Agree on the assignment
Identify the stage, deadlines and specific preparation products requested. A chronology, source index, personal biography and practical calendar serve different purposes. Confirm recipients and review points before collecting or transmitting sensitive material.
Keep legal and specialist roles clear
Counsel controls legal advice, strategy and submissions. Financial and technical experts address matters within their qualifications. SAG organizes individual preparation and factual questions; it does not offer forensic accounting or legal conclusions about disputed transactions.
Use traceable drafts
Label sources, recollections and unresolved issues. Keep versions and factual changes visible so counsel can review efficiently. A polished narrative should not obscure uncertainty or suggest that unverified statements have been independently confirmed.
Coordinate the next stage
Revisit scope as the matter moves from investigation to any plea, presentence process or surrender. An engagement does not automatically establish privilege. Confirm handling expectations with counsel and avoid sending sensitive case allegations through a general inquiry form.

Sources and professional scope
Official starting points: United States Sentencing Commission economic-offense guidelines. Counsel evaluates current authorities, the applicable guideline version and the individual facts. These resources do not decide the outcome of a particular case. Sources checked November 6, 2026.
SAG provides defined personal and professional preparation: a chronology, source index, factual review questions and practical calendar as agreed. Counsel controls legal advice, responses and submissions. SAG is not a law firm, forensic accounting provider or compliance certifier. An engagement does not automatically establish privilege.
Based in New Jersey, SAG serves clients nationwide, with travel arranged for cases. No charging decision, sentence, financial result, placement or release date is guaranteed.
For counsel: Discuss Support for Your Client. Begin with the role, stage and deadline, not privileged advice or credentials, in the inquiry form.
