We have experience advising individuals who are under investigation by the police, an institutional employer, or a regulatory body. We understand that a single event may lead to multifaceted legal issues, such as concurrent criminal, civil, and regulatory concerns. We are adept at assisting clients in crisis to mitigate their risk on multiple legal fronts. We often work with individuals who have significant public profiles, and with PR firms and management companies to shape the media message and preserve our clients’ public reputation.
