When money has gone missing, the investigation has to survive scrutiny in a courtroom, an insurance claim, or a regulator file. We build it to that standard from the first interview.
Fraud investigations fail for procedural reasons far more often than evidentiary ones. Evidence gathered without a defensible chain of custody, interviews conducted without proper caution, and analysis that cannot be reconstructed by a third party all collapse under challenge, regardless of what actually happened.
C&G conducts forensic investigations that combine financial expertise with investigative discipline. Our work is documented so it can be relied on by counsel, insurers, regulators, or law enforcement, and so that the conclusions can be traced back to the underlying records.
We work with businesses, legal counsel, insurers, and law enforcement agencies across Canada. Our investigators are certified fraud examiners and forensic accountants who have worked matters involving major Canadian financial institutions and federal and provincial enforcement agencies.
We define the allegation, identify the records and systems that matter, and get preservation in place before anything is lost or altered. This step decides whether the investigation is usable later.
Financial records, system data, and documents are collected with a documented chain of custody, working with counsel where privilege applies.
Transactions are reconstructed and tested, patterns identified, and losses quantified, with every conclusion traceable to source records.
Structured investigative interviews with witnesses and subjects, conducted and documented to a standard that holds up under challenge.
A written report setting out scope, methodology, findings, and quantification, plus ongoing support to counsel, insurers, or law enforcement as the matter proceeds.
Talk to us before you confront anyone or start pulling records. The first 48 hours decide what is recoverable.
