Brittany Shaulis has over 10 years of experience providing forensic and technical accounting services to both public and private-sector clients. She has extensive expertise across a broad range of industries, including pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, airline, banking, real estate, apparel, fitness, telecom, and professional services.

Most recently, Brittany was involved in the financial accounting investigation of a large pharmaceutical company’s acquisition of another large player in the industry. The review involved analyzing five years of accounting data to develop a lengthy list of IFRS accounting violations in more than 10 countries that led to the filing of a substantial report. Brittany was extensively involved in the recreation of the accounting data and analysis to determine the extent of the issues. Ultimately, the company was able to recover damages exceeding $314 million plus interest.
