11. A forensic accountant ought to be well worth the money.

A while back, when I was a paralegal, my first attorney had me go over the ledgers of a small company, because his client thought they were somehow hiding money. I am not an accountant, nor even a bookkeeper, but it was very interesting. It became clear after a while that the bookkeeper in this small company was incredibly ethical and honest.

In your case, he probably isn't all that ethical and honest, so someone with a lot greater knowledge than I have needs to be looking at things.
