• Authors: Ronnie Hoffman, Warwick Finney, Phillip Cox & Kathie Cooper
• ISBN: 978 1 921223 71 6
• AU$65.00   

• The Accountant as an Expert Witness is an insightful new book on forensic accounting.

• The book is a practical guide to help prepare any qualified accountant who may need to appear as an expert witness in a court or before a tribunal or forum.

• It will be of great value to legal practitioners who retain or train accountants for such appearances as well as for students studying
  forensic accounting courses.

• The Accountant as an expert Witness will also assist accountants in preparing for the possibility of court appearances as well as advising them on court rules and guidelines once called.

• Comprehensive contents and index sections enable quick reference and the convenient size of the book means that it can be easily taken to meetings, courtrooms and universities.

• At each stage of preparation and appearance as an expert witness, the reader is presented with guidelines, examples and checklists, plus explanations of what is required, where, when and why. A useful work of reference for the qualified accountant, for the lawyer who wishes to select and appoint an accountant as an expert witness, and for the ambitious student of either law or accountancy.

• The Accountant as an expert Witness covers important topics such as:
  1. The Federal Court's memorandum and guidelines
  2. Instructions to act - receiving, appraising and acknowledging instructions
  3. The Family Court - where the rules are sometimes different
  4. Phases of change - to both role and approach
  5. Case Studies - where problems have arisen
