Internal Investigation

Confidential, objective investigations into misconduct, policy violations and control failures.

Get to the Truth, Confidentially

When allegations come up, you need the facts before you act. Our internal investigation services provide confidential, objective fact-finding so leadership, boards and counsel can make informed decisions.

We scope the investigation with you and your attorney, review financial records and electronic data, conduct interviews and document what we find. You receive clear findings, along with recommendations to strengthen controls and reduce the chance of it happening again. If you suspect theft, see our fraud investigation services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should oversee an internal investigation?

Usually the board, the audit committee or outside counsel, not the managers involved in the allegations. Engaging the forensic accountant through counsel helps protect privilege.

When does an internal investigation make sense?

When there are allegations of misconduct, a whistleblower complaint, unexplained losses or concerns about how company funds are being handled. An independent review gives leadership facts to act on.

What do we receive at the end?

Clear, well-documented findings and recommendations, delivered to the board or counsel who engaged us.

Need an independent investigation?

Let's talk confidentially.
