Over the past decade, investigations into alleged corporate wrongdoing have included heightened scrutiny of the conduct of officers, directors and professionals - including in-house counsel. In many cases, these investigations have resulted in criminal charges against these individuals. In the past two months, a former GlaxoSmithKline in-house counsel was indicted on charges of obstruction of justice, and the SEC decided to review the case of a former general counsel who was accused of failing to control someone he supervised. This program will explore recent government actions and policy statements that focus on prosecuting corporate individuals.

WilmerHale partner William McLucas is a featured panelist at this event.
