    EOLIS's proprietary database of lawyers and law firms is valuable because the Company places significant attention on the validation of crowd-sourced data. Wendeen Eolis states “Our goal is to make our gossip better than your facts!”

    Due Diligence Studies - For Law Firms

    EOLIS also assists law firms in due diligence studies and evaluations in conjunction with searches by law firms for top-level rainmaking talent and senior leadership roles for corporate law departments, C-Suites, and governments.

    EOLIS due diligence reports reflect a three-pronged process we call the PP Principle: probe, evaluate and predict knowledgeably. Due diligence reports are customized to fit client needs and on occasion include collaboration with others beyond our noted expertise to assure full compliance with laws that affect investigations.

    Human Resources Initiatives

    We work with human resources professionals and employment lawyers on employment terms, departures, career transition services, and related matters, as needed. We also collaborate with executives on negotiation strategies for contracts that may impact their lives, far beyond their workplace.
