About

Provided by Goodwin Procter LLP

Goodwin is a power-player in the Massachusetts white collar defense and government investigations market. Our team of experienced litigation and enforcement attorneys has differentiated itself from peers, establishing a reputation as “go to” counsel for representing:

·      Individuals (including c-suite executives and directors and officers) in criminal litigation and high-profile government investigations;

·      Technology and enterprise software companies in employment, cybersecurity, compliance and investigations;

·      The numerous, prominent colleges and universities in Massachusetts in sensitive litigation and investigations; and

·      Life Sciences and biotechnology companies in SEC enforcement actions and government investigations.

Our work consistently yields positive outcomes for our clients, including instances where the SEC has concluded its investigation without any enforcement action, we have interfaced directly with government regulators to narrow the scope of their subpoenas, or, if a matter has proceeded to trial we have successfully defended our clients and mitigated sentencing.
