Litigation Support

The Law is something we live with every day and usually we don't need to give much thought to it. Unfortunately disputes arise from time to time and more and more of these can turn into potentially expensive legal issues. At these moments it is essential to seek proper help and advice. At Whiting & Partners we have experienced and specially trained accountants who can help you through these problems.

We are able to provide litigation support, both to you solicitor, and directly to the Court as an expert witness, in the following areas:

• Fraud (Civil and Criminal),
• Tax investigations,
• Professional negligence claims,
• Loss and damages claims,
• Commercial contractual disputes,
• Valuation disagreements,
• Matrimonial disagreements,
• Personal injury claims.

Our role is to assist you in determining precisely the matters at issue and to help quantify the financial redress. We are trained and experienced in writing reports and providing expert evidence to the Court. We advise on the suitability of alternative dispute resolution procedures, including whether mediation or arbitration may be suitable alternatives to litigation.
