Ford O’Brien Landy LLP is a litigation boutique with offices in New York, Austin, and Miami. At Ford O’Brien Landy LLP, our team of innovative, skilled, and passionate lawyers prides itself on guiding businesses, and professionals through complex, and often daunting legal challenges. We focus our practice on representing clients in high-stakes commercial disputes, and defending clients that are subject to regulatory investigative, and enforcement proceedings as well as prosecution for white-collar crimes.  Our attorneys have successfully navigated clients through many high-profile financial, securities fraud, and cross-border matters. Our victories have included a full acquittal after a federal criminal trial of a hedge fund CFO, dismissals of federal and state indictments and complaints, closures without charges of investigations of our clients by prosecutors and regulators, and numerous favorable settlements in complex civil matters.  As a boutique firm, we can approach our client’s case in a streamlined and efficient manner, without the burdens and (sometimes extraordinary) expense that comes from hiring a large firm. We know how to skillfully prepare a comprehensive strategy that will allow us to address all aspects of a case while balancing our client’s complex interests.
