EXPERIENCED DEFENSE ATTORNEYI am an experienced white-collar criminal defense attorney. I represent individuals and companies in connection with allegations of accounting fraud, securities fraud, insider trading, honest services fraud, public corruption, criminal antitrust violations, FCPA violations, and tax fraud.I also represent clients in SEC investigations and enforcement actions, including obtaining a defense verdict in one of the few financial crisis cases to go to trial and successfully representing the former CEO of Fannie Mae. My practice also includes representing individuals and companies being investigated by other state and federal agencies and state attorneys general.TAILORED RESPONSEI am ready to fight the DOJ or the SEC all the way to trial, but I also understand that not every client or every case requires the same approach. I tailor my representation to the specific facts, circumstances and needs of my clients, who sometimes seek a resolution short of trial.FOCUS ON FINANCE AND TECHNOLOGY I have extensive experience representing clients in the finance, accounting, and banking sectors. Likewise, I have represented numerous individuals and companies in the technology and software sectors.COMPLEX BUSINESS LITIGATION EXPERIENCEIn addition to my white-collar criminal defense and government investigation experience, I have years of experience handling complex business litigation for technology companies in the Bay Area. I secured a favorable settlement for an enterprise and mobile software company against breach of contract and related claims brought by foreign plaintiff who alleged that he had entered into a joint venture with a company subsequently acquired by our client. I also helped defend a leading Internet search engine in a high-stakes binding arbitration against claims for hundreds of millions in earn-out compensation arising out of a merger. A three-judge panel found in favor of our client on all counts.
