Fraud Investigations & Disciplinary Hearings

Posted on 22nd November 2022 • Categories: Legal Investigations

Transcribing Suspect Interviews:-

One of the most important ways that transcription services help in fraud cases is by actually recording the interviews when people are accused. Multiple interviews are usually conducted, and these help the investigating officer find out whether the facts that are being told don’t match up.  After all, it’s hard for many people to tell the same story twice, especially when they aren’t telling the truth in the first place, confusing even for trained investigators to find out the true facts.

Transcribing Witness Interviews:-

Another major benefit of using a transcription service in a fraud case is that you will be able to record witness interviews of people who may know something about potential fraud being committed in the workplace. When recording these interviews, the investigator working on the case will be able to look back through the interviews and remember the relevant points of the case.

Police Under Caution Interviews:-

When interviews are being used for legal investigations, we have to provide a complete transcript of every spoken word.  We are committed to extract and transcribe sensitive material that needs to be completely verbatim for legal purposes. The transcripts are often read out in court, so concentration is key, in order to pick up every spoken word, sigh, cough, mutter etc.

Disciplinary Hearings:-

By having a disciplinary hearing transcribed verbatim, you will have a full account of what has been said, including all the swear words, threats towards the interviewer, and anything else that might come in useful if matters are taken further.

Because of the sensitive nature of a disciplinary hearing, it can be hard for all parties involved to stay focused and on track. Keeping notes on what is said is not easy, particularly when there are several people all talking at once. Making an audio recording of the meeting enables you to have everything transcribed, in detail.

Summary:-

Midlands Transcription Services have been instructed on many occasions to provide transcripts of confidential interviews within the workplace, whether this be a small company or a large organisation, for legal matters such as police under caution interviews, HMRC fraud investigations and also, for benefit and tenancy fraud within council authorities.  So we have a vast amount of experience of transcribing interviews which are of a highly sensitive nature.
