Leveraging my experience as a former Regional Trial Counsel for the U.S. SEC's Los Angeles Regional Office, I now focus my private practice on regulatory compliance, investigations, and dispute resolution. I advise clients on compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the UK Bribery Act, AML statutes, OFAC, and other anti-corruption laws and regulations worldwide. To do so, I conduct risk assessments and then design, implement, execute and monitor global anti-corruption compliance programs. And because of the increasing concern about protecting privacy and personal data, my compliance efforts further focus on assessing cybersecurity risks, and advising on potential solutions.In addition, I represent and defend companies and individuals involved in various types of government investigations and enforcement actions, and take those matters through trial if necessary. I have tried, litigated, or arbitrated matters concerning alleged accounting fraud, insider trading, offering fraud, market manipulation, hedge fund fraud, '33 Act, '34 Act, and '40 Act violations, and alleged compliance failures.
