Scrutiny of corporate conduct by prosecutors and regulatory agencies continues to increase. Penalties for violations have been toughened, and prosecutors have new tools to persuade companies under investigation to cooperate.
Spencer Fane Britt & Browne’s Criminal Defense Practice focuses on two aspects of criminal law: white collar crime and internal investigations. Throughout the Midwest, we assist clients with all aspects of their defense, and our clientele includes those accused of fraud, tax and banking crimes, healthcare-related charges, environmental offenses, public corruption and securities charges. We also conduct comprehensive internal investigations on behalf of businesses and professional organizations, especially those involving Sarbanes-Oxley certifications and executive malfeasance. Taken together, our Criminal Defense Practice aids our clients both in protecting themselves from criminal activity and defending those people accused of crimes.
