Case Study

Our client, the founder of major financial company, wished to make a large private donation to a charity. However, he was concerned about the reputation and history of the charity and its chief executive. Because he wanted to avoid any impropriety or scandal, he asked Rothman Consulting to investigate.

Our records search and discreet source inquiry focused on whether the charity or its CEO had ever faced any civil or criminal charges. We found no legal problems with the charity. However, the CEO had twice been convicted of driving while intoxicated (a criminal offense) and had also faced a civil lawsuit alleging sexual harassment.

Because of this information, our client decided against making the charitable donation. Our clear demonstration of the potential for bad publicity was a crucial aspect in the decision-making process of this donor who had wanted to support a charity that was above reproach.

Rothman Consulting handles sensitive personal investigations to avoid misleading, overstated or even defamatory conclusions. High net worth clients rely on our ability to context our research, giving them accurate answers to even the toughest questions.
