A global team handling highly complex and sensitive matters in all aspects of litigation.
Named an “FCPA Powerhouse” and “Practice Group of the Year,” we have been involved in some of the most notable public and non-public cases and key developments related to FCPA and anti-corruption issues.
In recent years, the government has increased its efforts to enforce the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). The number of enforcement actions brought annually by the Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission has grown exponentially, from an average in the low single digits only a few years ago, to more than 30 in both 2007 and 2008. And the trend doesn't look like it's slowing down anytime soon. For a summary of key trends seen in recent FCPA cases that are likely to continue going forward, please see our recent Email Alert.
