THE PREVENE GROUP OFFERS PROACTIVE STRATEGIES
The PREVENE Group is a law specialty
group established to position companies to protect their reputation and their
assets from the devastation of criminal and significant civil liabilities by
addressing compliance issues with the prosecutor’s perspective. Recognizing
that prosecutors and federal agents look at issues differently than the business
community,
The PREVENE Group employs former federal prosecutors and agents to enhance
companies’ corporate
governance and compliance programs. With years of investigative experience,
The PREVENE Group brings the knowledge, insight and ability to look at conduct
and
issues from the prosecutor’s perspective and to identify, and stop, potential
criminal conduct before it starts. The former prosecutors and agents work with
lawyers
thoroughly engaged in the compliance arena to generate a culture of integrated
integrity-based performance by supplementing existing programs or completely
restructuring floundering programs.
The PREVENE Group, is also able to provide the independence needed for successful
compliance, and can offer not only the insight of prosecutors, but the
insight of
an outsider, unencumbered by real or imagined internal pressures or long-standing
company practices.
THE PREVENE GROUP ENCOURAGES EMPLOYEE COOPERATION
Fostering a culture of solid business ethics through employee engagement
and ownership is a cornerstone of The PREVENE Group methodology. In the corporate
environment, honest employees notice almost every instance of misconduct. Those
who believe they have information about a possible legal or policy lapse must
feel comfortable voicing their concerns. Likewise, employees must believe the
system can effectively investigate and address possible wrongdoing. Otherwise,
employee silence will permit misconduct to continue or employees will find
a person--and a process--they believe they can trust, often times a qui tam
lawyer,
the media, or the government. Cooperation is fostered in large part by convincing
every employee that the Board and management fully embrace the culture of compliance.
Engagement of The PREVENE Group as part of an effective compliance program
sends an unmistakable message that the company takes its corporate responsibilities
seriously and encourages employees to come forward early before real problems
arise. The PREVENE Group perspective gives corporate employees confidence
in the program's ability to effectively and appropriately resolve perceived
problems, while
deterring potentially misdirected employees by creating the expectation that
wrongdoing, if it occurs, will be quickly detected.
THE PREVENE GROUP CAN ADD
VALUE TO ANY COMPANY
Companies have been tarnished by the corporate fraud scandals
of the past few years. New regulations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act have not
generated the
hoped-for
consumer confidence. Clients and investors are still looking for the signs
which differentiate one company from all the rest.
The PREVENE Group can establish
a company as an innovative leader in corporate governance and shareholder and
client protection while creating significant confidence in the company and
its
financial reporting.
The PREVENE Group can ensure significant value by turning corporate compliance
into a competitive advantage. The PREVENE Group perspective brings a unique
knowledge and understanding internal compliance programs by themselves cannot
provide,
thereby reducing legal liabilities for the company’s bottom line.
The PREVENE
Group also enhances employee morale and productivity, while creating significant
public goodwill and improved community relations by demonstrating
the commitment to being an exemplary corporate citizen. This proactive step
will likewise strengthen a company’s relationships with business partners and
improve customer loyalty.
