The strength of Baker McKenzie’s investigations and enforcement 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. Collectively, we have more than 150 years of DOJ and SEC 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 businesses, executives and employees in ground-breaking cases, including noteworthy criminal FCPA, antitrust, tax, securities, immigration and fraud matters. We represent multinational corporations as well as individuals in these matters.
Chambers Review
Baker McKenzie offers one of the most expansive and established international footprints in the legal industry, and its global reach is frequently referenced by multinational clients as one of its primary assets. The New York office acts as an important hub of lawyers with international experience and expertise across multiple areas, offering a full-service scope. The law firm enjoys an excellent reputation for its international and cross-border capabilities and is often praised for the smooth execution and collaboration clients experience across the firm's network.
For corporate investigations, the law firm has a large, globally integrated practice with a particularly coordinated offering between its London, New York and Chicago teams to provide an effective cross-border service to its clients. It offers experience in internal investigations related to FCPA matters and is able to draw upon the local expertise of a wide array of countries, due to its impressively vast global network.
