Workplace Investigations

Investigations are a key tool for organizations to demonstrate compliance, prevent unsafe and discriminatory work environments, resolve workplace misunderstandings, and decide disciplinary action.

With extensive backgrounds in litigation and appellate practice, our attorneys and consultants have the experience and knowledge required to conduct thorough, impartial, and fair investigations. We have conducted investigations ranging from high level, high profile, and politically sensitive matters to more routine allegations of workplace violence, fraud, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and other policy violations. Our well-reasoned investigative findings can support a public entity’s actions if they are challenged in disciplinary proceedings or in state or federal court.

Our significant public sector experience allows us to work with our clients to determine the proper scope of each investigation and ensure compliance with all applicable substantive and procedural laws and rules, including due process requirements, the Public Safety Officers Procedural Bill of Rights Act, the Firefighters Procedural Bill of Rights Act, and applicable labor agreements.
