Investigations

Global companies are under scrutiny from a wider range of regulators and prosecutors than ever before and the drivers behind enforcement actions are multiplying. Our multidisciplinary global investigations practice can help address these challenges wherever in the world they arise.
Investigations

Advising on complex, multi-jurisdictional investigations with technical precision and sensitivity

Our team includes former regulators and prosecutors and has successfully supported clients on over a thousand investigations. When serious challenges arise, you can rely on us to protect your business.

We engage regularly with major criminal and regulatory authorities worldwide. We know how they operate and anticipate their next moves to deliver the best possible outcomes for our clients.

Moving quickly to resolve investigations is crucial. We work from all angles to mitigate your risk, ranging from support in follow-on litigation and arbitration proceedings to the implementation of remediation measures.

We assess investigation risk holistically. This means we protect your immediate interests but also look ahead to map out and manage potential follow-on investigations in other jurisdictions and litigation risk—no matter the location.

In times of crisis, clients trust us to lead large-scale, time-sensitive internal investigations in highly-regulated industries with care and rigor.

As a multi-jurisdictional, multi-disciplinary team, we combine local expertise with global insights, with specialists in the US, UK, Europe, UAE, Singapore and China.

Our team holds extensive experience across investigations in many different areas. You can rely on us to address bribery, corruption, sanctions, money-laundering, fraud, tax, competition and any other significant misconduct issues you may encounter.

We understand that investigations often affect multiple aspects of a business—that’s why we cover all bases. Our expertise doesn’t only span core financial crime, but also employment, financing, market disclosure, tax and reputational risks.

Complex, cross-border matters are our specialty. We handle investigations involving enforcement agencies and regulators from multiple jurisdictions with skill and confidence.

Wherever you are based, and whatever the issue, we have the experience, reach and resources to support you.
