White Collar Criminal and Regulatory Defense
We provide an insider’s perspective and the experience to vindicate your interests and defend your name in complex criminal and regulatory matters.
Our team, which includes a former federal prosecutor and former in-house counsel for a healthcare organization, a former FBI agent, and multiple former federal and state judicial law clerks, gives you an insiders’ perspective on criminal and regulatory investigations and prosecutions and has the experience needed to vigorously defend your interests. Even the most careful and honest businesses and individuals can unwittingly find themselves under the microscope of federal and state prosecutors, regulators, and law enforcement agents. We stand with our organizational and individual clients in the face of complex investigations and prosecutions and provide them the advice and advocacy they need to gain peace of mind and to clear their names. We are also prepared to take your case to trial if needed, having tried dozens of criminal cases.
We have significant experience representing individuals and entities all over the United States in criminal and regulatory investigations and prosecutions, including parallel civil and criminal investigations alleging fraud, embezzlement, cybercrimes, healthcare fraud, environmental crimes, corruption, securities fraud, tax crimes, RICO matters, among many others. In each case, we proactively achieve the best possible outcomes for our clients.
