Questions about the application of generally accepted accounting principles to complex business transactions arise in many contexts: preparing financial statements, adopting a new accounting principle, responding to an SEC staff comment letter, defending prior conclusions in litigation or resolving disputes.

While well-versed in the technical language of financial reporting, we take pride in our ability to state our views simply and concisely. Importantly, we tailor our communication style to ensure that our views are transparent regardless of the accounting knowledge of our client.

Call on us to get our insight on the questions to ask and the alternatives to consider.
