The world’s most sophisticated business organizations turn to Covington for anti-corruption advice and investigative counsel.
With roots in the conception of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), Covington has been a leading voice on U.S. legislation and policy relating to anti-corruption enforcement and compliance, as well as on new legislation around the world, including the U.K. Bribery Act.
Our global practice has garnered the attention of numerous publications, including Global Investigations Review, Chambers, and Legal 500.
As the home to a former U.S. Attorney General, two former heads of the U.S. Department of Justice’s Criminal Division, and numerous other former high-ranking prosecutors, Covington has unmatched expertise in guiding clients safely through this prevailing climate of heightened enforcement.
We are also one of the few firms in the world to have a senior lawyer resident in China who focuses on anti-corruption counseling and investigations.
Across both counseling and investigations, our anti-corruption team is able to provide “24-hour” real-time support to our clients with seamless coordination across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Our team has handled matters throughout the world, including in Brazil, China, Eastern Europe, Germany, India, Indonesia, Mexico, the Middle East, Russia, South Korea, and the UK.
We are further distinguished by our ability to translate nuanced legal analysis into practical advice that makes sense to business clients. With more than 35 years of experience advising companies on the toughest compliance questions, conducting internal investigations, and helping to design and implement effective compliance programs, we have the experience and sophistication to guide clients through the prevailing climate of heightened enforcement.
