Internal Investigations

When potential misconduct, compliance failures, or fraud surface inside a government contracting company, the manner in which the investigation is conducted can be as consequential as its findings. A well-structured internal investigation preserves attorney-client privilege, generates defensible findings, positions the company favorably with the government, and protects the organization from the downstream consequences of mishandled information.

Berry & Partners conducts internal investigations for government contractors on matters ranging from potential False Claims Act violations, procurement integrity concerns, and ethics hotline allegations to export control failures, cybersecurity incidents, and employment misconduct with government contracting implications.

We design investigations that are properly scoped, staffed with appropriately independent counsel, and conducted with the speed that government contracting matters typically require. We advise clients on voluntary disclosure decisions following investigation, and we coordinate with outside forensic, technical, and accounting experts when the matter requires it.
