Both the CFE Prep Guide and the Fraud Examiners Manual state that every fraud examination must be conducted under the assumption that litigation will result. This ensures that evidence is collected and preserved properly, in compliance with legal standards:

“Each fraud examination should begin with the proposition that the case will end in litigation… If the fraud examiner assumes that litigation will occur, he will conduct the examination in accordance with the proper rules of evidence”.

This principle protects the integrity of the examination and ensures admissibility of evidence if the matter proceeds to court.
