When necessary, I represent these parties in connection with investigations, compliance reviews enforcement and litigation.Government contractsMany of our clients do substantial business with the federal government, often on the basis of long-term contracts and regulatory agreements.

I enjoy the opportunity—in meetings and conferences with government and industry leaders, in law school interviews and through webinars and other social media—to share innovative ideas and to exchange perspectives.
