Provided by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP & Affiliates

Skadden has extensive experience in advising and defending clients in matters involving the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and related international laws. Our work in this area began long before the recent uptick in enforcement by the Securities and Exchange Commission and Department of Justice. We guide global clients through FCPA matters in connection with a variety of industries, such as pharmaceuticals, health care and financial services. Skadden attorneys also advise on FCPA due diligence in connection with M&A and other corporate transactions.

Skadden has a former judge for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York; former U.S. attorneys for the Northern District of Illinois, the District of Massachusetts and the District of Connecticut based in our Chicago, Boston and New York offices, respectively; as well as former assistant U.S. attorneys in our New York, Washington, D.C., London, Chicago and Los Angeles offices. Several former SEC enforcement attorneys, including a former deputy director for enforcement, are resident in Skadden’s Washington, D.C. office, and our London office includes a former senior prosecutor at the Serious Fraud Office.

Our international reach extends to Paris, Frankfurt, Munich, Moscow, Tokyo, Singapore, Hong Kong, Beijing and São Paulo.
