Crisis Management, Internal Investigations and White-Collar Defense
The government enforcement landscape is changing rapidly. Williams Mullen’s crisis management, investigations and white-collar defense team partners with clients to navigate shifting cross-jurisdictional enforcement priorities, while balancing compliance concerns with business considerations. We provide corporations and individuals with strategic counseling to navigate fast-moving challenges. Our team quickly mobilizes to provide legal advice on internal and government investigations, potential prosecutions, and threatened civil litigation.
Our attorneys include former federal and state prosecutors, including a former state Chief Deputy Attorney General, former Assistant United States Attorneys, a Compliance Monitor, Special Master and a former Assistant Special Counsel. We are seasoned criminal defense attorneys and civil litigators. Our deep experience provides valuable insight into how to effectively advocate for our clients.
Now more than ever, clients need proactive legal advice and counseling to spot landmines today and years in the future. We are a multidisciplinary, collaborative team that counsels clients across areas such as immigration, labor and employment, construction, environmental, financial services, government contracts and procurement, education and health care. The firm’s deep understanding of the unique regulatory landscape of our clients, combined with our experience in navigating all manner of enforcement actions, allows us to quickly and efficiently respond.
Our team provides advice and counseling to preempt crises and keep matters out of litigation. When litigation is needed, however, our deep trial and appellate experience comes to bear. Our attorneys have collectively tried hundreds of cases to verdict. We appear in federal and state courts throughout the United States and navigate matters before all manner of federal and state enforcement and regulatory bodies. Our attorneys represent clients through internal investigations, grand jury investigations, civil investigative demands, trials and appeals.
