Leading businesses set a “tone at the top” that reflects sound governance. At the same time, government regulators and law enforcement officials are raising the bar for corporate compliance, dramatically expanding their civil, criminal, administrative and legislative investigations. Andrews Kurth lawyers stay in touch with ethical best practices and counsel our clients on evolving standards in Corporate Compliance, Investigations and Defense (CCID).
In counseling and defending our business clients, we bring a seasoned presence to the boardroom. Drawing on extensive experience and resources, our lawyers handle corporate compliance matters in a practical, professional and confidential manner. Andrews Kurth develops policies, counsels on public disclosures, investigates facts, negotiates resolutions and provides a vigorous defense when necessary.
Dealing with the SEC, DOJ and self-regulatory organizations requires experience and judgment, especially in view of whistleblower claims, increased investigations, and the rising dollar value of securities settlements. The CCID group has extensive experience defending regulatory and government investigations, as well as civil and criminal proceedings initiated by the SEC, DOJ, FINRA, stock exchanges and state regulatory bodies.
