Privately held since its founding in 1983, A&M is a leading global professional services firm with over 7,500 professionals across five contents providing performance improvement, turnaround management & restructuring and corporate advisory services.

In the current economic climate, there have been an unprecedented number of business failures, financial frauds and accounting irregularities.
These and other events have resulted in regulatory interventions, investigations, financial restatements and a sizeable number of lawsuits.

Dealing with matters of a complex nature requires a broad range of skills & experience and our Disputes and Investigations (DI) practice has rapidly become one of the most respected in the industry.

From the boardroom to the courtroom, we deliver a wide array of solutions to contentious situations, drawing on the deep skills, diverse disciplines and experiences of our professionals who offer a unique ability to articulate complex findings in a clear and meaningful way.

Working as a partner to our clients by building consultative relationships you will develop an in-depth understanding of the client, the industry and the case to surface and address key issues, from the big picture to the smallest details.

You will develop and coach a team to help you in preparing and communicating your analyses, findings, and insights to the client.

Relying on your initiative and flexibility to deliver results in an agile and collaborative team environment, you will build strong relationships with clients, legal counsel, and expert witnesses.
