Third Party Audits

Failure to comply with the Immigration Reform and Control Act (“IRCA”) can have potentially catastrophic legal and financial impact on a business.

Many businesses have a long-standing practice of verifying the legal work status of their employees and established compliance policies and procedures. However, minor technical mistakes or omissions on Form I-9 documents can still aggregate substantial fines during an official Department of Homeland Security inspection.

Our experienced lawyers provide comprehensive, third-party audits of your company's existing Form I-9 rosters. By conducting a detailed, independent examination under attorney-client privilege, we are able to:

1
Isolate Record Deficiencies Detect missing documents, un-signed fields, or invalid List combination vouchers across your active payroll.
2
Advise on Remedial Correction Methods Establish legally compliant corrections (correctly dating, initialing, and memo-noting amends without destroying the original document schema or creating backdating violations).
3
Construct Privilege Protection By retaining legal counsel to direct third-party audits, errors discovered can be corrected before DHS investigators serve an inspection notice, keeping correction histories confidential.

Securing a proactive compliance audit is the single most effective legal mechanism to reduce risk. Protect your enterprise, prevent costly administrative errors, and confirm that your archive is audit-ready.
