Prepare the scope

Three questions to make the first conversation useful

  1. 01

    Which process, risk, allegation, period, and decision are in scope?

  2. 02

    Who owns the source records, system access, and evidence preservation?

  3. 03

    Does the work require legal privilege, regulatory reporting, or an independent expert?

Professional boundary

Investigations and regulated compliance work require a defined mandate, lawful evidence handling, and coordination with legal or licensed specialists where needed.
