Teresa Leigh's firm conducts continuing research to identify areas of risk associated with a high profile lifestyle, specifically areas of fraud, breaches in personal security and privacy, violent crime, identity theft, and increased lawsuits brought against high profile individuals. This research is used to educate clients and organizations about how to protect themselves against the hazards of being high profile.

In addition to this research Teresa Leigh's firm launched a web site (www.domesticworkerresearch.com) to conduct risk surveys with domestic workers and vendors. These surveys have produced data that highlight the significance of employer risk, which her company leverages to educate the affluent concerning the liability of employee relationships.
