S&C has broad experience in conducting clients’ most sensitive and complex workplace internal investigations, including those stemming from allegations of discrimination, harassment, violations of corporate policy, information technology, compliance concerns, and violations of federal and state law. S&C is regularly retained by boards of directors and board committees in a variety of industries to investigate allegations of wrongdoing involving senior executives.
We have an established practice of discreetly and efficiently handling workplace internal investigations on clients’ biggest and most sensitive matters. We understand the external and internal business implications of this type of investigation, including its potential to disrupt employee productivity and morale, as well as its import to the company’s reputation with corporate partners, investors and customers.

We take a multidisciplinary approach to all matters and, where appropriate, tap into the expertise of our lawyers in the Firm’s Employment Law, Criminal Defense & Investigations, Corporate Governance, Bank Regulatory and Crisis Management practices.
In addition, the Group also advises clients in responding to the results of internal investigations, including advising on human resources best practices and conflict resolution.
