Though the global economy presents expansive opportunities for businesses, global operations and interests create processes which often must be monitored closely for compliance risks.
Our attorneys have advised clients on FCPA matters, including internal and government investigations, in more than 40 countries throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, and North and South America.
We are global anti-corruption and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) counsel to multiple Fortune 500 companies and many other public, private and nonprofit entities across industries including manufacturing, medical devices, healthcare, healthcare information technology, logistics, media, technology and retail.
Our Washington, D.C.-based team members interact regularly with key enforcement agencies, but we provide exceptional cost efficiency because many of our team members are based in the lower-cost Nashville, Tennessee market.
