reputational and financial risk.
