The estimate is free. The recovery is real.

This is a benchmark estimate. A 30-minute confidential briefing tells you what is actually recoverable inside your contracts — or honestly, if there isn't enough to pursue.

This estimator is provided for informational and educational purposes only. All figures are illustrative, generated by applying published, independent industry benchmarks to the inputs you provide. They do not represent an offer, an appraisal, or a guarantee, and do not describe the results of any specific G&P Standards client. Actual recoverable amounts depend on your contracts, data quality, control environment, and contractual recovery windows, and may be materially higher or lower. Estimates are confirmed only following a formal scoping engagement. All figures are in USD and exclusive of applicable taxes. G&P Standards is an independent forensic recovery consultancy and is not a licensed public accounting firm; nothing here constitutes financial, legal, tax, or accounting advice.
