The company and the individuals involved
The liability of a legal entity and that of its representatives are separate issues. We review the conduct attributed to the company and to individuals, including their roles, authority and decisions.
Organisation and internal records
Powers of attorney, minutes, internal procedures and correspondence help explain how decisions were made. We assess existing compliance documentation and its relevance without treating it as a guarantee against liability.
A defence suited to each party’s interests
We examine the scope of representation and the defence needs of each party. Where interests may conflict, separate representation should be considered. The strategy depends on the case file and the company’s actual organisation.
Useful documents for an initial discussion
- Notices addressed to the company or its representatives.
- Relevant powers, organisation charts and resolutions.
- Internal records related to the allegations.
