Our engagements typically arise out of government investigations or enforcement actions focusing on our clients’ business activities. Common allegations include misusing company funds, conflicts of interest, misrepresentations in investment fundraising, false statements to banks and other lenders, inaccurate accounting entries, insider trading, Ponzi schemes, misstatements related to the sale of securities, trading misconduct, market manipulation, money laundering, deficient compliance controls, sanctions and export control violations, and anticompetitive conduct.
Because severe penalties and other significant consequences can arise from criminal or civil enforcement actions, including terms of imprisonment, fines, disgorgement, asset forfeiture, debarment, and reputational harm, companies and executives confronting allegations of business misconduct should always consider retaining experienced counsel. Counsel at the Treanor Law Firm frequently represents institutions and individuals before prosecutors and other government enforcement agencies in investigations of fraud and other business crimes and has consistently achieved outstanding results.
