Internal Investigations.
Sometimes legal trouble is not discovered by outsiders (like the federal investigators from the FBI, SEC or HHS), but from within. Regardless of how non-compliance or legal violations are discovered, the time to act is now.

Grand Jury Subpoenas.
If you have been served with a grand jury subpoena for your financial records or other documents, have been asked to testify before the grand jury or to speak to a law enforcement official, do not think you have nothing to hide — even if have not committed a crime. You may unknowingly give officials evidence that can later be used against you.
Search Warrants.
If the government has obtained a search warrant for your company, your office or your house, you know your need immediate legal defense. There are critical steps that need to happen right away, and major mistakes that need to be avoided.
Do Not Speak to Law Enforcement Officials Without Your Lawyer Present.
If you have been asked to talk to law enforcement officials but have not been charged with a crime, it is important to be represented by counsel. We have had clients who have retained our services only after they have talked to the FBI or others in the justice department, to their case's detriment.
Whether you are a high-level executive accused of illegally monitoring e-mail activity at your former company, or you are business owner accused of stealing a competitor's trade secrets or other intellectual property through their computer systems, or you are a young man accused of child pornography on the Internet, we are here to guide you throughout this process.
