Fraud investigations in the workplace are challenging engagements that require focus and attention to the rights of suspects.  Knowing how to protect your client and your practice from claims and counter claims is critical to providing quality services.  In the seminar you should learn or recognize:

  • Why it is critical to involve an attorney experienced in employment law and fraud matters as well as an experienced fraud examiner at the inception of an investigation
  • The importance of understanding and maintaining privileges: attorney-client privilege, work-product doctrine, and joint defense.
  • The significance of accurately defining the scope of an investigation and managing client expectations
  • The importance of planning and educating clients on its significance
  • How to avoid activities that may trigger counter claims
  • How developing goals and objectives keep an investigation on-track to avoid  drifting into non-productive areas that can cost both you and your client
  • The critical components of reports to your client and factors that will shape the report
  • Issues of disclosure to governmental authorities
  • Recognize the importance of data verification to keep you out of harms way
  • Discover how the use of Computer Assisted Tools & Techniques (CATTS) analytical techniques and other investigative tools can increase efficiency and effectiveness
