White Collar Criminal and Regulatory Defense

We represent individuals and corporations at all stages of criminal and regulatory investigations. Our experience is broad: our lawyers specializing in this area have successfully defended clients at the investigatory stage, at trial, and on appeal, and one served as a federal prosecutor in the Southern District of New York. We have particular expertise in the areas of securities, wire, mail, bankruptcy, and tax fraud, as well as criminal RICO and public corruption. We can help clients avoid indictment or regulatory charges, and also have the trial experience to aggressively defend our clients in court if necessary. In addition, we have extensive experience conducting internal investigations for public companies and their audit committees, as well as other institutions, and representing these entities before the Securities and Exchange Commission, the New York Attorney General's Office, and other federal, state, and self-regulatory bodies.
