Corporate Investigations
Discretion, precision, integrity.
Internal investigations fail on process, not on facts
An allegation surfaces. A manager reports a suspicion. An anonymous tip arrives. What happens in the next forty-eight hours determines whether the organization ends up with a defensible outcome or a second problem larger than the first.
Investigations conducted informally by people who were not trained for it tend to produce the same failures: evidence handled in ways that destroy its value, interviews conducted before the facts are understood, conclusions reached before the record supports them, and documentation that reads badly when it surfaces in a wrongful termination suit two years later. Meanwhile, word spreads internally, and the subject knows they are being investigated before anyone has preserved a single file.
Independence matters too. When the investigation is run by someone inside the reporting chain, the finding is contestable no matter how sound it is.

Experience that has been tested where it counts.

How an engagement works
Intake and scoping
We establish the allegation, the applicable policies, the stakeholders who must be involved, and whether the matter should be conducted under privilege.
Preservation
Relevant evidence — devices, accounts, records, systems data — is preserved before anyone is alerted to the investigation.
Evidence collection and analysis
Documentary, digital, and physical evidence is gathered and examined before interviews begin, so interviews are informed rather than exploratory.
Interviews
Witnesses and subjects are interviewed in a planned sequence, documented consistently.
Findings and reporting
A written report sets out the evidence, the methodology, and the findings — stating clearly what is substantiated, what is unsubstantiated, and what could not be determined. Recommendations are provided where requested.
