Independent investigations that stand up.
When misconduct, fraud or a serious workplace concern cannot be examined credibly from inside the organisation, we establish the facts, protect the integrity of the process and deliver findings decision-makers can rely on.
An internal investigation can become difficult to defend.
When the investigator knows the parties, sits within the affected reporting line or ultimately reports to the person whose conduct is being examined, even a sound conclusion may be challenged if the process appears compromised.
An external investigator removes that conflict and creates a clear, reviewable record of how the allegations, evidence and responses were handled.
- Leadership, or someone reporting directly to leadership, is implicated.
- The accounts conflict and there is no neutral person to weigh them.
- Internal relationships or reporting lines make impartiality difficult.
- A dismissal, disclosure, recovery action or regulatory response may later be tested.
- The matter involves a whistleblower or protected disclosure requiring careful confidentiality.
Independent investigations for the matters that matter most.
We investigate suspected fraud, workplace misconduct, conflicts of interest and whistleblower matters for boards, executives, in-house counsel and business owners. Sensitive internal investigations are scoped deliberately, handled discreetly and reported with clear findings, evidence gaps and practical next steps.
Workplace misconduct & grievances
Fraud, theft & financial irregularities
Whistleblower disclosures
Conflicts of interest
Senior leadership matters
Regulatory & enforcement exposure
From allegation to findings.
Every investigation follows a deliberate process so the result can be understood, reviewed and relied upon by decision-makers and advisers.
Scope
Agree the allegations, questions, authority and reporting line so the investigation's purpose and limits are clear from the outset.
Preserve & gather
Secure relevant documents, messages, system records and digital evidence before it can be lost, altered or overwritten.
Interview & analyse
Test competing accounts fairly against the available evidence, document corroboration and identify where the evidence is incomplete.
Report
Deliver clear written findings tied to the evidence, including gaps and limitations, so conclusions can be traced back to what supports them.
Support
Brief the decision-maker and work alongside employment lawyers, external counsel or in-house legal teams on any next steps.
Clear deliverables. No surprises.
- An agreed written scope
- An evidence chronology and organised source material
- Findings tied to the evidence supporting each conclusion
- Evidence gaps and limitations stated plainly
- A decision-maker briefing
This is what you are actually buying: an independent, evidence-led examination that gives decision-makers a defensible basis for action.
We investigate and evidence; your advisers advise.
Integrity Solve investigates and evidences; we do not give legal advice. We work alongside employment lawyers, external counsel or in-house legal teams where engaged, giving them a clear evidentiary picture to build on.

The least cover, and the most to lose.
Small organisations with a confidential reporting channel, against larger ones. The control that catches the most fraud is the one they are least likely to have.

Smaller organisations carry the greatest exposure and the least cover. The reason is structural — they run on trust rather than controls, and one long-tenured, well-liked person ends up holding the books, the passwords and the payments, with no one revisiting oversight because it would feel like an accusation.
Frequently asked.
When should an organisation use an external investigator?
When the matter is sensitive, the facts are contested, the subject is senior or connected to leadership, or internal reporting lines make it hard for an insider to be seen as impartial. An external investigator creates a clear, reviewable record that protects the integrity of the process.
Can you investigate a senior executive?
Yes. Independence matters most when the subject is senior or connected to leadership, because an internal process can struggle to be seen as impartial.
What will we receive at the end?
An agreed written scope, an evidence chronology and organised source material, written findings tied to the evidence, plainly stated gaps and limitations, and a decision-maker briefing as arranged.
Do you work with our lawyers?
Routinely. We gather and test the evidence and deliver written findings; your lawyers advise on the decision that follows. Keeping those roles separate is what makes both defensible.
How is the scope and cost determined?
Every matter is scoped before work begins. Cost depends on the number of allegations, interviews, volume and condition of records, and whether digital evidence needs to be preserved or examined. We explain the proposed scope, deliverables and charging basis before the engagement starts.
