Before joining WilmerHale, Mr. Lin was an associate at another global law firm in San Francisco. He has handled securities enforcement matters, internal investigations, and civil and criminal allegations of corporate and financial misconduct.

He was previously a public defender and has tried many matters to jury verdict. He has achieved acquittals and dismissals in complex criminal cases in state and federal court alleging violations of, inter alia, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, the Street Terrorism Enforcement and Prevention Act, and laws prohibiting fraud and other financial crime.
