Large accounting firms often have a forensic accounting department. (Taken from Forensic accounting).

Forensic accounting used in large companies is sometimes called financial forensics. Forensic accountants combine knowledge of the law with their accounting skills. They can assess companies, and help companies resolve issues. This can help companies prevent corruption, fraud, embezzlement, etc. A forensic accountant performing an audit of a company should remain neutral. Large companies mainly use forensic accountants when performing audits; however, there are other uses for forensic accountants in companies.
