Government Investigations & White Collar

When federal, state or local authorities come calling, your business, reputation and future are at stake. We help companies, boards, executives, health care providers, professionals and public officials respond quickly and strategically — and, when necessary, defend them in court.

We have extensive experience representing clients in matters involving the Department of Justice (DOJ); Offices of Inspector General (OIG) across federal agencies; the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS); Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI); Department of Homeland Security (DHS); Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); Small Business Administration (SBA); Department of Defense (DoD); Department of Education (ED); state attorneys general; various regulatory agencies; and congressional committees. We handle every phase of scrutiny: grand jury and civil subpoenas, Civil Investigative Demands, agency inquiry letters, FBI or OIG interview requests and other regulatory demands.

What sets us apart is perspective. Our lawyers draw on a wealth of experience working both inside and outside investigative agencies. We understand not only the needs of our clients, but also how investigators think and act. Our insight allows us to craft effective defense strategies, guide voluntary and mandatory disclosures and recommend pragmatic improvements to compliance systems — always with discretion to protect clients’ privacy.

If an investigation becomes an enforcement action or prosecution, we pivot seamlessly to litigate in federal and state court or advocate for our clients in alternative dispute resolution forums.

Prevention is part of our mandate. We design, review and audit compliance programs; conduct internal investigations and risk assessments; and help clients evaluate self-reporting options that can reduce liability, mitigate penalties and resolve issues efficiently.

At every stage — from the first sign of an inquiry to the courtroom and their collateral consequences — our mission is the same: protecting what matters most to you while helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.
