Litigation involving complex financial and economic issues requires compiling and analyzing large amounts of accounting, financial, statistical, and economic information which then must be summarized and presented in a clear and convincing manner. Attorneys rely upon LBMC to help them research, understand, summarize, and communicate those complex issues. Presenting our conclusions through meaningful reports, visual aids and effective expert testimony allows us to properly educate and advise counsel, client and the trier of fact.

We are involved in all stages of a case:

• Aiding in the preparation of interrogatories and requests for production of documents
• Researching and analyzing financial issues
• Assisting with preparation for depositions and trial
• Providing expert witness testimony

Our litigation support professionals are accustomed to rigorous cross-examination and our experience has given us insight into what triers of fact expect and need from a CPA in preparation for trial and in court. Areas in which we are called upon to provide forensic accounting services include:

• Commercial litigation and lost profits resulting from:
  • Breach of contract
  • Unfair competition
  • Trademark and tradedress infringement
• Royalty accounting
• Fraud and embezzlement
• Business valuations
• Partner and shareholder disputes
• Marital dissolution
• Reasonable Compensation Issues and Planning
