Cori A. Lable
Expertise Based Abroad

Cori Lable is based in Kirkland & Ellis's Los Angeles office. She is recognised as an expert on matters relating to anti-corruption and financial misconduct, as well as internal investigations. She boasts extensive knowledge in a wide range of jurisdictions including China, Japan and Malaysia.

She's very commercial. She tells us what the red lines and bottom lines are and I feel very comfortable that she'll do enough to ensure we are protected but not being overly cautious or conservative.

Her experience in Asia is invaluable. There is no person like Cori who understands us. I have so much confidence that she will never have wrong answers. She is definitely the best for me in Asia.
