Expeditious fact-finding reveals the truth

Nardello & Co. was engaged by one of the most high-profile companies in the world to investigate allegations that a senior executive candidate had committed a sexual assault. On short notice, Nardello & Co. mobilized a team of investigators to examine every aspect of the assault allegation. The exploration included witness interviews in the field, a detailed review of the prospective employee’s background, and an analysis of the accuser’s history to determine whether she had a record of lodging similar allegations. After a comprehensive review, the investigative team determined that the allegations were almost certainly false. The team also uncovered the accuser’s long history of making allegations against other high-profile employees in connection with requests for financial settlements. Armed with Nardello & Co.’s findings, the company stood its ground and hired the employee. The accuser did not pursue the matter.
