Our Firm
We are a leading Canadian boutique specializing in damages quantification, business valuation and forensic accounting. Our founding principals – Farley Cohen, Ross Hamilton and Peter Steger – are all former practice leaders of major international consultancies who saw extensive organizational procedures and conflicts hindering their ability to deliver top client service.
The tight focus of a boutique structure allows CHS to concentrate on clients, not leverage.
We have assembled an experienced team of specialists that brings a thoughtful and collaborative approach to analyzing the key drivers of any financial dispute. Our size allows us to be nimble; and while your business operations may span the globe, our partners are all in the same time zone. So when time is short we can do conflict checks and possibly get started the day you call.
We are as proud of our independence and our objectivity as our expertise. We do not perform financial statement audits, tax or operations-consulting work, which ensures we are truly neutral. We are regularly retained by both plaintiff and defence counsel as well as corporations and are also free to perform as expert witnesses for the court.
In short, we combine big-firm experience with boutique-firm client focus. That’s who we are.
