Charlotte Forensic Accounting Experts Help Businesses Protect their Interests

North Carolina forensic accounting firm helps support commercial litigation, quantifies economic damages, and investigates financial fraud

Charlotte, NC is much like the panther mascot of its pro football team: a stealthy cat, whose hunting prowess is underrated, but impressive. Charlotte has grown quietly over the last several decades to be the most populous city in the Carolinas and the sixth largest in the American South. The city’s success is not just a matter of demographics; Charlotte has flourished economically, attracting major banks and numerous tech companies. Wells Fargo, Bank of America, and Truist are Charlotte’s biggest financial catches, but Ally Financial, U.S. Bank, TD Bank, and Silicon Valley Bank have also fallen into Charlotte’s web, making her the second largest banking center in the United States after New York City. With that ranking come high standards for performance and consequences when performance falls short.

North American Forensic Accounting PC offers expert services that aid in commercial litigation, insurance & contract disputes, financial fraud investigation, and much more. Our certified experts draw on decades of experience related to forensic accounting, business valuations, investigations, risk management, and compliance. This expertise enables us to support various types of commercial and civil litigation, advise on transactions, test regulatory compliance, and assess risk.

Industry-specific knowledge drives in-depth inquiries

When performing services, our goal is to uncover details that might escape the notice of other professionals. Our team has had advanced training in all areas of our practice, but we also have industry specific knowledge in a number of business sectors, that include:

  • Insurance
  • Transportation and warehousing
  • Manufacturing
  • Construction
  • Retail
  • Pharmacy
  • Legal
  • Nonprofits entities
  • Banking and finance

Our practical experience enables us to scrutinize business records more critically and perform revealing interviews with your staff. In this way, we bring vulnerabilities to light, so we can propose effective remedies.

It’s impossible to engage in commerce without an occasional dispute. But when such disputes occur, you’ll quickly learn that Charlotte is not Mayberry. Your company might find itself up against a powerful corporation bent on winning at any cost. Your litigation will then be time-consuming and expensive, so your strategy must include a cost-benefit analysis. The forensic accounting experts at NAFA are ready to help with that task and many other litigation concerns. We have extensive experience in a wide range of legal disputes, such as:

  • Insurance claim disputes

In business, growth is the name of the game. When you set your sights on a business for acquisition, you need a reliable estimate of its value. NAFA performs trustworthy business valuations.

NAFA internal audit and consulting services help improve compliance and manage risks

After decades of experience, our NAFA experts have concluded that the greatest threats to sustained growth and prosperity come from within an organization. Poor process controls, lax ethics, and unenforced standards open the door for unscrupulous activity and unproductive behavior. For these reasons, many of our services focus on managing risk and implementing compliance and ethics programs. We know from experience that progress in these areas will deter fraud, enhance compliance with complex regulations, and add to the bottom line.

NAFA provides a range of services to improve your risk and compliance profile, such as:

  • Sarbanes-Oxley testing
