Government Investigations & White Collar Defense

When prosecutors or government regulators are involved, the stakes could not be higher. Our team of litigators, many of whom are former federal and state prosecutors, bring years of experience and knowledge in defending individuals and corporations in regulatory and criminal investigations across the United States and internationally.

We bring extensive trial experience and are highly skilled in responding to search warrants, subpoenas, and requests for information as well as advising clients through complex grand jury investigations and achieving favorable dispositions of regulatory and criminal cases brought by the federal and state governments. We also regularly conduct thorough and effective internal corporate investigations to mitigate the impact of misconduct and minimize the corporation’s potential exposure to civil and criminal penalties.
