Resolving threats to business integrity

Internal fraud, abuse of position or misuse of confidential information can create serious exposure for any business. In addition to the management time and expense of dealing with the problem, the collateral issues of reputation, stakeholders’ perception, competitor exploitation and consequential regulatory risk, particularly for businesses that are subject to US long arm jurisdiction, are all critical considerations. A threat managed well can reinforce the business and the reputation of its leaders, and enhance shareholder value. Handled badly, it can destroy entire businesses.

Our team of specialists have many years' experience of helping clients navigate major internal issues.

We have for example:

  • Investigated the circumstances surrounding allegations of valuation fraud by an employee which exposed our client to material civil litigation and regulatory sanction
  • Investigated the circumstances surrounding the departure of large numbers of staff to a competitor in breach of their employment contracts and fiduciary and common law duties, and produced evidence to support civil action
  • Investigated allegations of procurement fraud by a senior employee and a number of third party suppliers over a protracted period
Our work supports that of the general counsel’s or finance director's office, often working in association with external legal counsel.



A US multinational was being sued by a corporation that claimed to have secured a billion dollar government contract on its behalf. Although the corporation, on the instruction of our client, had provided both political and market analysis, it had never been instructed to go further.
