Prompt, thorough, Impartial

Investigations

In almost any organization there will be, at some point, situations where someone believes  their rights were disregarded or policies were not applied fairly. The fallout can cost an organization a backbreaking price in financial and emotional resources. Winning a claim can turn on showing that a prompt, thorough investigation was made. Investigations can also be an excellent tool for discovering problems and preventing their reoccurrence. Richwood Investigations are conducted with an eye to reducing the likelihood of litigation and addressing problems so they can be avoided in the future.
