    Here’s an extract from the website of “www.insidecareers.co.uk”

    “What is public practice?

    Public practices provide a variety of accounting and business services to clients. They are accountancy firms that offer fee-paying services, including:

    Audit
    Assurance
    Management Consultancy
    Tax
    Forensice Accounting

    A public practice firm’s accountants deal with the accounting and financial needs of a client whilst remaining independent from their client’s staff”

    Unfortunately, http://www.insidecareers.co.uk is not so smart that it could avoid two howlers on its webpage!

    “Forensice Accounting” should of course be “Forensic Accounting”

    and the sentence that follows the list of 5 services offered by public practices suggests that these publicly practising audit and accountancy firms have only one client each:

    “whilst remaining independent from their client’s staff” should, I believe, be
    “whilst remaining independent from their clients’ staff”

    OK?
