Investigations & Regulation
“Suzanne and her team give you, as a client, the confidence and reassurance you most need in the difficult and stressful circumstances of potential litigation.” Legal 500 (2022-23)
“Effective, on point and flexible. Clear, concise and consistent. They always get back to me in time, explain fees and upcoming schedule and are clear and direct if I don’t understand something.” Legal 500 (2022-23)
We conduct investigations into matters arising from discrimination and from disputes within partnerships. We also produce reports on gender pay gaps and problems of progression and retention.
Where a dispute arises in the context of employment or partnerships, or where an allegation of discrimination, harassment or misconduct has been made, we can investigate independently on behalf of companies, organisations, and victims. We also assist victims in managing any internal processes, and can provide tailored reports for institutions on their progression and diversity matters. We believe we are seen as truly independent, and will only ever act if genuinely conflict-free.
Farore Law can also advise people whose allegations or treatment have been brought to the attention of the regulatory authorities. As such, we can advise on the regulatory process from the investigation stage onwards. We can also represent clients at any hearings convened by regulators.
We have advised and produced reports for a number of fellow law firms and barristers’ chambers on their diversity practices.
Suzanne McKie KC has advised on a wide range of matters governed by the FCA, SRA, BSB, GMC, and other regulatory bodies, and has represented many clients taking part in the regulatory proceedings of those organisations.
Farore Law can advise regulatory bodies, companies, law firms, and chambers. Our team can investigate matters on their behalf where there are concerns about diversity, if a “health check” is desirable, or where one or more allegations of discrimination, harassment, or misconduct have been made or where a dispute arises within a partnership. Our significant forensic ability and experience in financial and legal institutions makes us the perfect choice for managing the process of investigations.
