Forensic and Investigation Services

In early 2009, it was widely anticipated that the global recession would cause a new wave of disputes. Whilst some sectors have experienced an increase in the number of disputes, it appears that any real surge is still forecast to occur in the future. What is clear, however, is that in the post credit crunch era we will be working to a new set of rules. Mazars is well placed to undertake complex investigations and dispute resolution assignments throughout the world, and to facilitate positive resolutions.

Our Forensic and Investigation Services (FIS) team has extensive experience of providing high-quality, timely and cost-effective investigations, advice, expert reports and expert testimony on financial and accountancy matters, including:

  • Litigation and arbitration  – acting as party appointed, single joint expert or expert advisor in a host of litigation, English and international arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution procedures; and
  • Investigations providing authoritative and impartial advice in investigations and asset recoveries

We also offer computer forensic services including data collection, analysis, interpretation and reporting.

At Mazars we understand that success is built on genuine expertise. It is our practise to propose an assignment team that best fits the requirements of the case, whether that team comprises solely FIS specialists or combines the experience and expertise of our FIS team with that of other industry  specialists drawn from our Audit and assurance , Tax  or Advisory  service lines within our global firm.

The FIS team  has experience of undertaking assignments in a wide range of sectors including: inter alia, oil & gas, shipping, mining, telecommunications, intellectual property and royalties, pharmaceuticals, and financial services (including insurance).

We provide a practical and tailored approach to each assignment, and are sensitive to concerns over business disruption, confidentiality and reputation issues. The hands on, innovative and proactive approach of our partners ensures we thoroughly investigate and analyse your case to meet your needs. We present our findings as a written report or statement and, when required, in the witness box.
