About

Provided by Baker McKenzie

The strength of Baker McKenzie’s corporate crimes practice rests on three foundational elements: our deep bench of experienced practitioners; our ability to quickly form global teams that address the needs of clients worldwide; and our use of the most current technology to coordinate and streamline our work. Our team consists of attorneys with experience working for the Department of Justice, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's Division of Enforcement and various state prosecutors' offices, including the most recent Manhattan District Attorney. Collectively, we have more than 200 years of DOJ, SEC and State prosecutorial experience. Members of our practice have also clerked on federal courts throughout the United States and on the Delaware Chancery Court, and have served in senior in-house roles supervising large, multinational investigations. We have established a local, national and global reputation for successfully defending corporations and their officers and executives in ground-breaking cases, including noteworthy criminal FCPA, antitrust, tax, securities, False Claims Act, sanctions, immigration and fraud matters.
