New Dawn Raid app a practical guide on how to respond to a regulator's doorknock

Sydney, 14 August 2014: Clayton Utz has launched a new web-based 'Dawn Raid' application (Dawn Raid app) that provides users with a practical, step-by-step guide on what to do if they receive a surprise visit from a regulatory authority.

The Dawn Raid app provides a checklist of "to do" items which will assist in ensuring that a company complies with a regulator's search warrant.

It is split into sections: what to do at the start of a raid; what to do during a raid; and what to do following a raid.

The app includes functionality which allows the user to identify the closest legal contact familiar with the company and the particular regulatory authority conducting the raid, and provides the user with ability to call or email those persons, or contact their preferred lawyer at Clayton Utz, via the app.
