Receipt of a civil investigative demand (CID) is typically the first step in the CFPB’s investigative process. CID recipients may be asked to produce documents and data, respond to written questions, or provide sworn testimony at a CFPB investigational hearing. Hudson Cook lawyers have assisted clients in responding to countless CIDs and have a deep understanding of the CFPB’s rules governing CID responses. We assist clients on all aspects of their CID response, from hearing preparations to large-scale document review and production. At the same time, we counsel clients on how to exercise their rights, assert privileges, and negotiate modifications to a CID.
