Share This Page:

Defended a healthcare IT contractor in a U.S. Department of Justice criminal and civil investigation alleging that the company's then-CEO conspired to bribe a contracting officer in connection with approximately $550 million in federal contracts. The team worked with the board to separate the CEO and reclassify his shares, and then negotiated an expedited resolution with DOJ that preserved the company's operations and protected hundreds of innocent employees' jobs.  The team also successfully negotiated with the suspension and debarment official to avoid debarment of the company and successfully negotiated with the company’s D&O carrier to obtain a substantial amount of coverage for legal fees.
