What is Forensic Accounting?
It’s expert examination, beyond the training of ordinary CPA and management accountants, for the purpose of answering questions about results, value, and fraud.
To be capable of providing this professional service, a Diplomat of the American College of Forensic Examiners must:
§ Recognize the application of general concepts and aspects of judicial procedure, discovery, and admissibility of evidence to forensic accounting work.
§ Administer the responsibilities of forensic accounting associated with the dispute process, including alternative professional standard.
§ Apply various investigative and information gathering techniques; document management and control, financial modeling, damage analysis, techniques to recover judgments and report development and delivery.
§ Manage litigation processes – expert witness testimony; maintain control during depositions and trials, develop strategies for maintaining control of the opposition; understand how to influence juries and prepare interrogatories and deposition questions.
