Fraud and white collar crime

Acting in such complex and sensitive matters requires more than an understanding of the legal issues. It calls for a strategic and seamless approach and the ability to deal with a range of different law enforcement agencies and regulators, advising on contentious and non-contentious aspects and related matters such as public relations, shareholder communications, insurance and employment issues.  

Our world-class team focuses on white collar crime compliance and investigations work in more than 40 countries spanning Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, the Middle East and the US. 

We work on clients' most significant cases with an established record in matters involving multiple jurisdictions, regulators and law enforcement bodies.  

We help with all aspects of corporate criminal matters including defending companies, senior executives and employees in prosecutions or enforcement actions. We advise on settlements with prosecutors and regulators, asset tracing and recovery and associated disputes, including contentious employment proceedings. 

The range of our work includes: 

• Securities fraud, including insider trading and market manipulation 

• Commodities, banking and accounting fraud 

• Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violations 

• Antitrust, including bid-rigging and price-fixing allegations 

• Consumer fraud 

• Health care fraud 

• Money laundering 

• Federal and state criminal tax investigations 

• Public corruption 

• Obstruction of justice and US federal racketeering actions.
