Reliable Company Investigation Services
A corporate private investigator does more than gather evidence. At Veritas, our role begins well before a single interview takes place. We work alongside boards, CEOs, and legal counsel to scope the investigation properly, identify the right lines of enquiry, and establish terms of reference that protect the process from challenge.
As one of the trusted providers of workplace investigations in NZ, we ensure every engagement is built on a sound framework from day one. Our corporate investigation consulting services cover matters including:
Internal fraud and financial misconduct
Conflicts of interest and corruption allegations
Intellectual property theft and data breaches
Procurement irregularities and supply chain concerns
Senior executive conduct and governance failures
Regulatory compliance breaches
Workplace investigations
Every business investigation we undertake follows a structured methodology, one that's been tested across hundreds of engagements and refined by decades of operational policing at the highest levels.
Both Richard and Dave are independent workplace investigators who’ve completed hundreds of investigations. With a pragmatic and engaging style, they ensure a professional, fair and compliant result. Veritas Investigations helps business owners and boards to find the truth, retain their best people, get things right, and minimise litigation risk.
Why Organisations Choose Veritas for Corporate Fraud Investigation Services
Fraud-Specific Investigative Capability
Our team has led investigations for complex financial fraud and organised crime operations at the highest levels—experience that translates into knowing where to look, what to seize, and how to unravel concealment patterns that less experienced investigators might miss when providing workplace investigation services for businesses.
For any company investigation involving financial misconduct, that depth of operational experience is the difference between a report that holds up and one that gets pulled apart.
Discretion Under Pressure
A corporate investigation can unsettle an entire organisation if not managed carefully. We work closely with your board, CEO, or legal counsel to control the flow of information, manage internal communications, and conduct interviews without creating unnecessary disruption.
Our AWI-certified methodology ensures procedural fairness at every step—protecting both the integrity of the investigation and the rights of all parties involved.
Evidence Built for the Courtroom
Every finding we present is backed by evidence prepared to a standard that survives cross-examination. Our reports serve boards making governance decisions, counsel preparing litigation strategy, and regulators assessing compliance—all of which form a single, independent evidence base.
Where matters escalate to the Employment Relations Authority, criminal proceedings, or regulatory review, our investigators are experienced in providing expert testimony and supporting barristers through the evidential process.

Frequently Asked Questions About Business Investigation
When should an organisation engage a corporate fraud investigator?
The earlier the better. If financial irregularities, misconduct allegations, or compliance concerns have been raised—whether through a formal complaint, whistleblower report, or internal audit—engaging a corporate fraud investigator promptly ensures evidence is preserved and the process is handled correctly from the outset.
Delays in engaging an investigator can result in evidence being lost, compromised, or challenged.

Workplace investigations
Internal fraud
Conflicts of interest

Are your investigation reports admissible in legal proceedings?
Yes—our reports are prepared to evidential standards and are designed to withstand scrutiny in court, the Employment Relations Authority, and other tribunals. Our team holds extensive experience as expert witnesses and is accustomed to having their findings tested under cross-examination. Principals Dave Pizzini and Richard Middleton are certificate holders in AWI.
