Forensic Accounting assistance to Lyn Van Kampen

"You have been terribly kind and helpful which is so rare these days.

So I just wanted to say thank you so much. If ever anyone ever needs a forensic accountant, I will definitely be singing your praises from the highest mountain.

Thank you so much for taking time to respond to me always and making me feel better, even though I could never get what I needed. You are a special human being."

I can say that in my clients most desperate need for swift and reliable expertise in the area of forensic accounting and reporting, Steven made himself and his team available around the clock to ensure that the Court received the most compelling and objective forensic report on the state of my clients’ financial health. This played a significant role in securing my clients future. Steven and his team can only be commended for the exceptional professionalism they displayed in doing what needed to be done in what can only be described as very strict timeframes.

I have had the opportunity of retaining Steven Ponsonby to value businesses on a number of occasions. As a family lawyer I deal with price sensitive clients who are often closely acquainted with the businesses that Steve must look into. I require a valuer who can communicate clearly and in detail, who can field client queries and who can respond quickly and succinctly.

In my experience, Steve provides that service. In each matter which I have retained Steve, I have received a detailed report in quick time, at the price quoted (which itself is literally half that of the competition). Most importantly for me, my clients were content with the service, even when they did not get the result they were looking for. That they accepted the report is evidence in itself of Steve's clear and complete approach to the valuation and his excellent communication style.

We used Steven's forensic accounting skills to assist two clients who were facing deregistration by the Building Services Authority .

Steven produced a comprehensive, clear report which showed exactly what it was intended to, and was highly persuasive in demonstrating to the BSA that our clients had acted reasonably in their dealings with the failed company.

The desired result was achieved, at a cost which the clients felt represented a good investment in protecting their ability to continue to trade as builders.
