Refining your anti-corruption compliance and operational strategy for China is more critical than ever before.

Latham & Watkins’ White Collar Defense & Investigations Practice represents organizations and individuals in the most sensitive and high-stakes corporate crises. Government investigations are enormously challenging for both organizations and executives. Employees feel intense stress, customers and investors demand action, individuals fear personal disaster, and critics multiply.

When even small, short-term actions can have long-term unintended consequences, a legal team that understands these complexities can make all the differences. Latham’s White Collar Defense & Investigations Practice includes 40 partners throughout the US and around the world. The team features regulatory practitioners, career defense advocates, and former high-ranking government lawyers from Republican and Democratic administrations. Latham lawyers are experienced in every substantive area, from securities regulation to healthcare fraud to export controls to environmental enforcement.

While every investigation is different, Latham’s White Collar Defense & Investigations Practice organizes its approach around certain common principles.calculated steps that we and the company or individual agree are proportionate to the situation.

Conducting business in the global marketplace presents a multitude of financial and operational challenges, and can expose companies to a variety of risks, including bribery and corruption activity. Companies that run afoul of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other similar laws in foreign jurisdictions face challenging and potentially costly impacts on their businesses. Fines and penalties from government regulatory authorities, the potential disruption to ongoing business operations, reputational risk, and the negative impact on employees are typical outcomes following the discovery of such improper practices. Companies with effective compliance programs, including robust monitoring and training processes, may be in a position to prevent potential problems or detect and remediate them in a timely manner. Most regulators and law enforcement agencies consider robust compliance programs a key factor in whether to pursue enforcement actions.
