Dorsey’s White Collar Crime and Civil Fraud practice group has extensive experience in assisting domestic and foreign clients in a broad range of representations arising out of grand jury and other law enforcement investigations, administrative agency enforcement proceedings, Congressional inquiries and private civil fraud actions.
Attorneys in this practice group have represented foreign and domestic broker/dealers, hedge funds and other securities industry companies and individuals before the C.F.T.C., S.E.C. and D.O.J. in matters involving securities fraud and insider trading allegations; defended numerous qui tam false claims actions; represented companies and individuals in campaign finance abuse investigations; represented hospitals and other health care providers in federal health care fraud audits, investigations and trials; represented individuals under investigation and at trial for alleged import/export violations; represented companies and individuals in Foreign Corrupt Practices Act investigations; represented companies and individuals in connection with criminal antitrust allegations; represented mortgage companies in connection with HUD lending fraud investigations; and developed compliance programs for companies in government-regulated industries. Additionally, we routinely conduct internal investigations for corporate clients as a result of the enhanced scrutiny now placed upon both public and private businesses, as well as the attendant risks associated with allegations of impropriety.
The attorneys in this practice group have a wide range of trial experiences, including having tried an aggregate of more than 400 jury trials and instructing federal prosecutors in trial advocacy skills at the National Advocacy Center. The London office has particular expertise in advising clients that have suffered from fraud or corruption in the UK and worldwide. We have experience of dealing with fraud investigations throughout the world. For investigations involving both the UK and the US, Dorsey's network of offices ensures a coordinated response across both jurisdictions – including, where relevant, dealing with Sarbanes-Oxley issues.
In addition to our wide experience in conducting fraud investigations, asset recovery actions and applications for interim relief before the English Courts, the London office has established close connections with specialist investigators and with litigators in key financial centers and offshore jurisdictions enabling us to offer an immediate and global response to any fraud and asset recovery issues that arise.
Anti-Fraud Network
The Anti-Fraud Network was founded by the London office. It is a network of lawyers who specialize in the pursuit of claims arising out of the theft or other dishonest appropriation of assets, corruption, misuse of confidential information or similar breaches of duty. Recovering the proceeds of fraud and corruption is one of the truly global problems facing organizations today. Proceeds rarely stay in the country where they have been stolen. For organizations to recover stolen or corrupt assets they need access to lawyers specializing in their recovery across the world.
The Anti-Fraud Network is dedicated to providing access to trusted points of contact across the globe and offering a unified first-class international service to clients, at a time when experience, speed, cooperation and highly responsive service are most important.
