Our attorneys are trusted to manage and defend difficult and complex probes and cases. Our practical approach, nuanced legal analysis, and business sensitivity have led individuals, start-ups, and Fortune 100 companies in the U.S. and abroad to seek us out when the government calls.

Overview

We have represented clients in high-stakes enforcement actions, investigations, and criminal matters pursued by virtually every U.S. federal authority that matters—multiple divisions of the Department of Justice, the Federal Reserve, the OCC, the CFTC, the IRS, the CFPB, and HUD, as well as Congress, various U.S. Attorneys’ Offices, more than thirty state attorney general’s offices. Our experience, contacts, and our reputation for integrity with these authorities has enabled us to navigate high-stakes investigations and negotiations with our clients’ confidence to reach for the best possible outcomes. 

Our engagements frequently cross borders—to Europe, Asia, and Latin America. We have represented clients under scrutiny by foreign regulatory bodies including Banco Central de la República Argentina (the Central Bank of Argentina), the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, the European Commission, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong and the Brazilian CADE (the Administrative Counsel for Economic Defense), to name a few. 

Our group is highly proficient in leading thorough, credible and cost-efficient confidential, internal investigations – often-times to satisfy government demands and across countries and continents. We lead these multinational defense and investigatory engagements effectively by working closely as partners with in-country clients and local counsel to leverage their knowledge and reduce costs while bringing U.S. style defense strategies to work for our clients.
