Gil Soffer, managing partner of the firm's Chicago office, will moderate the "Investigations Galore: The New Normal" panel discussion at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, August 2. Panelists will discuss the increasing prominence and prevalence of investigations, from the corridors of power in Washington to towns, businesses and schools across the nation. These inquiries implicate all manner of public and private behavior—including interactions with police, sexual harassment and corporate misconduct—and often give rise to criminal prosecution, civil enforcement actions and employee discipline. The panel discussion will provide insight on the ethics, challenges and best practices of conducting investigations in today's heated environment.
