We aim to ensure that the evidence presented is:
Accurate
Complete
Consistent with the available evidence and the defendant's explanations
Sound in relation to the conclusions from the accountancy evidence
We also check to see whether the accounting evidence provides alternative explanations for the allegations advanced by the prosecution.
We are accustomed to the process of obtaining Legal Aid Agency funding and, unlike many firms, are prepared to undertake assignments at the applicable rates.
We also have considerable experience in providing expert opinion in relation to Confiscation Matters.
