REPUTATION AND CRISIS MANAGEMENT

You are sitting in your office one bright morning and the Receptionist runs in. His face is pale. He tells you there are nine people standing in your Reception area. They have what looks like a court order and they want to talk to you. Right now. It’s a raid. They inform you they have a right to conduct a full search of your offices for as long as that takes. They could stay all week. They say they have the right to walk out of your business with all the computer servers, laptops and hard copies of the files that your business depends upon. They want everyone’s smart phone handed over and the passwords to all devices provided. They tell you they have the right to do what they are doing and that you have no choice but to cooperate. That’s when you call Veinotte Mittal Litigation. We will send someone to your business right away. Upon arrival, we analyze the order. We identify what can be done and what cannot be done in your premises. Maybe the Raiders have the right to do what they’re doing. And maybe they do not. If not, we refuse them entry and ask them to leave. After that, we go to Court on very short notice to argue for your privacy and the confidentiality of your business records..
