Workplace Investigations
Our employment lawyers can help find the facts
When a complaint regarding mistreatment or misconduct at the workplace has been made, an employer has an obligation to investigate. Our employment law attorneys understand the importance of taking quick action on these matters. We conduct investigations for companies dealing with these types of complaints and help them get the facts.
At Gibson Law, LLC, we know how workplace issues can impact both employers and employees. Our employment lawyers used to represent employers for one of the nation’s largest law firms. We understand the importance of conducting a prompt and thorough investigation to identify and address problems before they turn into contentious legal disputes.
Some organizations choose to investigate these issues internally, but that can be a problematic approach. There can be a perception of bias, a complaint may involve a member of the management team, or the investigation will not hold up under court scrutiny. An investigation that is not handled properly can be very damaging to an organization.
