When organizations utilize their standard processes to address allegations of sexual misconduct, they often lack the broader perspective that is required to thoroughly address the legal, reputational, and organizational challenges that can arise.
Boies Schiller Flexner attorneys have significant experience advising on these complex and highly sensitive matters, and we leverage the knowledge we have gained on these types of cases as trial lawyers and former prosecutors to represent our clients in connection with litigation, investigations, and compliance work related to sexual misconduct allegations.
Our collective experience informs our approach to conducting investigations and managing litigations for corporate clients, allowing us to uncover truths that are often overlooked. Our attorneys’ comprehensive, first-hand knowledge gives us the skills to help corporate clients truly understand what is happening inside their businesses, and we lead independent, internal investigations to determine what went wrong and implement appropriate and effective remedial measures.
With a growing emphasis on this area – as seen in recent legislation to extend statutes of limitations for some sex abuse victims – we are also well placed to help companies gain a deeper understanding of how to build better compliance structures within their organizations.
