Practical brief for attorneys, paralegals, and business teams.

An audit may identify a question that cannot be resolved from records alone. Field investigation can help examine a specific location, practice, relationship, or representation.

A focused approach

Define what the audit team needs verified and how the observation will be used. Match the work to that question rather than describing a limited visit as a complete compliance certification.

Points to address

  • Specify the process or representation under review
  • Agree on the observation period and reporting format
  • Document the limits of the review

What the findings mean

Investigative findings supplement the audit team’s work. They should be integrated with the relevant records and professional analysis before broader conclusions are drawn.
