Managing White Collar Legal Issues is an authoritative, insider's perspective on best practices for representing corporate and individual clients in white collar cases. Featuring partners and chairs from some of the nation s leading law firms, these experts guide the reader on how to respond to government investigations and audits, including managing documents, evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of the case, and helping the client determine the appropriate level of cooperation with the government. These top lawyers reveal their advice on how to work with white collar clients in cases ranging from tax fraud to securities and health care fraud, outlining strategies for interacting with in-house counsel, obtaining key information, and managing expectations. Additionally these leaders offer strategies for managing parallel criminal and civil cases, list key elements in developing effective compliance programs, and discuss recent enforcement trends and regulatory developments. Inside the Minds provides readers with proven business intelligence from C-Level executives (Chairman, CEO, CFO, CMO, Partner) from the world's most respected companies nationwide, rather than third-party accounts from unknown authors and analysts. Each chapter is comparable to an essay/thought leadership piece and is a future-oriented look at where an industry, profession or topic is headed and the most important issues for the future.
