Kreston Reeves Forensic Accounting is a specialist division of Kreston Reeves responsible for the provision of expert evidence, other forensic accounting investigations and business valuations whether as part of a litigation process or otherwise.

We were formed in 1990 to assist solicitors and, since then, we have prepared in excess of 1,500 reports and given evidence at trial on numerous occasions in civil, criminal and matrimonial cases throughout the UK. We receive instructions from solicitors ranging from sole practitioners to top ten firms. Additionally, we provide our services to insurers, government and similar institutions, limited companies, individuals, the police and many others throughout the UK.
