White Collar Defense

Government investigations have become a fact of life even for the most reputable companies, but few realize that these investigations operate under a very different set of rules. Too often, business owners underestimate the significance of an investigator’s "routine" visit. Criminal investigations are nothing like the civil litigation our business clients already know. Investigations are not contests of equals. Agencies are well-funded, aggressive, and less deterred by the costs of a case than are companies answerable to shareholders. Informed CEOs have learned the importance of proactive compliance efforts, and they aggressively investigate internal reports of wrongdoing should those efforts break down. Ice Miller attorneys draw from experience on both sides of these controversies. We can guide clients through the hazards of the investigative process.
