Our Investigative Due Diligence Services

We assist fund of funds, financial institutions, private equity firms, endowments, institutional investors, high-net worth individual investors, and their legal counsel in identifying and avoiding risks by exposing the concealed elements of prospective transactions and relationships.

Our professionals determine the necessary scope of our due diligence research and provide clients with the most meaningful information available, alerting clients to risks, disclosure issues and potential negotiation points.

Due Diligence Investigations: Approach & Methodology

Our professionals verify the information we receive pursuant to an investigation, and evaluate that information for accuracy as well as to identify errors, omissions or misrepresentations. Working with our clients, we employ a variety of techniques that include communicating with third parties and conducting interviews. Our skilled professionals have significant experience conducting corporate and private investigations, and draw upon former backgrounds in federal law enforcement to effectively conduct field interviews and discussions with appropriate individuals.

We access and review public information as well as large-scale databases for property ownership, investments, and other information in order to create a comprehensive background on a subject. Our team evaluates the information produced by our research to detect anomalies or inconsistencies, recognize patterns of corporate or individual behavior, identify risk-relevant issues, and determine whether additional research is warranted. Communication is key. We regularly communicate investigative results with our clients and advise on risks, potential mitigation and other meaningful information that can assist our clients in making informed decisions about prospective business relationships.
