OUR practice

Criminal Practice

Our criminal practice focuses on federal and state white collar investigations and prosecutions. While it is our goal to avoid indictment, if a sound result cannot be achieved short of trial, we defend our clients with the experience that comes from having tried over 50 criminal cases. Ours is a national practice that includes cases that have received significant media attention including federal investigations into the Iran-Contra affair, Operation Ill Wind, and the 1996 Election Cycle. Our experience in criminal investigations and trials includes:



               
  • Election law fraud
  • Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violations
  • Military Courts Martial
  • Government Contract fraud
  • Procurement Integrity Act Violations
  • Fraud involving Aircraft parts
  • Health care fraud
  • Independent Counsel / Special Prosecutor Investigations

Civil Practice

We focus our civil trial practice on business litigation. We prefer the use of non-traditional or alternative fee arrangements that involve sharing risks and rewards with our clients. Using the most advanced technology available, we staff our cases with small teams, which results in a more focused vision and more consistent successes. Like our criminal practice, our civil litigation practice is national. We often collaborate with larger firms on complex litigation matters. Our litigation experience includes:

  • Contract Disputes
  • Defective technology
  • Intellectual Property
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Insurance Coverage (Policyholders)
  • Professional negligence
  • Business Fraud and Breach of Fiduciary Duty
  • Internal Investigations
  • Government Contracts
  • False Claims Act and Qui Tam Suits
  • Business Libel and Slander
  • Trade Secrets
