Described in Benchmark Litigation as one of the “brightest litigators across the U.S.” and Chambers as “incredibly smart” and “tenacious, engaging and hard charging,” Vicki Chou is an accomplished trial lawyer and a key member of Hueston Hennigan’s Trial Practice and White Collar and Investigations teams. She is a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, the preeminent organization of trial lawyers in North America, which is composed of less than one percent of the total lawyer population of any state or province.

Ms. Chou represents individuals and companies in high-stakes business disputes and criminal matters, including complex commercial litigation, intellectual property matters, SEC enforcement actions, shareholder litigation and white collar criminal defense. She has earned high praise for her courtroom skills, including from the judge after a 10-week trial for an “unparalleled” and “extraordinary” performance. She is equally effective outside the courtroom, whether that be termination of a high-stakes criminal investigation or a quiet pre-litigation settlement in a sensitive matter.

A former assistant U.S. Attorney in the Central District of California where she was a deputy chief, Ms. Chou represented the U.S. in hundreds of criminal cases including computer and internet fraud, intellectual property, money laundering, cryptocurrency, bank fraud, tax fraud, immigration fraud, drug trafficking and racketeering offenses.

Ms. Chou is also an active member of the legal community, serving on the boards of multiple organizations, including as president of the Southern California Chinese Lawyers Association. Ms. Chou also serves on the Merit Selection Panel for the Central District of California, where she assists in evaluating and recommending to the District Judges the best qualified applicants for appointment to the position of United States Magistrate Judge.
