Practice Areas

White Collar Litigation

We represent both plaintiffs and defendants in claims involving antitrust, bank fraud, financial advisor/analyst misconduct, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. We are adept at designing and implementing creative strategies to resolve disputes in these areas.

While our lawyers are considered preeminent litigators, we also possess a thorough understanding of the key issues and financial constraints facing companies today. This financial knowledge helps us bridge the gap between regulators and corporations. Our substantial network of resources and legal capabilities gives us an advantage when coordinating multi-faceted litigation across multiple jurisdictions. We have relationships with lawyers located throughout the world’s major financial and commercial centers, allowing us to work with experts who are well-versed in local laws and practices.

Representative results include:

  • Winning a multi-million dollar settlement on behalf of several investors who were defrauded by one of the United States' largest brokerage firms.
  • Successfully representing a borrower in a case of first impression under Article 16 of the Texas Constitution allowing for homeowners’ equity loans. After proving that the lender issued the loan in violation of the statute, our lawyers negotiated full extinguishment of the client’s debt and obtained additional monetary compensation from the lender.
  • Winning a substantial settlement for a class of purchasers of life insurance policies. The clients had been defrauded into their purchases by false representations about the premium amounts for their policies.
