Businesses don't always have the time, resources, skills or wish to conduct detailed investigations and reports into disciplinary and grievance matters. If you've ever been involved in conducting them, you know only too well how gruelling they can be.

For disciplinary and grievance matters we offer an investigation and report service of a very high standard, conducted jointly by our lawyers and our HR consultants. We are very used to dealing with complex allegations of misconduct, discrimination, harassment and bullying, often with conflicting evidence. We will make recommendations on how or even whether to conduct the investigation and then interview all relevant witnesses. You will be provided with a high quality, impartial and analytical report, on which you can rely with confidence.

You will obtain:

• an objective, fair and thorough investigation process, working in accordance with your internal policies and best practice
• the benefit of both legal and HR specialist input
• a high standard of quality and attention to detail
• careful, impartial analysis and evaluation of the evidence
• a frank report, with a clear summary of the evidence and findings, and realistic recommendations

Your commission of an independent report by our experts will not only provide you with a high quality first stage to the disciplinary or grievance process but, more importantly, will usually significantly improve your organisation's legal position if the matter later proceeds to an Employment Tribunal.
