Miller & Chevalier is recognized by Chambers Global and Chambers USA as a leader in FCPA-related and global anti-corruption investigations, counseling, and compliance. We are consistently ranked as a top FCPA firm in both publications, which points to our "broad spread of talent at both partner and associate level" and notes we are "frequently called upon to handle high-stakes global investigations involving jurisdictions considered at high risk for corruption." For over 40 years, from our offices near the FCPA enforcement agencies in Washington, DC, we have partnered with our clients to help them successfully manage and prevent significant FCPA and corruption-related financial and reputational risks.
Our clients include a cross-section of Global 100 corporations as well as emerging companies and individuals, many of whom have engaged us for a decade or more as they have expanded their businesses around the world. Our team of lawyers includes one of the "deans of the international trade bar," former prosecutors, former in-house counsel, and several current and former Independent Compliance Monitors.
