TLG Counsel Holly Peterson Quoted Extensively in New ASAE Article, “Do You Need an Internal Investigator? When things go awry among staff, volunteers, and attendees, it can be difficult to determine how to proceed. One legal expert shares some tips.”

TLG Counsel Holly Peterson was quoted extensively in a new ASAE article entitled, “Do You Need an Internal Investigator? When things go awry among staff, volunteers, and attendees, it can be difficult to determine how to proceed. One legal expert shares some tips.” The article begins, “There are few things an association executive dreads more than the prospect of an internal investigation. Accusations of workplace bias, embezzlement, misbehavior—it all spells expense, frustration, reputational harm, and disappointment. So perhaps it’s common sense that a leader’s shrewdest move is to get ahead of the problem. Earlier this month, Holly E. Peterson, counsel at Tenenbaum Law Group, which represents associations, wrote an article offering tips about how associations can handle investigations. In an interview, she notes that associations do best when they create an environment where an investigation doesn’t come to pass.
