CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATIONS
Our investigations team has deep experience helping businesses, corporate executives, and government officials respond to various types of congressional inquiries. We guide clients throughout the congressional investigations process, from responding to requests for information or subpoenas to preparing testimony for hearings. Our team of former federal prosecutors, litigators, and criminal defense attorneys are especially skilled in identifying parallel criminal, regulatory, or civil litigation risks which can arise from congressional investigations, and also in managing media scrutiny and associated reputational risks.
Several of our attorneys have had long careers in government service and have close familiarity with major investigative committees and subcommittees. Our former government experience includes, from the Department of Justice; Criminal Division (Fraud Section), and Antitrust Division; and from the U.S. Attorney’s Offices for the District of Columbia, Northern District of Illinois, and Southern District of New York, including a chief of SDNY’s Major Crimes Unit, and a founder of that office’s Computer Hacking and Intellectual Property Crimes Unit. From the Department of Homeland Security, a senior counselor to the secretary. From the Department of Defense, a special counsel to the department’s general counsel, assistant to the Department of the Army’s General Counsel, and Army, Air Force, and Navy officers with service including in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and on the Joint Staff. From the Intelligence Community, CIA and NSA officers. From the Securities and Exchange Commission, a commissioner, and a senior litigation counsel. And from Congress, special counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Examples of our experience in assisting clients in congressional investigations include:
