The Inside Investigations series continues with a session on the risks and opportunities that come with media attention in the context of investigations. Whether external or internal, investigations can function as a lightning rod for media attention – the scrutiny that brings can give rise to issues ranging from privacy concerns, through to managing privilege, and how to avoid prejudicing any proceedings that may follow.
In this digital session, Harry Eccles-Williams, Partner in the Reputation Protection and Crisis Management team and Christopher Gribbin, Managing Associate in the White Collar Crime & Investigations Team, discuss the risks that media attention can bring in the context of investigations, together with the opportunities, pitfalls and future trends to be aware of.
