Hand & Heart GmbH
Europe’s specialist in cross-border workplace investigations, corporate intelligence, and employee-retained investigations, operating across the EU, UK, and international jurisdictions. We work with organisations navigating complex misconduct, fraud, or conflict, and, as one of the few firms in Europe to do so, we also work for the employees at the centre of those processes.
Whatever side of the table you’re on, you deserve a thorough, independent, and legally sound investigation. That’s what we deliver.
What we do
For organisations that need answers and the expertise to act on them.
When something goes wrong inside an organisation, or before it does, you need more than a checklist. You need experienced investigators who understand the legal landscape, the human dynamics, and the cross-border complexity that defines modern cross-border business. Six specialist practice areas. One integrated approach. No generic templates, no shortcuts.
We are one of the few firms in Europe offering employee-retained investigations: on behalf of employees, individuals, trade unions, and those who need someone in their corner. Whether you are a whistleblower, dealing with unfair dismissal, fighting back against retaliation, or simply trying to stand for your rights in workplace or corporate conflict: we gather the evidence, build the case, and offer strategic counselling and advice to bring your case to resolution.
Training is not an afterthought or a bolt-on service. Every investigation we run, every intelligence report we produce, every labour dispute we navigate we take those lessons and build them into practical, applied training that leaves your teams genuinely better prepared.
Bespoke training programmes for HR, compliance, legal, and management teams built on real investigation experience. Workshops, masterclasses, and advisory retainers available worldwide.
