Introduction:-

Forensic accounting is the examination of fraud or financial manipulation through intensive research and analysis of financial data. Insurance claims, insolvency, divorces, embezzlement, fraud, skimming, and any other type of financial theft are all prevalent causes for the hiring of forensic accountants. You've probably heard the term "forensic evidence," which simply means proof that can be presented in court. As a result, the term "forensic accounting" refers to an analysis of financial facts that can be utilised to support a legal case.
