Special Investigations

Our Special Investigations unit handles cases that extend beyond routine inquiries—matters involving high-value stakes, cross-border elements, sophisticated concealment, or sensitive reputational concerns. These investigations require a multidisciplinary approach, blending legal awareness, advanced intelligence methods, and discreet field operations to uncover the truth where others cannot.

We design every special investigation around the unique needs of the client, ensuring precision, confidentiality, and actionable outcomes.

• Corporate & financial crime – Embezzlement, corruption, procurement fraud, and complex white-collar investigations.
• High-profile litigation & disputes – Independent fact-finding in cases with public or regulatory scrutiny.
• Government & regulatory matters – Compliance breaches, contractor vetting, or allegations of misconduct.
• Sensitive personal cases – Blackmail, extortion, harassment, or reputational threats.
• Cross-border investigations – Tracing assets, people, or transactions across multiple jurisdictions.
• Crisis events – Response to whistleblower claims, internal scandals, or major reputational incidents.

Special Investigations demand the highest level of discretion. All assignments are executed within the bounds of the law, with strict respect for confidentiality and admissibility standards. We do not use pretexting, hacking, or unlawful surveillance.

• Corporate embezzlement: Identified diversion of company funds through offshore entities; evidence supported civil recovery and criminal referral.
• Executive scandal: Conducted discreet investigation into allegations of misconduct; findings allowed board to take decisive and defensible action.
• International fraud: Traced assets moved through layered shell companies across three continents; client recovered funds through coordinated legal action.

How is a “special investigation” different from your other services?
Special Investigations are complex, bespoke, and often sensitive assignments that don’t fit neatly into asset tracing, background checks, or standard litigation support. They require tailored strategies and multidisciplinary expertise.

Do you handle politically sensitive cases?
Yes—we have experience with high-profile, high-risk, and reputationally sensitive investigations.

Can you operate internationally?
Yes—our global networks and on-the-ground resources enable discreet investigations across jurisdictions.

Is confidentiality guaranteed?
Absolutely. These are often the most sensitive matters we handle, and confidentiality is paramount.

When the stakes are high and the situation demands more than a standard investigation, our Special Investigations team delivers clarity, discretion, and results.
