I have a client that is a member of a two person partnership. She has reason to believe that the other 50/50 partner has been mismanaging the partnership and would like to hire me to inspect the books,returns,etc. to confirm or deny her beliefs.
My question is, what kind of engagement would this be considered for me? Would I still need an engagement letter? Would it qualify as an audit if it's only to inspect the books for any errors affecting my client?
Lastly, the other partner is not on board with this audit. Will probably not sign any engagement letter but will provide the information needed
