About

Provided by Ford O’Brien Landy, LLP

At Ford O’Brien Landy LLP, we provide aggressive representation to individuals and companies facing federal and state white collar investigations and prosecutions. Several of our attorneys previously served in government and law enforcement roles and bring extensive trial experience to every case. With decades of experience inside and outside government, we develop strategic defenses tailored to each client’s circumstances. Our results include federal trial acquittals, dismissals of indictments and complaints, and successful resolutions of investigations without charges.

We have represented officers, executives, brokers, and domestic and international companies in complex criminal and regulatory matters. Our team works to protect clients’ freedom, careers, assets, and reputations while minimizing the impact of public scrutiny in high-profile cases.

Our white collar defense practice includes matters involving mail and wire fraud, insider trading, securities fraud, and money laundering. We represent startups, financial professionals, and Fortune 500 companies facing allegations of fraud and financial misconduct. Our attorneys understand how to build strong defenses against both criminal and civil claims and work to limit the long-term impact these allegations may have on clients’ futures.
