White-Collar / Internal Investigations
Internal investigations are in-depth inspection processes carried out in companies for the purpose of examining suspicions of improper conduct, regulatory violations, or any other failure that may harm the conduct and stability of the company, its reputation, its legal status, or its financial situation.
Through internal investigation, companies can discover material information, mitigate risks, and implement fixes ahead of time and before regulatory authorities are involved in the matter.
