Regulatory Enforcement & Advocacy
Our Regulatory Enforcement & Advocacy team draws on deep litigation and enforcement experience to guide clients through high-stakes investigations, inquiries and enforcement actions. Backed by former federal and state prosecutors, seasoned trial and appellate lawyers and attorneys with direct agency experience, we understand how regulators operate, how they build cases and how to position clients for the best possible outcome.
Strategic Assessment and Early Response
Our attorneys assess each matter with a clear understanding of the government’s perspective and the client’s exposure. We regularly advise on cooperation decisions, internal investigations and strategies to manage potential civil or criminal risk. We handle outside audits, subpoenas, administrative hearings, governmental investigations and jury trials to verdict. In every matter, we balance legal risk with business realities to minimize disruption and move quickly toward a resolution.
Defense Representation and Advocacy
When litigation becomes necessary, our trial attorneys stand ready to defend clients in state and federal courts, administrative tribunals and before agencies at every level. Our team has extensive experience advocating for corporations, executives, board members, public officials and other high-profile individuals facing regulatory scrutiny or white-collar allegations. We focus on developing practical, effective strategies that manage reputational, financial and legal impact.
Alternative Resolutions and Risk Mitigation
Not every enforcement matter requires full litigation. We frequently resolve issues through arbitration, mediation or negotiated outcomes that reduce cost, limit exposure and avoid severe penalties. For many clients, the best result is one that preserves business stability while achieving a favorable legal outcome. Our work aims to lessen disruption, contain risk and reach the strongest result possible under the circumstances.
Commitment to Client Outcomes
Across every enforcement and investigative matter, our goal remains constant: achieve the most favorable resolution while minimizing negative effects on operations, reputation and long-term business interests. With experience before federal and state agencies and a wide range of adjudicative bodies, we bring informed, strategic and effective advocacy to each stage of the enforcement process.
