About this Webinar

Behind every investigation is a story that shapes how we work forever. In this session, Cristina shares anonymised real-world cases that left a lasting impact — from critical mistakes and unexpected breakthroughs to ethical dilemmas and cross-team tensions. Each case highlights practical lessons on evidence handling, collaboration, decision-making and defensibility that attendees can apply to their own investigations.
