What We Do
There is growing pressure for businesses to bear the cost of investigating themselves, through what is known as an ‘internal investigation’.
This can help avoid any investigations by external agencies, which can take time and disrupt your business.
Our team are experts in corporate investigations and can help you conduct an internal investigation, or assist you when responding to a regulator or law enforcement agency.

If consulted early enough, we can also assist with internal audits, training and provide compliance advice to prevent a company becoming the victim of financial crime.

- Reporting to prosecutors and regulators
- A deferred prosecution agreement
