White Collar Defense
Our white collar defense practice handles federal and state investigations involving fraud, tax crimes, and regulatory violations. We represent professionals and corporations from initial investigation through trial, developing strategies tailored to each case's specific circumstances. With experience in sentencing guidelines and plea negotiations, we work to minimize penalties and protect professional reputations.
Civil Litigation
We resolve complex commercial disputes including contract breaches, insurance coverage issues, and partnership conflicts. Our approach focuses on efficient resolution while preparing for trial when necessary. With experience in arbitration and federal court proceedings, we protect client interests in both standalone civil matters and cases with parallel criminal implications.
Monitoring Services
Our monitoring services help organizations prevent corruption through ethics programs and investigative oversight. We serve as private inspectors general for unions and corporations, developing compliance frameworks that avoid government-imposed trusteeships. This includes creating codes of conduct and conducting internal investigations to maintain organizational integrity.
RICO Proceedings
We handle civil and criminal RICO cases involving organized crime infiltration and corporate fraud. Our experience includes negotiating monitorships and defending against racketeering charges. We represent both private entities facing RICO actions and government-appointed monitors managing industry reforms in construction, waste management, and transportation sectors.
Tax Crimes Defense
Our tax crimes defense covers investigations into evasion, reporting violations, and related financial fraud. We represent executives and businesses in IRS audits and criminal proceedings, focusing on penalty mitigation and sentencing reduction strategies.
