Enforcement Defense

Lead internal investigations, including working directly with clients on Code of Business Conduct/Spirit of the Law investigations.  Engage in voluntary disclosures to governmental agencies/law enforcement where warranted, and represent clients in ensuing or related proceedings to avoid potential criminal liability and resolve matters on a civil or administrative basis.  In this context, work with clients in proceedings involving local District Attorneys’ offices, California Circuit Prosecutors, U.S. Attorneys’ offices, and their client agencies and/or investigative teams.  Sometimes this work involves representation of “target” entities; other times the work involves cooperation with governmental entities as a “witness” or otherwise cooperating entity.
