Our white collar criminal defense group has decades of experience representing corporate entities and individuals in criminal investigations and proceedings. Led by a team of former federal and state prosecutors, this group represents our clients in every phase of a criminal case -- from the inception of an investigation, before the grand jury, at trial and throughout post-trial proceedings. However some of the group's most important and sophisticated work takes place before criminal charges even materialize. Drawing on years of front-line experience, with a credibility developed over years of working with governmental authorities, our lawyers have had considerable success in persuading prosecutors not to pursue criminal charges in the first place -- thus protecting the client from the legal, financial and media fallout of a criminal prosecution.

As former prosecutors and long-time defense lawyers, members of our white collar criminal defense group are also uniquely qualified to conduct internal corporate investigations into suspected wrongdoing or improprieties. Working with accountants, computer forensic and other consultants as needed, our lawyers assist clients in taking a proactive role in uncovering improper conduct by their employees, vendors, officers, directors and others.
