Testimonials

We act for a wide range of clients, including a number of insurance companies. One of our clients had received a claim in respect of a fidelity policy. Our client had a number of concerns, including possible deficiencies in the internal controls of the organisation that may have contributed to the quantum of the misappropriation. We engaged Forensic Accounting Qld to undertake an investigation. Steven Ponsonby and his team at Forensic Accounting Qld applied a methodical and detailed analytical approach and as a result, quantified the total of the misappropriation and determined that there were a number of deficiencies in the internal controls in place for electronic payments that contributed materially to the quantum of the misappropriation.
Thanks to the efforts of Forensic Accounting Qld our client was able to reject payment of the claim, resulting in a substantial cost saving.
I was impressed with the professional approach of Forensic Accounting Qld to undertaking this investigation, the detailed report provided and highly recommend Steven Ponsonby and his team at Forensic Accounting Qld.

"Steven Ponsonby comes highly recommended as a competent, insightful and experienced forensic accountant.
His professionalism and dedication is consistent with his growing reputation as an expert evidence witness of choice in Courts of superior jurisdictions within the field of forensic accounting, in particular complex fraud matters.
Steven has the ability to adapt his work and methodology when rapidly altered circumstances or instructions fall within his brief of engagement and his affable and courteous manner matches his commendable skills to greatly assist any professional relationship."

Steven's work helped us confirm a fraud that empowered us to act against the perpetrator. Steven was confidential, expert and unrelenting in discovering the facts. He met the deadlines we gave and his integrity gave us great confidence in his results. The only surprise was that the fee was so reasonable.

We suspected a fraud in our business by the administration manager and needed to engage the services of a Certified Fraud Examiner to investigate. We decided to engage the services of Steven Ponsonby from Forensic Accounting Qld to undertake the investigation. The investigation confirmed our suspicions. The fraud report prepared conveyed the evidence in a clear and concise manner, within a quick turnaround time, that greatly assisted the authorities in successfully achieving prosecution.

We were successful in achieving full restitution of the misappropriated monies and a custodial sentence was handed down for the various fraudulent transactions that were committed over a lengthy time period.

It was evident that Steven is very passionate about stamping out fraud in the work place, thereby stopping the knock on affects it has in the broader community. The professional fees charged by Forensic Accounting Qld were very reasonable and reflected the work required to be undertaken. I highly recommend Steven and his team to anyone finding themselves in a similar situation.
