What the team is known for
FRP Advisory Trading has a strong forensic accounting practice with particular strength in matters relating to insolvency, fraud and arbitration. The firm is praised for having a tightly knit team that works closely to provide clients with expert advice, as well as a wide-ranging stable of experts to provide solutions to its clients.
Strengths
"An important element of top-level forensic accounting is the need for absolute confidentiality and the guaranteed secure handling of data - that is almost a given with FRP."
"The forensic team at FRP is excellent in everything that they do. The firm is highly professional and very experienced in complex litigation. The team there understands the pressure and volatility of high-profile litigation - which helps enormously."
Work highlights
FRP was appointed as liquidators to conduct a large-scale, high-profile investigation into the recent audits and ultimate insolvency of a large group of entities operating in the retail sector. FRP was engaged to assess the potential for legal claims to be brought for the benefit of creditors.
Notable practitioners
Chris Osborne is a deeply experienced financial investigator and forensic accountant. Disputes, fraud, bribery, corruption, regulatory enquiries, compliance and risk advisory assignments are all practice areas where Osborne has proven himself repeatedly to be an expert.
"Chris Osborne’s background in legal work is extremely helpful and is a particular strength when he is acting as an expert witness in forensic accounting because he understands the legal parameters within which he is working," confirms an interviewee. One source says: "Chris is one of only a few expert witnesses who has actually provided evidence at court for the private sector and has been tested on multiple occasions." "He's building an excellent reputation," states a market expert.
