Financial institutions and financial services companies that have received government financial relief funds face new litigation risks and heavy penalties with the passage of FERA and a newly amended False Claims Act.
We ve assembled a first-rate faculty of lawyers who are extremely well-versed with government investigations, FCA litigation, white collar crime, FI fraud, and FI compliance issues. Add to that an agenda that hits all the hot-button issues, plus in-house counsel and regulators on the front lines, and the result is a unique opportunity to sort through the issues at an advanced, practical level so you can ensure compliance, avoid liability, and appropriately defend your client in the midst of new legislation, stepped-up scrutiny and enforcement, and increased penalties.

- Minimizing risks of public disclosure and private litigation
