Practice Areas
Corporate entities and individuals who need advice or representation in investigations and litigation have called upon Alan Brudner for more than 35 years. With experience both as a federal prosecutor and as head of litigation and investigations at one of the most prominent financial institutions in the world, Alan brings extensive knowledge, a multifaceted perspective and a practical approach to all of his matters.
Alan has represented clients in a broad range of investigations by the Department of Justice, US Attorney's Offices, the Securities and Exchange Commission, FINRA, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and other regulators. He has also represented clients in Congressional committee investigations. In addition, he represents clients in civil securities and business litigation, and has significant experience representing hospitals and public entities in False Claims Act cases.
All of his clients get the benefit of his broad experience, his sensitivity to business concerns and his skill, discretion and good judgment in dealing with their legal issues as well as with the regulators, prosecutors and adversaries they face.
Alan has successfully tried complex cases before federal juries, represented clients in administrative hearings and argued appeals before the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. He won a significant pro bono appeal in which the court held that a defendant is entitled to a writ of habeas corpus if his conviction resulted from perjured testimony, even if the prosecutor was unaware of the perjury at the time of trial.
