Practitioners must know the landscape in jurisdictions in which they do business. Local legal advice will almost inevitably be required. This second edition, revised and updated with three new jurisdictions covered, shares best practices for corporate internal investigations with robust localized guidance. In addition to the fundamentals of conducting an internal investigation, the reader will learn what legal and cultural nuances should inform investigations in a given jurisdiction. All chapters follow a parallel structure, including a summary of key recommendations at the end, to facilitate easy reference by busy counsel.
