Bankruptcy Expert Witnesses

Bankruptcy is a heavily litigated case. Experts may be required to assist the debtor in formulating a plan of reorganization, reviewing tax returns to determine if losses were properly utilized, reviewing payroll tax returns to confirm both business liability and potential civil penalties, as well as other forensic matters. An expert could also assist the creditors in reviewing the proposed plan of arrangement, reviewing of the debtor’s books and records to determine whether there have been any preferential payment to creditors or the business owners, or reviewing other aspects of the bankruptcy.
