forensic accountants

Forensic accountants are financial experts who investigate and analyze financial records to uncover fraud, embezzlement, or other financial crimes. They apply accounting, auditing, and investigative skills to examine evidence, quantify economic damages, and often work with law enforcement or legal teams. Their work helps determine the truth in legal cases, disputes, or financial misconduct, ensuring accurate, factual information is presented in court or investigations. Essentially, they act as financial detectives, uncovering hidden or misleading financial activities to support justice and accountability.
