Protecting What Matters

Threat Investigation and Behavioral Threat Assessment

When a threat of harm first surfaces – to you or your family, to your employees or clients or to others you are responsible for – three actions become urgent and critical.

The first is determining whether the individual truly poses a threat – whether or not they have actually made a threat. The second is assessing the person's potential for violence or "dangerousness". And the third is employing best-practice strategies to increase security and actively manage the threat by integrating and coordinating critical involvement by multiple parties – ranging from law enforcement, clinical psychologists and mental health resources to colleagues, family and friends.

Hillard Heintze's senior experts, qualifications and credentials in these arenas are unparalleled – in the United States and across the world.
