Attorney Biography
My primary motivation is to do right by my clients. My clients trust me with their livelihoods and, at times, with their freedoms. I take their trust seriously and strive to be the best advocate and counsel for them.I am analytical and steadfast in the way I handle a case. Clients usually come to us when they go through some of the most difficult times of their lives. Sometimes, they feel overwhelmed and scared. If I am overwhelmed and scared, they will not feel safe with me. I look at the facts; I look at the problems; and I immediately begin looking for solutions to establish a path to help my clients without wasting any time.
I represent companies and individuals in criminal and white-collar criminal investigations and trials, as well as parallel civil and administrative litigation and proceedings. As part of my practice, I advise clients on economic sanctions administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (OFAC), the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), and the Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Bank Secrecy Act (BSA). I have also represented clients in matters before the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), State Attorneys General, and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
