Primary Concentrations in Forensic Accounting

Investigative Accounting

It’s necessary for a forensic accountant to dig deep into the numbers and documents of a business whose practices are under scrutiny, as well as look at the atmosphere of the company. Often, these specialists will spend time onsite, collecting and assessing data. Much of the investigation will be executed via computer, so thorough computer skills and a high comfort level with software is important.

Primary Concentrations in Forensic Accounting

Litigation support

A forensic accountant must investigate all financial operations and prepare material with a view to using it in a litigation setting. This

component of a forensics accountant’s job is to provide the evidentiary support needed to prove guilt in a case, including

report preparation and insight into a company’s financial management. This material may be used by law enforcement agencies, prosecutors and parties to litigation. Many times, a

forensic accountant must appear in court to testify.
