Our Government Investigations and Enforcement Actions team recognizes that the stakes could not be higher when facing investigatory scrutiny and claims from the SEC, the Department of Justice, state attorneys general, FINRA, and other regulators. The "David vs. Goliath" dynamics of such investigations coupled with what often seems like a pre-determined view of the facts by the investigators, can feel overwhelming. We strive to level the playing field for our clients – fearlessly defending your best interests and enabling you to remain focused on business. Drawing on decades of experience working pragmatically with federal and state regulators, we help you to understand and critically evaluate the investigatory focus and the range of exposure. We then guide you through the complicated cost/benefit assessment that helps us to jointly arrive at and implement the best strategy to head off, compromise, or defeat the government’s claims.
Of course, regulatory compliance on the front end is the best way to minimize the risk of after-the-fact scrutiny and resulting exposure. As a multi-disciplinary firm, we routinely collaborate with our business and transactional attorneys to help you navigate federal and state regulations as you set up or expand your business. We work with you to structure your operations to proactively meet mandates, and we can help you develop and implement compliance programs tailored for your employees and industry – at cost-effective rates that other firms would be hard-pressed to match.
We represent clients facing government investigations and enforcement actions focusing on, without limitation:
