Matthew L. Schwartz Email & Phone Number

After more than nine years at the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's Office, I joined Boies Schiller Flexner as a partner in January 2015. My practice focuses on government and internal investigations, white collar defense, regulatory compliance, and complex civil litigation. While a member of the Securities and Commodities Fraud Task Force at the U.S. Attorney's Office, I led a number of high profile matters, including the $1.7 billion deferred prosecution of JPMorgan Chase Bank on Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering charges; the investigation and prosecutions related to the so-called "London Whale" trades; and all aspects of the government's investigation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, including a six-month long jury trial, the forfeiture of more than $9 billion, and the Department of Justice's largest and most ambitious victim remission program. I was also privileged to represent the United States in some equally visible civil matters, including serving as the lead trial lawyer for the Treasury Department and the Presidential Task Force on the Auto Industry during the historic bankruptcy of General Motors, which led to the creation of "New GM."
