Unexpected Encounters: What To Do When the Government Shows Up

In a climate of heightened regulatory scrutiny, companies and the individuals at the helm now more than ever are susceptible targets of government investigations. If not handled correctly, a government investigation can put you and your company's reputation at risk, trigger civil penalties or criminal fines, and create concurrent litigation.

Arnold & Porter white collar partners and veteran prosecutors Deborah Curtis, Valarie Hays, Giselle Joffre, and Meredith Osborn offer insight from their tenures, both in government and in private practice, on how to prepare for, respond to, and resolve a government investigation.

This multidisciplinary webinar will provide in-house counsel with insight on:

• Defining the scope of an internal investigation
• Evaluating considerations for voluntary disclosure
• Navigating the shoals of cross-border investigations
• Identifying opportunity and peril in government collaborations
