What makes us different?

Grant Thornton distinguishes itself from its competitors in many significant ways
We operate perhaps the most successful forensic and investigation services unit in Ireland today. We have a specialist unit and the second largest forensic practice in the State. Our specialists are trained IT forensics specialists and first responders in law enforcement and commercial organisations.

Our core forensic team comprises of three experts (Paul Jacobs, Patrick D’Arcy and Andy Harbison) who have all provided expert witness testimony.

We have the skills, experience and depth to match the larger Irish accounting firms, without the potential conflicts and complications caused by these firms’ large audit and financial services groups.

We have a cross-disciplinary team of IT forensic and accounting experts; many of our IT forensics specialists are cross-skilled, making them far more effective than pure IT forensics specialists in conducting investigations in financial services firms.

Our team has worked extensively in the financial services sector both in Ireland and internationally. No private firm has greater experience of conducting IT forensics investigations in financial services companies in Ireland.
