Successful Workplace Investigations:
Sherman Law Corporation is often retained either by the employer to direct an attorney-client confidential workplace investigation that is conducted either internally by the employer, by the firm, by an independent investigator, or to serve as the independent investigator. While the issues have run the gamut, Sherman Law Corporation has been involved in investigations that included:
- sex, race, national origin, disability, medical condition-based harassment, discrimination, retaliation, demotions, transfers, promotions, termination and constructive discharge claims,
- theft, misappropriation of trade secrets, violation of confidentiality, privacy, interference with contractual relations and prospective economic relations
- hiring related claims
- violation of Company policies
- misconduct
- fraud
- professional or licensing issues
- ethics violations
Investigations have resulted in a variety of findings, corrective actions, and results. These have included full resolutions of the claims, with the complainant that resulted in a separation agreement, voluntary dismissal of claims, and various other resolutions that were satisfactory to both parties.
