Additionally, Dan focuses on the intersection of international business and national security matters such as U.S. economic sanctions, export controls, antiboycott measures, and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Dan provides comprehensive international trade law compliance guidance, including to U.S. and international clients that provide goods and services that may be regulated due to national security reasons.
