Some have said that the sweep of American criminal law knows no bounds and respects no borders. While this may be an exaggeration, it is nonetheless true that as clients globalize their markets, they may, through inadvertence or ignorance, face risks of white collar criminality.
In criminal matters of this sort what may start out as an investigation by one country can often lead to prosecution by another. Consequently a working knowledge of the law and procedure of both countries is essential to ensuring the protection of your client's right.
While we would prefer to brief you on the criminal and regulatory aspects of your client's ventures in advance of their activities, this is not always possible. At both the investigatory and accusatory stages we strive to ensure that the rights of your clients are fully protected and that their case is put to its best advantage.
