Learn moreWhy Specialist Forensic Accounting Matters in Divorce
Matrimonial Finance Is a Distinct Discipline
Divorce proceedings have unique financial complexities: non-matrimonial assets, special contributions, needs-based analysis, and the tension between fairness and arithmetic. A general accountant is not equipped for this.
Hidden Assets Require Forensic Expertise
When financial disclosure is disputed or incomplete, specialist forensic tracing is essential. Our experts have experience identifying concealed income, undervalued businesses, offshore structures, and artificial debt.
The Expert Must Survive Cross-Examination
A report is only as good as the expert who defends it. Our experts are selected for analytical rigour and resilience under questioning by senior family law counsel.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a forensic accountant do in divorce proceedings?
A forensic accountant in divorce proceedings provides independent financial analysis and expert evidence on matters including: valuation of businesses and assets, identification of hidden or undisclosed assets, income assessment for maintenance purposes, pension analysis, and review of financial disclosure for completeness and accuracy.
What is a Single Joint Expert (SJE) in financial remedy proceedings?
A Single Joint Expert (SJE) is a financial expert appointed by both parties jointly, or by the court, to provide neutral, independent financial analysis. Their report is used by both sides. SJE appointments are common in financial remedy proceedings in England and Wales under FPR Part 25.
What must an expert report contain under FPR Part 25?
Under FPR Part 25 and Practice Direction 25B (England & Wales), an expert report must include: the expert's qualifications, a summary of instructions, the substance of the facts relied upon, the expert's opinion and reasoning, a range of opinion where relevant, a summary of conclusions, and a statement of truth confirming the expert understands their duty to the court.
How do forensic accountants find hidden assets in divorce?
Forensic accountants investigating hidden assets in divorce typically review financial disclosure documents for inconsistencies, compare declared income with lifestyle expenditure, analyse business accounts for unexplained transfers or artificial expenses, trace cash movements, examine offshore structures, and use digital forensic accounting tools to reconstruct financial history.
How is a business valued for divorce proceedings?
Business valuation in divorce proceedings typically uses one or more of: earnings-based valuation (EBITDA multiple), asset-based valuation, market-based comparables, or discounted cash flow analysis. The method depends on the nature and size of the business. The expert must disclose the methodology used and justify the approach in their report.
