Seeking counsel
The use of external counsel, once an investigation or prosecution has been made official, received across-the-board support from participants in this survey. 77% of respondents considered it at least moderately important for external counsel to be involved at that point, with almost half of those considering it highly important. 14% reported feeling that external counsel would not be involved.
