The firm's corporate criminal law practice offers a comprehensive range of services. In addition to handling criminal litigations, includes assisting corporate clients in instituting compliance measures and internal controls aimed at preventing potential criminal wrongdoing; conducting internal investigations (including becoming involved as a member of a corporate investigation committee); assisting clients in responding to regulatory investigation procedures; drawing up procedures for crisis management (including handling communications with regulatory authorities and stock exchanges and assisting with public relations activities); handling the defense of criminal cases (including representing the company, individual officers and directors, and employees); and drawing up post-event recurrence prevention measures.
The firm has handled the defense of a number of high-profile corporate criminal cases that have been brought under a variety of criminal statutes, including securities fraud, insider trading and other violations of securities laws; bribery; tax evasion; bid rigging and other violations of antimonopoly laws; violations of food sanitation laws; and falsification of testing data.
The firm's general dispute resolution practice also enables us to assist clients with ancillary litigation and regulatory proceedings that often arise in connection with criminal wrongdoing in a corporate/commercial context, such as civil cases including shareholder derivative actions, claims for compensation by business partners, and administrative punishments.
