The current forensic offering is a good blend of expert, fraud/investigations and Ftech/cyber, and expansion will be primarily London focused, with an emphasis on disputes. The team work as a single P&L and as such share resource ,and Partners have considerable strategic autonomy in this "light-touch" firm.
