PUBLIC AGENCIES

Serving:

  • Public Agencies Throughout the Country
  • Foundations and Institutions

Barrister professionals have among other matters, investigated fraud, waste and abuse, including allegations of discrimination, harassment, and conflicts of interest at some of the largest public agencies in the United States; multi-million dollar sexual harassment cases requiring in excess of 75 interviews; and allegations of municipal employees engaged in nepotism, misappropriation of funds and theft of time at a city located within Los Angeles County whose City Manager would subsequently be found guilty of graft and corruption.

Barrister has investigated in excess of 500 wrongful termination claims by employees; hundreds of internal thefts and discrimination cases for clients and organizations spanning from Fortune 100 and 500 corporations to special districts, public transportation agencies and other public entities. Barrister investigators each bring decades of experience investigating allegations of potential violations of federal, state, and/or municipal laws, regulations, and policies.

Barrister professionals evaluate each and every case on its merits, fact-gather, conduct discreet interviews, and collect evidence to provide clients with a comprehensive report upon which decisions can be made. We understand the serious impact allegations ignored can have on an organization’s employee morale; the risks that can amass; and the importance of demonstrating accountability and the appropriate use of taxpayer dollars government organizations must demonstrate.

Barrister professionals have expertise and experience in conducting equity investigations, with the ability to remain as neutral parties. Our investigators know how to deal with confidential and sensitive information, and work with a wide range of constituencies with diplomacy and tact. We act independently and exercise sound judgment, ensuring our public agency clients have confidence in the reports, findings and testimony we provide in every matter.
