商品簡介
The relationship between the family lawyer and the forensic accountant can be an effective weapon in the advocacy arsenal. Forensic accounting can help family lawyers win cases and help their clients keep money which might otherwise be taken from them by a difficult and confusing divorce process. Making complex accounting information and terminology easy to understand, this book provides a basic introduction to the core financial concepts in divorce, such as asset identification, classification, and valuation, income determination, and expenses. In clear, accessible language, author Miles Mason offers a step-by-step explanation of these how to mechanics while also exploring higher-level strategic concerns appropriate for high-asset and high-conflict cases. This unique guide connects the dots and fills gaps among the interrelated topics of subpoena practice, accounting concepts, depositions, methodology, financial statements, tax returns, testimony, evaluating experts' reports and qualifications, how to recognize "red flags" from a client, and how to effectively use financial data once you've obtained it in discovery.
