In today’s complex financial environment, irregularities can be concealed within layers of transactions, systems, and reporting. Our forensic accountants specialise in cutting through that complexity.
Using advanced analytical techniques, detailed document review, and professional judgement, we reconstruct financial activity, identify inconsistencies, and reveal the full financial picture — even when information has been deliberately obscured.
Our role is not just to investigate, but to explain findings in a way that stands up to scrutiny.
✓ Forensic accounting is used to investigate financial irregularities such as fraud, disputes, hidden assets, financial misconduct, or inaccuracies in records. It is often required for legal proceedings, internal investigations, or high-risk financial matters.

Our forensic accountants bring extensive experience across financial investigations, regulatory matters, and dispute resolution. We understand both the technical accounting standards and the legal context in which forensic work is often used.
We take a structured, detail-driven approach. Through transaction testing, data interrogation, and financial reconstruction, we uncover patterns, anomalies, and inconsistencies that may otherwise remain hidden.
Where matters progress to legal proceedings, we provide clear financial evidence, structured reports, and expert support. Our findings are prepared to withstand legal scrutiny and can be used confidently in negotiations, mediation, or court.
We help identify fraudulent activity such as misappropriation of funds, false reporting, or manipulation of accounts. Beyond detection, we also advise on strengthening controls to reduce future risk.
Financial misconduct can expose businesses to financial loss and reputational damage. We support organisations in investigating concerns such as embezzlement, bribery, corruption, or breaches of fiduciary duty.
We trace the movement of funds and identify hidden or diverted assets, whether in commercial disputes, shareholder disagreements, or personal matters such as divorce proceedings.
Our forensic accountants assess complex insurance and loss-of-profit claims, verifying financial calculations, assessing legitimacy, and supporting fair and accurate settlements.
Beyond investigations, we provide forensic insight during due diligence, acquisitions, shareholder disputes, and high-risk commercial decisions — helping you identify potential financial risks before they escalate.
Forensic accounting is often triggered by suspected fraud, commercial disputes, shareholder conflicts, regulatory concerns, or personal financial matters. In these situations, a thorough, independent review is essential.
At Rothstone Accountants, we examine every aspect of the financial trail with precision and objectivity. If irregularities are identified, we clearly quantify the impact, explain available options, and provide impartial guidance on next steps.
Our focus is on accuracy, clarity, and resolution — helping you move forward with confidence.
