Forensic & Investigative Accounting
Independent Financial Analysis When the Facts Need to Be Established
When the financial picture is unclear or disputed, the answers are often found in the records. Through our forensic and investigative accounting services, Albert Gelman Inc. reviews financial history, clarifies what happened, and presents findings clearly and objectively. We are engaged where parties have competing views, transactions require explanation, or a court, lender, board, owner, or legal counsel needs reliable independent analysis.
Our work is grounded in a disciplined, court-ready approach similar to that used in formal appointments. We simplify complex financial information so decision-makers can proceed with confidence.
Where We Help
- Disputes: Addressing conflicts between shareholders, partners, creditors, or other stakeholders where financial records are central.
- Transaction Review: Analyzing or reconstructing transactions to understand what occurred and whether value was affected.
- Financial Conduct Questions: Reviewing financial actions, records, and decisions involving businesses, assets, or stakeholder interests.
- Asset Tracing: Examining assets and transactions, including matters involving fraudulent conveyance or transfer concerns under applicable legislation.
Our Process
- Secure and review relevant financial records.
- Reconstruct transactions and identify discrepancies, unusual activity, or unexplained movements of value.
- Quantify the financial impact where the records support that analysis.
- Report findings clearly and impartially, with documentation that can support negotiations, settlements, or court proceedings.
We combine investigative discipline with senior accounting judgment, delivering analysis that is clear, objective, and capable of withstanding scrutiny. We operate discreetly, act promptly, and, where a formal appointment or recovery process is required, can also fulfil those roles.
