Companies involved in cross-border transactions face numerous regulatory hurdles relating to the export and re-export of sensitive goods and technologies; investments and other dealings having national security implications; and relationships with persons and entities that may be governed by U.S. economic sanctions, anti-money laundering and anti-corruption laws.
Goodwin helps its clients to understand how these laws apply to their business and investment activities, manage risks, and overcome obstacles. Our global team is equally proficient in advising the innovators and investors. This unique combination of deep experience in a rapidly-changing, technology-driven economy sets us apart. We develop and implement compliance programs, conduct client-focused training, and represent clients to obtain licenses, government authorizations, and advisory opinions. We provide transactional support, including by assisting with due diligence; identifying and resolving national security and foreign trade regulation issues that may arise; and drafting agreements to ensure proper attention to these issues. We conduct internal investigations and counsel clients on when voluntary disclosures to the U.S. government may be warranted. And we defend our clients in civil enforcement actions and criminal prosecutions.
