Strategic Claim Response & Risk Mitigation for Agency Investigations
When an employee files a complaint with a regulatory agency such as the EEOC, California Civil Rights Department (CRD), or a state-level agency, your organization must respond swiftly, clearly, and legally. Our Position Statement Services are designed to help you investigate, draft, and defend your response with professionalism and legal precision.
We serve as a trusted third-party investigator or in-house support, depending on your needs. We guide you through the fact-finding process, interview key personnel, gather documentation, assess legal exposure, and ultimately prepare a comprehensive position statement that tells your side of the story—while addressing every legal element the agency is reviewing.
What’s Included:
-
Intake & Preliminary Risk Assessment
-
Internal Investigation Support or Full Management
-
Employee & Witness Interviews
-
Review of Policies, Practices, and Precedent
-
Drafting of EEOC/CRD/State Agency Position Statements
-
Response to Additional Requests for Information (RFIs)
-
Final Legal Review & Submission Guidance
Why It Matters:
Regulatory agency investigations are not just paperwork—they are legal proceedings. A poorly written or defensive response can escalate risk, trigger further audits, or weaken your legal position in future litigation. A professionally prepared position statement ensures your response is credible, consistent, and legally defensible, reducing the likelihood of a reasonable cause finding.
Protect your organization’s reputation and legal standing by responding with the right tone, facts, and strategy.
